Stanford Launches Archive of the International Military Tribunal at Nuremberg, 1945-46

The Stanford Libraries have made available the Taube Archive of the International Military Tribunal at Nuremberg, 1945-1946.

The Nuremberg trials are to this day the most prominent international criminal trials.

They were convened after the collapse of the Third Reich to try Nazi leaders in 1945 and 1946 for war crimes and crimes against humanity.

The Taube Archive home page describes the contents:

"The Taube Archive of the International Military Tribunal (IMT) at Nuremberg, 1945-46 archival collection provides access to a digital version of Nuremberg IMT courtroom proceedings and documentation, including evidentiary films, full audio recordings of the proceedings, and approximately 250,000 pages of digitized paper documents. These documents include transcripts of the hearings in English, French, German and Russian; written pleadings; evidence exhibits filed by the prosecution and the defense; documents of the Committee for the Investigation and Prosecution of Major War Criminals; the judgment. All 9,920 collection items are searchable and viewable in digital form."

Direct descendants of the Nuremberg court include the International Criminal Tribunal for the former Yugoslavia, the International Criminal Tribunal for Rwanda, and the the International Criminal Court in The Hague.
