Norimberský soud, Norimberk

The fonds consists of stenographic records (250 000 pages) from each of 12 subsequent trials which were as copies submitted to all national delegations participating at the Nuremberg proceedings and investigation. The fonds also consists of several folders with various documents such as hearings of witnesses or given judgements etc.

The 12 subsequent trials were: the Doctors' Trial (against 23 medical doctors), the Milch Trial (against the Field Marshal Erhard Milch), the Judges' Trial (against 16 jurists and lawyers), the Pohl Trial (also known as Economics and Administrative Departments of the SS trial against Oswald Pohl and 17 other SS officers), the Flick Trial (against Friedrich Flick and 5 top directors of the Flick Company group), the IG Farben Trial (against 23 top directors of the IG Farben group), the Hostages Trial (known also as the Southeast case against generals leading the Balkans campaign), the RuSHA Trial (against Ulrich Greifelt and 3 other officers of SS organizations), the Einsatzgruppen Trial (against 24 officers of SS mobile death squads), the Krupp Trial (against 12 former directors of the Krupp group), the Ministries Trial (known as the Wilhelmstrasse process or Weizsӓcker process), the High Command Trial (against 14 generals of Wehrmacht).

Records are divided according to the subsequest trials and inside each folder, they are sorted according to the date and the hour of the sessions of the Court, and that makes the arrangement very unclear. During the processing in 1961, records were signed as follows: “Nor” as the sign of the fonds, Roman numerals (I.-XII., the number of the trial), number of pages of the record and then letters G or E (whether the documents were written in German or English language), for example: Nor-I./956-1525/G).

In 1962, the documents and files of the XI. trial were described in detail because it had closer relation to Czechoslovakia) so there is a detailed name index of this trial (of 80 boxes of total 626 boxes of the fonds).
