The Writers' Castle: Reporting History at Nuremberg (Chinese edition)

CICG, October 28, 2025

In 1945, at Faber-Castell Castle in Nuremberg, Germany, the first international trial of war crimes in human history took place. The International Military Tribunal, formed by the U.S., the U.K., France, and the Soviet Union, brought the Nazi political and military leadership to justice. At the same time, 250 journalists and 11 photographers and cameramen from around the world gathered in the confiscated castle that had been converted into a press camp.

This book tells the stories of those reporters and writers, recounting the harsh conditions they faced, revealing how people confront violence and trauma, and exploring how participation in the trials shaped the course of their later lives.

The book is translated from German to Chinese and published by New Star Press.
