On the Western Front of World War II, American troops stormed into Nuremberg in central Germany on April 16th 1945. The battlefield of Nuremberg, which ended on April 20th, was strewn with the bodies of German soldiers who had been killed.

      On the Western Front of World War II, the American army stormed into Nuremberg, the birthplace of Nazi Germany, in central Germany, on April 16th 1945. In the city of Nuremberg, a hand-to-hand battle broke out between the American and German armies. The bodies of the German soldiers who had been killed lay piled up on the battlefield of Nuremberg, which ended on April 20th.

     On April 20th, the American army surrounded the old town. In response to the fierce resistance of the German army, the American army deployed heavy artillery and fighter planes. The mayor, Willy Liebel, committed suicide in a bunker. German soldiers were ordered to continue fighting. The American army gave the German army four opportunities to surrender peacefully. The German army realized that they could no longer hold the city, and all German soldiers in the area were ordered to surrender. On the night of April 20th, coincidentally Hitler's 56th birthday, the American flag was raised and the battle officially ended.

    The Battle of Nuremberg was a fierce urban battle that lasted for five days from April 16th to April 20th, 1945 at the end of World War II. At the end of the war, the Allied forces had the advantage in terms of manpower, equipment and vehicles, and they advanced throughout Germany. They cleared out the buildings in the old town and killed the German soldiers who had hidden in the basements and air raid shelters. The Nazi German army had a deluded belief that they would ultimately triumph over the American army. April 20th marked the climax of the battle in the city, which was notorious for its role in the Nazi party. Nuremberg was the birthplace of the Nazi regime, and the German army's surrender dealt a blow to Nazi Germany.

      The Allies used Nuremberg as a symbol of Nazi Germany, and the Nuremberg Trials were held from November 20, 1945, when the 21 defendants appeared in court, until October 1, 1946. After the first international military tribunal, the United States held a further 12 trials in Nuremberg. In total, 199 defendants were tried, 161 were found guilty and 37 were sentenced to death.
