Wannsee House, Germany



The Wannsee house is located on the outskirts of Berlin, Germany. This is where 15 men, most of whom were very well educated, came up the with "final solution" to the Jewish question. It was at this house that Nazi authority came up with the decision to exterminate all the Jews of Europe. Before the house was confiscated from them, it was owned by a wealthy Jewish family. How ironic that a house that was once owned by Jews would become so famous for being the house where the solution was formed. The meeting took place on 20 January 1942, and ended a couple hours later with a plan fully intact.
