Nuremberg Laws (1935) Gov't / Court Document

A pair of laws endorsed by the Nazi Party at its annual rallies in Nuremberg, Germany in 1933 and 1935. The Nuremberg Laws placed severe restrictions on German Jews in an attempt to identify and separate them from what the Nazis saw as the racially pure Aryan German race.

These laws were just the first of increasingly harsh measures taken to force the Jews out of Germany, which ultimately ended in the Nazi program to exterminate the Jewish race known as the Holocaust during World War II.

The Nuremberg Laws were also the first steps toward weeding out from German society any people the Nazis found undesirable, particularly those suffering from physical or mental disabilities.
