The Burger King inside an Old Nazi Building

The city of Nuremberg was of great cultural significance in Nazi Germany, as demonstrated by the infamous rallies that took place there. The victorious Allied powers put substantial effort into cleansing the country of the symbols of Nazism, including the swastika and the eagle, in Nuremberg and elsewhere.

But it was impractical to blast apart every building associated with the Nazi Party and some remain intact to this day--even in Nuremberg. Atlas Obscura tells us that one of the buildings left over from the rally grounds built by Nazi Germany is now home to a Burger King. The eagle coat of arms has been removed, but its traces can be identified on the stone.
