    In the years 1935 to 1937, the Zeppelin meadow was redesigned according to a design by Albert Speer (1934) into a parade ground with grandstands, with the main Zeppelin grandstand erected on the northeast side of the field being the dominant backdrop. It is the only completed building on the Nazi Party Rally Grounds.

    The entire system measured 362×378 meters, the actual zeppelin field measured 290×312 meters. The inner surface measures 312×285 meters and is therefore larger than 12 soccer fields.

    Overall, the area offered space for up to 320,000 people, 70,000 of them as spectators in the stands. They were divided by 34 towers, on which stood flagpoles and anti-aircraft searchlights. The impressive "light dome" was created with more than 150 very powerful searchlights, which shone vertically into the sky around the Zeppelin field.
