		Reinhard Heydrich, who was SS chief Heinrich Himmler's head deputy, held the meeting for the purpose of discussing the "final solution to the Jewish question in Europe" with key non-SS government leaders, including the secretaries of the Foreign Ministry and Justice, whose cooperation was needed.
		The Wannsee Conference, as it became known to history, did not mark the beginning of the "Final Solution." The mobile killing squads were already slaughtering Jews in the occupied Soviet Union.
		Rather, the Wannsee Conference was the place where the "final solution" was formally revealed to non-Nazi leaders who would help arrange for Jews to be transported from all over German-occupied Europe to SS-operated "extermination" camps in Poland.

		The Wannsee Conference was the discussion by a group of Nazi officials about the "Final Solution of the Jewish Question" (Endlösung der Judenfrage).
		It took place on January 20, 1942 in the Wannsee Villa overlooking the Wannsee lake in southwestern Berlin and would lead to the Holocaust.
		The meeting is noted as the first discussion of the 'Final Solution' and also because the records and minutes of the meeting were found intact by the Allies at the end of World War II and used during the Nuremberg Trials.

		The conference to be held at Wannsee was initially scheduled for December 9th, however, the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor and the German reactionary declaration of war provoked a delay.
		Early in January of 1942, the Wannsee Conference convened to formally discuss the treatment of Jews during the war and to debate the "Final Solution of the Jewish Question".
		Wannsee was efficient because it allowed the SS officials to finalize more of their plans emigration of Jews.

	Arutz Sheva - Israel National News
		The Wannsee Conference of 1942 grappled with the same question, or rather the Jewish Question, and those of us who have studied the minutes of that protocol marvel at the efficient, businesslike atmosphere that prevailed from one detail to the next, for really, it was all about details.
		But at Wannsee it was one headache after another and we can only imagine how frustrating it must have been to get all the schedules down to the minute, because when you are shipping people from here to there, everything must run smoothly.
		Moreover, the Wannsee ministers were startled to find they were not alone in their designs.

	Wannsee and The Final Solution
		Taken by Adolf Eichmann, the minutes of this conference are one of the most important documents recorded on the planning and organization of the murder of European Jewry by the Nazi regime.
		The meeting was closed with the request of the Chief of the Security Police and the SD to the participants that they afford him appropriate support during the carrying out of the tasks involved in the solution.
		This English text of the original German-language Wannsee protocol is based on the official U.S. government translation prepared for evidence in trials at Nuremberg, as reproduced in John Mendelsohn, ed., The Holocaust: Selected Documents in Eighteen Volumes.

	The Wannsee Conference Protocol: Anatomy of a Fabrication
		While it is claimed that the copy of the Wannsee minutes held by the Foreign Office is the original, this cannot in fact be the case, since it is identified as the 16th copy of a total of 30.
		The Wannsee Conference Protocol is a treasure-trove of stylistic howlers which indicate that the authors of this paper were strongly influenced by the Anglo-Saxon i.e.
		The constant repetition of the allegation that the Wannsee Conference represents the act of planning the genocide of the Jews, as the media have injected it into the conscious and (what is worse) the subconscious minds of mankind for many years now, has resulted in this allegation being considered to be gospel truth today.

	The Wannsee Protocol (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04)
		Nowhere in the Wannsee conference, or the minutes of that meeting, was a plan for the mass murder of all Jews discussed.
		The real purpose of the Wannsee conference is best gained by a simple reading of the minutes of that meeting (all quotes are from the actual Wannsee Minutes, a full copy of which can be found here).
		The Wannsee conference also made allowance for specific exceptions to Jewish evacuation, such as Jewish German World War One veterans; ALL Jews over the age of 65; and ALL Jews working in industries vital to the German war effort, to be released from the threat of evacuation and be allowed to stay in Germany.

	Colin Firth Career Timeline: Conspiracy - Meeting at Wannsee
		It recreates the infamous meeting at Wannsee, and is based almost exclusively on the transcript itself, dramatised in real-time: the film lasts for 90 minutes, which is approximately the same duration as the meeting on which it is based.
		As Firth points out, the Germans at Wannsee "weren't doing it in the spirit of passion, but because they felt it was necessary and that their lives would not be better until they got rid of an entire race of people.
		In 1942, he participated in the Wannsee conference, at which he warmly endorsed the plans for the "final solution" the compulsory sterilization of all "non-Aryans" and the dissolution of mixed marriages.

	::The Wannsee Conference::
		The Wannsee Conference held on January 20th, 1942, is seen as the meeting where the so-called 'Final Solution' was decided on.
		At Wannsee, decisions were taken that led directly to the Holocaust - the setting up of death camps to eradicate Europe's Jews, gypsies etc.
		Though the meeting at Wannsee was chaired by Heydrich, it was Eichmann who provided those summoned to the meeting with the figures about the number of Jews in Europe - both occupied by the Nazis and free of Nazi control at that time.

	THHP Question: The Wannsee Conference.
		The Wannsee Conference was, I recall, originally scheduled for December 1941, and I have read that it was postponed 'til 1/42 because of Pearl Harbor/entry of U.S into the war.
		The invitees to Wannsee were second-level bureaucrats and it is hard to believe that the declaration of war would have prevented those people from attending a conference on a question as fundamental as the Jewish question.

		The Wannsee ranks as one of the great recreation areas of the Berliners-- with the largest lido in Berlin and along its shores a range of other beaches, with sailing and rowing clubs, etc., cafes and restaurants, with terraces overlooking the Grosser Wannsee and with a variety of attractive footpaths and walks.
		From the southern end (with the Wannsee bridge, which carries the Königstrasse from Berlin to Potsdam) a string of small lakes connected with one another runs southwest in a long trough also dating from the Ice Age - the Kleiner Wannsee, the Pohlesee, the Stölpchensee (bathing beach), the Prinz- Friedrich-Leopold-Kanal, the Griebnitzsee.

	Axis History Forum :: View topic - Wannsee Conference
		The agenda of the Wannsee Conference, which never changed, was to inform senior representatives of the main German ministries that Heydrich had been given supreme authority over all policy relating to Jews, and to obtain their assent to that authority, which would involve their abandoning their own independent initiatives in that field.
		I was referring to the common misperception that the postponement of the Wannsee Conference from 9 December 1941 to 20 January 1942 was due to the attack on Pearl Harbour on 7 December.
		The subsequent Wannsee Conference was simply a vehicle for disseminating that written authority to the rival agencies and obtaining their submission; it had no other purpose.

		Wannsee is a lake, actually two lakes—Berlin is, among other things, a city of lakes and forests—and the villa has terraces looking over the shore; Wannsee is one of the longest inland beaches in Europe.
		A party at a house in Wannsee, one designed by a great Bauhaus architect, also diluted the power of the name; it was amazing to be in a house designed by such a genius, rather than horrific to be in terrible Wannsee.
		Wannsee is no longer such a place for me. On balance, I think it is better to drain names of their power, as long as we do not cease to attend to the things that were once all we attached to them.

		After experimentation, the use of Zyklon B on unsuspecting victim was adopted by the Nazis as the means of choice, and Auschwitz was selected as the main factory of death (more accurately, one should refer to the "Auschwitz-Birkenau complex").

		Director Heinz Schirk and writer Paul Mommertz use actual notes from the Wannsee Conference, along with letters written by Hermann Goering and Adolf Eichmann, and testimony by Eichmann at his 1961 trial in Israel, to re-create the shocking events of the fateful 85-minute meeting.
		The above is taken from "The Wannsee Conference," the 1984 German film concerning this ghastly meeting.
		Another film by the title of "Conspiracy" (made far more recently) mirrors this film, but pales in comparison; for the latter film is an English film starring Kenneth Branagh, who is not particularly believable as a German officer.
