what was the purpose of the wannsee conference
The Wannsee Conference is one of the most notorious events of World War II. At the conference an estimate of the number of Jews in Europe was circulated: 11 million in total. The participant at the Wannsee Conference were all very important men within the Nazi regime, but none of them was high-ranking enough to possess the authority to decide the Final Solution to the Jewish question. 2  Systematic extermination of the Jews had begun long before the Wannsee Conference took place.
