Nazi Reich Minister Alfred Rosenberg's Long-Lost Diary Exposes New Details About Hitler Reign (VIDEO)

The U.S. government has recovered 400 pages from the diary of a confidante of Adolf Hitler, according to reports.

Alfred Rosenberg was a Nazi Reich minister who was convicted in the Nuremberg trials and hanged for his crimes in 1946. His long-lost diary will allegedly provide new insight into Nazi leaders and Hitler meetings.

The diary is reportedly a collection of Rosenberg's experiences from spring 1936 to winter 1944.

"Most entries are written in Rosenberg's looping cursive, some on paper torn from a ledger book and others on the back of official Nazi stationary," according to the New York Daily News.

"The documentation is of considerable importance for the study of the Nazi era, including the history of the Holocaust," said the analysts assessment, prepared by the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum in Washington. "A cursory content analysis indicates that the material sheds new light on a number of important issues relating to the Third Reich's policy. The diary will be an important source of information to historians that compliments, and in part contradicts, already known documentation."

According to reports, further details about the diary's contents have not been released. U.S. government said the museum's analysis remains preliminary.

"Rosenberg was an early and powerful Nazi ideologue, particularly on racial issues. He directed the Nazi party's foreign affairs department and edited the Nazi newspaper," according to the New York Daily News. "Several of his memos to Hitler were cited as evidence during the post-war Nuremberg trials."

The diary allegedly includes details about tensions within the German high-command and information about the looting of Jewish art throughout Europe.

Official analysts held a news conference to announce the findings in Delaware today. Representatives from the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement, the U.S. Department of Justice and the Holocaust museum were in attendance.
