At the Nuremberg Trials 24 of the highest Nazi leaders were tried for their war crimes of genocide and many other war crimes. The trial took a year and there were 100 other Nazis tried for war crimes too. Of the 24 big time leaders they were all convicted and most were executed. Many of the 100 received prison sentences.

The Nuremburg Trials took place from November 1945 to October 1946.
The Nuremburg trials were a serious of criminal court cases organised by the United Nations in conjunction with the allied occupying powers (USA, UK, France and the USSR) in Germany at the end of World War 2. Many people associated with the former Nazi Regime in Germany faced trial there on war crimes charges.
Prominent Nazis were tried after World War 2, in the city of Nürnberg (Nuremberg). The Nazis did not exist in WW1. (Although Hitler served in the German army.)
There were different levels of war crimes and type of people who were charged with war crimes. The top leaders (24 of them) were all convicted of their war crimes. One, Goering, killed himself before the War Crime Tribunal could execute him. There were a hundred more people who were tried but not all of them were convicted. I did hear or see a figure of 80 percent were convicted but do not rely on that as being accurate since I could not find the exact figure to answer your question.

Nazi leaders were not brought to justice during the Holocaust. That is why there was able to be a Holocaust. The Nazi leaders who survived were brought to trial after the war and the holocaust was ended. This was done by trying them in an international court of law before a panel of judges from the major allied countries.
