    The question is should that be dative (dem) because it's a location, or should it accusative because it refers to a movement?

      Location is locative or prepositional case isn't it? Dative case refers to to whom something is given ie on the Reichstag, 'Dem Deutschen Volke'?

          Problem is I rote learnt my Latin to pass my exam so I can only remember simple sentences, some declension of some nouns and conjugation of some verbs.
