Nuremberg Travel Guides

31 articles

Nuremberg is the medieval jewel of Franconia, a heritage-rich city wrapped in some of Europe's best-preserved fortifications. Climb to the Imperial Castle for sweeping views over a compact, walkable old town of cobbled lanes and half-timbered houses, anchored by Albrecht Dürer's House and the great Gothic churches, with deep imperial roots and a darker 20th-century history documented at the Documentation Center. The world-famous Christkindlesmarkt fills the central square each December, making Nuremberg a charming, atmospheric stop between Frankfurt and Munich. These guides cover the Imperial Castle, the medieval walls and old town, museums, and the best regional day trips.
