Exploring the Medieval Old Town (Altstadt)

Begin your tour in the beautifully preserved Altstadt, encircled by ancient stone walls and towers. Stroll through the Hauptmarkt, Nuremberg’s central square, home to the striking Schöner Brunnen (Beautiful Fountain) and the Church of Our Lady (Frauenkirche). Your guide will lead you through cobbled streets lined with timber-framed houses to the Albrecht Dürer House, where Germany’s most famous Renaissance artist lived and worked. Nearby, climb the hill to the imposing Imperial Castle (Kaiserburg), which once hosted Holy Roman Emperors and offers sweeping views of the city.

World War II and the Nuremberg Trials

Explore Nuremberg’s crucial role in 20th-century history with a visit to the Nazi Party Rally Grounds, where vast architectural remnants tell the story of Nazi propaganda. Your guide will provide context on how these spaces were used—and later repurposed—in postwar Germany. Visit the Memorium Nuremberg Trials at the Palace of Justice, where the infamous post-WWII trials took place. Stand in Courtroom 600, where high-ranking Nazis were held accountable, and understand the enduring impact of these landmark legal proceedings.

Art, Culture, and Local Traditions

Nuremberg has a deep artistic soul. Visit the Germanisches Nationalmuseum, one of the largest museums of cultural history in the German-speaking world, featuring everything from medieval armor to Renaissance sculpture. Your guide can also show you the Toy Museum, a nod to Nuremberg’s legacy as a center of toy-making, or lead you through the city’s vibrant arts scene, from artisan workshops to modern galleries.

A Taste of Franconia

Indulge in Nuremberg’s beloved culinary traditions. Try Nürnberger Rostbratwurst, small grilled sausages with a distinctive flavor, often served three at a time on a roll. Taste the city’s famous Lebkuchen (gingerbread), especially delightful during the Christkindlesmarkt, one of Germany’s oldest and most enchanting Christmas markets. Your guide can arrange a visit to a traditional beer hall to sample Franconian brews, or a local winery to experience the regional Silvaner and Müller-Thurgau wines.

Scenic Walks and Hidden Gems

Wander along the Pegnitz River, crossing historic bridges like Henkersteg (Hangman's Bridge), or relax in Tiergärtnertorplatz, a lively square beneath the castle. Discover quiet courtyards, artisan shops, and hidden fountains that reveal Nuremberg’s blend of charm and character. For those interested in local craftsmanship, your tour can include a visit to a traditional Lebkuchen bakery, a coppersmith workshop, or a local market showcasing regional products.
