Fantastic tour with good tips for further walking and the best places to eat. Our guide is a fountain of knowledge and will give you great insights into the history of Nuremberg.
The second largest city in Bavaria offers the perfect combination of the cosmopolitan life of a large city and the tranquility of its medieval streets, where getting lost in time is one of the most interesting pleasures. For this reason, walking through the almost thousand years of history old town and going up the mighty Kaiserburg, the Imperial Castle, is one of the best programs out there to learn about this wonderful city and its history.
Museums and hot spots, shopping streets, and its events in all of Europe are unmatched, including the most famous landmark of the city, its hallmark: the Christkindlesmarkt, the most important Christmas market in all Germany. All of this makes Nuremberg a vibrant city. Most recently in its history, the National Socialist regime, through its 12 years in power, left its mark with the enactment of the September 1935 racial laws. Also, the famous trials carried out soon after WWII made Nuremberg the epicenter and bedrock of international jurisprudence.
