Hello and hello in Nuremberg. As a native of Nuremberg, I would be happy to present my hometown to you. The focus will be on Nuremberg's "Golden Age" of the late Middle Ages with its craftsmen, traders and patricians. We visit, among other things, the main market, Kaiserburg and Tiergärtnertorplatz as well as Nuremberg's most beautiful half-timbered street. Of course, we also learn about Germany's greatest artist, Albrecht Dürer, and other personalities who shaped Franconia's capital. Unfortunately, the direct path from Nuremberg's size also leads to its romantic transfiguration and to the misuse of the city's backdrop for the National Socialist "Reich Party Rallies" and ultimately to complete destruction in the Second World War. But this shouldn't be the end. The reconstruction of Nuremberg gave the city back its identity. Of course, you will receive all the information you need about your stay, including tips on locations and other sights.
