Town full of history
Documented for the first time on July 16, 1050 Nuremberg has got a past of nearly 1000 years. Numerous sights, like the castle of the emperor, the Albrecht-Dürer house, the Beautifull Well testify it. Also the nearer past has left its traces. The Reichsparteitags area and the court room 600 remind of the Nuremberg tribunals in the courthouse in Nuremberg and the horrors of the Nazi regime.
Our recommendation:
The Nuremberg castle in which there resided occasionally all emperors of the Holy Roman Empire between 1050 and 1571 belongs to the most important “Kaiserpfalzen” of the Middle Ages. The castle, Nuremberg’s landmark is situated on a small hill above the northern old town and offers a beautiful view of the town.
