Overview

Explore Nuremberg’s medieval walled Old Town on a 2-hour walking tour in English. Steeped in antiquity, the city has been at the forefront of pivotal eras throughout Germany’s history. With a past that harks back to the Holy Roman Empire, Nuremberg was also the cradle of the German Renaissance and an important location of the Third Reich (Nazi Germany). Learn the history and see a collection of the city’s must-visit sites, like St Lawrence Church, St Sebald Church, Albrecht Dürer Platz, the Imperial Castle courtyards and Nuremberg Hauptmarkt (marketplace). You'll also get suggestions on what to do in the city and the best places to get the famous Nuremberg sausages and amber lager (Rotbier)!
