We have to admit, we were particularly looking forward to our time in Nuremberg. It was apparent by the many positive reviews we\u2019ve heard about Nuremberg, that this is one of those must-visit destinations. In fact, we heard so much about Nuremberg<\/strong> that we were a little nervous – perhaps we\u2019d set our hopes and expectations too high? <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Fortunately, the nerves vanished quickly and the relief set in as we realised that Nuremberg is everything people say it is\u2026 if not better than anticipated. For us, this student city<\/strong> has just the right amount of big city feel<\/strong> without over doing it. As a bonus, Nuremberg is scattered with numerous photogenic sights and corners.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In this travel guide, we reveal our personally trialled tips for a perfect city vacation<\/strong> to Nuremberg: From the best view (which is a real insider tip!) to baking Traditional German Gingerbread – Lebkuchen! Because you simply can\u2019t leave Nuremberg without tasting their regional specialty, can you?<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

<\/b>1. Nuremberg: Franconia’s \u201cMetropolis”<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Nuremberg is by far the largest city in Franconia<\/strong>. This only really hit us when we saw the Metro Station in Nuremberg. About half a million people live here but that sounds like a lot more than it actually feels. In the centre, you can easily reach the main attractions by foot.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Speaking of sights, there is a great deal here in Nuremberg – above all, is the famous medieval Kaiserburg<\/strong>. However, Nuremberg is not just the classic highlights, there is also an abundant of really great caf\u00e9s and museums, which are definitely very worthwhile visiting too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A sad historical note: During World War II Nuremberg was almost completely plummeted to the ground, with over 90 percent of the city being destroyed. Therefore, the cityscape of Nuremberg is, unfortunately not so much the traditional half-timbered buildings as you might imagine, but the up-side is that many of the buildings were rebuilt in the old traditional style.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Travel Season for Nuremberg<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

We visited Nuremberg in the summer<\/strong> and would definitely choose to visit again during the warmer months. The city is really alive at this time of year, you can sit outside almost everywhere and there are also some great events (especially the Bardentreffen – which we’ll tell you about later). However, a visit around the Christmas season<\/strong> is just as popular, because of the Christmas Markets (called “Christkindlesmarkt” here), which Nuremberg is famous for, far beyond the country’s borders.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2. Nuremberg Travel Guide: Top Sights in Nuremberg<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

There are more attractions in Nuremberg than you can discover during your visit. You should definitely see the Kaiserburg (the landmark of the city), the Weinstadel as well as Henkersteg, the Wei\u00dfgerbergasse and – last but not least – the view from the Sebalduskirche.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Kaiserburg<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

A walk to Kaiserburg is definitely part of a Nuremberg stay. The landmark of the city<\/strong> is located on a hill just above the old town and can be reached in about 15 minutes. From the top you have a beautiful view of Nuremberg.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You can of course visit the premises of the castle (including the Knight’s Hall and the double chapel). We just visited the deep well and the Sinnwellturm. From the Sinnwellturm you have a fantastic view, which we certainly couldn\u2019t miss. We will share some more information with you later in this travel guide. Another tip: The beautiful castle garden is also worth having a look.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

All information about visiting<\/strong> the Kaiserburg (including opening times and admission fees) can be found on the website of the Bavarian Palace Department: Kaiserburg N\u00fcrnberg<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Weinstadel and Henkersteg<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The postcard motif in Nuremberg is none other than the building ensemble upon the Maxbr\u00fccke Bridge. From there you have the best view of Weinstadel and Henkersteg. The beautifully renovated medieval half-timbered building of the Weinstadel, is particularly striking. A little tip for photography fans: Just by the bridge, you can capture almost a mirror reflection in the river on calm days!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Weinstadel<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Wei\u00dfgerbergasse<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The most famous and photographed alley in all of Nuremberg<\/strong> is the Wei\u00dfgerbergasse, and for good reason: here you will find the largest existing building ensemble of the old traditional half-timbered houses in Nuremberg. Many think that the whole of Nuremberg is made up of these old traditional timbered houses, but this is unfortunately not the case, as a large part of the buildings fell victim to the Second World War. Thus, making it rather special to walk through the Wei\u00dfgerbergasse.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Our tip:<\/strong> Here, you will find two worthwhile stopovers – a small ice cream factory and the coffee roaster \u2018Bergbrand\u2019. We will share more information about these two locations further down below. <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Main Market and Sch\u00f6ner Brunnen (Fountain)<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The beautiful Sch\u00f6ner Brunnen (“beautifuk fountain”) located on the Nuremberg Main Market, certainly lives up to its name. The architecture is less reminiscent of a classic fountain, but rather that of a gothic, opulent church spire.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Do not be surprised if you come by and see someone who looks as if they have been glued to the grates of the Fountain: he or she is most likely just turning the golden ring<\/strong>. Yes, that’s right. Apparently it is supposed to bring luck to the person who turns the ring three times (but of course, you have to wish for something).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And now things start to get a bit funny: there is, in fact, a second (black) ring, which the locals swear by. According to them, the golden ring is intended for tourists. Whether gold or black: don\u2019t forget to turn the ring when you\u2019re passing by!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Heilig-Geist-Spital<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

A popular photo opportunity<\/strong> in Nuremberg’s Old Town is the Heilig-Geist-Spital. This medieval-looking building is now used as a retirement home and you can take some great pictures of the Heilig-Geist-Spital from the Museumsbr\u00fccke bridge. A little tip: If you happen to be in the area, it\u2019s  <\/span>not far to the popular Caf\u00e9 Bar Katz. Further information can be found in the culinary chapter of this travel guide.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tierg\u00e4rtnertor<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Evening after evening during the warmer months, both young and old gather together on the square in front of the Tierg\u00e4rtnertor. What you see in the photo is just the beginning, the later the evening, the fuller it gets. You simply pick up a beer from the legendary Caf\u00e9 Wanderer<\/b> and make yourself comfortable on the ground.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The place is also worth a stop during the day, because here you will find two beautiful buildings: The Albrecht-D\u00fcrer-Haus<\/strong> – the house where Albrecht D\u00fcrer lived and worked, and the Pilatushaus. Not to forget the Tierg\u00e4rtnertor itself, which is a gate of the former city wall.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Tierg\u00e4rtnertor\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Gostenhof (GoHo)<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

What Kreuzberg is in Berlin is Gostenhof in Nuremberg. Gostenhof is affectionately known by locals as GoHo – as a counterpart to New York’s SoHo district – and is the hipster, trendy, art district of Nuremberg<\/strong>. What that means: The graffiti density is higher than anywhere else and there are so many great cafes and shops that we simply could not see everything in one day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We visited two caf\u00e9s here: one was the legendary Caf\u00e9 Mainheim<\/b> and the other was the coffee roasting house Kaffeer\u00f6sterei Machh\u00f6rndl<\/b>. We’ll tell you about both of them later in this blog post. (Spoiler: Both are highly recommended!)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Neues Museum (New Museum)<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The fact that we landed in the Neues Museum was more or less due to a coincidence. From our hotel (more about that later) it was only a few steps to the entrance of the Neues Museum. However, the Neues Museum is definitely recommended – provided you are a fan of modern art<\/strong>. We were not only impressed by the exhibitions and the museum shop, but also by the photogenic spiral staircase.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

3. The Most Beautiful Views of Nuremberg<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

With its characteristic rooftop landscape, Nuremberg from the top is quite a highlight. The most famous lookout point over the city is that of the Kaiserburg, but we\u2019ll share with you some other view points, which are just as worthwhile.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

From the Church Tower of Sebalduskirche<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

One of our highlights in Nuremberg was the tower climb<\/strong> of the Sebalduskirche. But because we were in town during the Bardentreffen event, there was even a guided tour during our favourite time of day – at sunset! When our tower guide finally unlocked the door to the viewing platform, our jaws dropped with excitement. We almost missed the actual sun setting, but luckily we got a short beam through the clouds again. The outdoor area is very, very narrow and the view down below is very deep, but so breathtaking!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Address:<\/em> Winklerstra\u00dfe 26, 90403 Nuremberg
Guided tours:<\/em> There are regular tours for the tower. It is best to ask for up-to-date information either on the website<\/a> or directly on site.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

From the Adlerparkhaus<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Now we have one of those insider view point tips, which we found out through a local. From the last floor of the Adlerparkhauses (Parking Houses) you have a great view of the old town,<\/strong> the Sebalduskirche and the Kaiserburg. Best to come at sunset, because that\u2019s when the light is most beautiful. Although we spent only three days in Nuremberg, we were up here two out of three evenings. That really says it all, doesn\u2019t it?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Warning: Access to the parking garage is only allowed with a valid parking ticket. Entrance tickets are normally checked.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Adlerparkhaus<\/a><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

From the Sinwellturm<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The most famous view of the city is from the Sinwellturm of the well-known Kaiserburg. The former defence tower<\/strong> dates back to the 13th Century and remained completely unscathed during World War II, despite its very exposed location. Even though the view from the tower is clouded by bars, the 360-degree view is nevertheless unique. Further information can be found on the Website<\/a> of the Bavarian Palace Department.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Location:<\/em> Inside the Kaiserburg
Admission:<\/em> 4 Euro (combined ticket Tierfer Brunnen & Sinwellturm).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

4. Event Tip: Nuremberg Bardentreffen<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

We were lucky enough to be guests in the city during the Nuremberg Bardentreffen event. During this open-air music festival<\/strong>, all of Nuremberg comes alive: bands come together and perform for three days across several stages. From young to long-established, well-known to upcoming emerging, both national and international bands. This photo below shows only the largest stage on the Main Market, so you can guess just how big the festival really is.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But that’s not all: in fact, the whole city turns into an open-air concert. At every corner of the street, amateur musicians gather and play their songs during the Bardtreffen. The exuberant moods, which saturate  <\/span>the streets are definitely something special. We even heard from two local Nuremberg women, who told us that the Bardentreffen is their favourite event of the entire year. That\u2019s really saying something! <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

On the official website you will find all other information including dates for next year: Nuremberg Bardentreffen<\/a>. Who knows, maybe it will overlap with your visit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

5. Regional Specialties in Nuremberg<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Nuremberg Baking: Lebkuchen (German Gingerbread)<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Call us crazy, but we actually dared to bake gingerbread<\/strong> (Lebkuchen in German) while the outside temperature was a sweltering 33 degrees Celsius. But we have two main reasons for this: Firstly, the Wicklein Store (where we did the baking) was pleasantly air-conditioned. Secondly, these things are just so incredibly delicious, there is no way it could ever be too hot to lose that desire.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Be that as it may, Nuremberg is, as everyone knows, the Lebkuchen capital<\/strong>. There is a lot of debate about where the best Lebkuchen actually is. We chose Wicklein, the oldest Lebkuchen bakery in Nuremberg. Not only did we stock up on for the next Advent season, we also tried baking (and decorating) it ourselves.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Address:<\/em> Hauptmarkt 7, 90403 Nuremberg
Gingerbread workshop:<\/em> You can find all the information on the website<\/a> of N\u00fcrnberg Tourismus. There you can also book a course directly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Nuremberg Bratwurst (German Sausage)<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Rarely, will you see a meat eater leave Nuremberg without having tried the famous Nuremberg Rostbratwurst<\/strong> (grilled sausages). Compared to their Franconian competitors, the Nuremberg sausages are very small, but particularly spicy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You can order the Nuremberg Bratwurst not only in the restaurants, but also by a quick takeaway stand. This specialty is called in German \u201cDrei im Weggla\u201d – translated means \u201cThree in the Weggla” – and basically is three N\u00fcrnberger Rostbratw\u00fcrste in a bread roll. Typically, neither mustard nor ketchup is eaten – because that would drown the taste of the sausages too much. In the old town you get “Drei im Weggla” for example in the well-known Bratwursth\u00e4usle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Nuremberg Rotbier (Red Beer of Nuremberg)<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Rotbier or Red Beer has been brewed in Nuremberg since the Middle Ages in accordance with the purity law. For the production, the malt is specially roasted and gives the beer thereby its characteristic taste. Probably the most famous place to taste red beer is the Hausbrauerei Altstadthof<\/b> Brewery near Tierg\u00e4rtnertor. The beer is usually sold there in 1 Litre bottles. Cool thing: you can even borrow glasses from the Hausbrauerei Altstadthof Brewery and then make yourselves comfortable at the Tierg\u00e4rtnertor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

6. Favourite Restaurants and Cafes in Nuremberg<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Kaffeer\u00f6sterei Bergbrand – Coffee Roasters<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The Kaffeer\u00f6sterei Bergbrand is the perfect stopover if you need a quick caffeine boost after visiting the half-timbered buildings in the Wei\u00dfgerbergasse. We ordered two espresso macchiato, which were really good. We made ourselves comfortable outside the caf\u00e9 amongst the shade of the trees, but the caf\u00e9 is also very well furnished on the inside.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Die Kleine Eismanufaktur – The Small Ice-Cream Factory<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Our expectations were very high due to numerous recommendations on Instagram and excellent reviews on the internet. And what can we say? We were not one bit disappointed! The ice cream parlour stands out in the famous Wei\u00dfgerbergasse with its small but fine selection of ice cream. Also on offer are a few daily vegan varieties. Conclusion: very, highly recommended!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Caf\u00e9 Bar Katz<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Caf\u00e9 Bar Katz is a great place to enjoy a coffee outdoors in summer. There is an open front section near the Heilig-Geist-Spital, where you can sit very comfortably. The interior is vintage-inspired. Especially in the evening, the caf\u00e9 is a popular meeting place, more so for their big gin selection than the coffee.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you can catch the whiff of freshly roasted coffee when entering, then a caf\u00e9 has already won us over. The Machh\u00f6rndl is a roastery, shop and caf\u00e9 – all in one. Here you can buy coffee for your home or enjoy it on the spot. Big plus: When you order, you can choose between different varieties. Unfortunately, this luxury is an occurrence far too rare in our opinion. Thus, highly recommended and thumbs up from us!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

No other restaurant was recommended to us as often as Zeit & Raum in preparation to our Nuremberg visit. The menu offers mainly salads and Flammkuchen (which is like a delicious crispy thin crusted, white sauce, cheesy tart-pizza hybrid). They also have an extensive breakfast menu.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The interior decor is a cool mix of Oriental and Southeast Asian furniture – we really liked the cozy atmosphere. If you want a place out on the open terrace during the summer, then a reservation cannot go amiss. Incidentally, students receive a 20% discount on the total invoice (with ID).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Bratwurstgl\u00f6cklein is an institution in Nuremberg, where tourists and locals alike come here to order 6, 8, 10 or 12 original Nuremberg sausages – best case scenario with sauerkraut on the side. The sausages are served on a tin bell-shaped plate. We found the ambience of the restaurant in the Handwerkerhof especially pretty.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

7. Our Hotel Tip in Nuremberg<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The family-run<\/strong> Hotel Victoria <\/a>was our home in Nuremberg for three nights. The location is ideal for exploring the city as it is located in the old town right next to the Handwerkerhof. On foot it is a good 10 minutes to the main market.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Our very cozy room<\/strong> was on the first floor overlooking the Handwerkerhof. Since we were guests both during a weekend and<\/i> during the Bardentreffen event, it goes without saying that the nights were a bit louder than usual. The beds were very comfortable, however.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The breakfast<\/strong> was very good. For us muesli fans, we were delighted to have such a large selection of toppings. In addition, the friendly staff deserves special praise. It really felt more than just a welcome! Oh yes and here\u2019s something not so self-evident: you can take free chilled drinks from the fridge in the lobby at any time during the day or night!<\/p>\n\n\n
