Excursion: Nuremberg
Impressive, exciting, colourful, mighty and tragic: Nuremberg is a reflection of German history since the Middle Ages.
One of Europe's most important historical cities, the once imperial capital flourished under Frederick II and Charles IV of the Holy Roman Empire, attracting artisans, merchants, the nobility, and Templar knights.
The "most German of all German cities" was also the cultural centre of the Renaissance in the HRE.
Nuremberg also hosts arguably the most popular Christmas market in all of Germany.
Join us to find out why millions of tourists visit Nuremberg every year.
