If you are a history buff, you've come to the right place! Nuremberg, the second largest city of Bavaria, is so much more than Third Reich history, Nazi Trials and WWII memorabilia: from the undeclared capital of the Holy Roman Empire and the preferred residence of most German kings, to a magnet for famous artists like Albrecht Dürer and to a powerhouse in Germany’s industrial revolution in the 19th century, Nuremberg had them all. Even Martin Luther wrote about the city: ”shines throughout Germany like a sun among the moon and stars.” Join our walking tour to understand exactly why and how Nuremberg got this well deserved fame.

    How many days do you need in Nuremberg?

    +

    Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

    Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

    +
