Itinerary
Hauptmarkt
The tour begins at the Hauptmarkt, a place full of history, colors and aromas from the fruit, vegetable and flower stalls.
Frauenkirche
At 12 noon the bells of the Frauenkirche ring and the "Männleinlaufen" come into play, 16th-century automata that tell us the imperial history of Nuremberg. The Männleinlaufen gives us an insight into the importance of Nuremberg for the Nazi Party conventions. A fascinating story not to be missed.
Fleischbrucke
The Fleischbrücke is the only bridge that remained standing despite the bombing of the city during World War II.
St. Lorenz
Completed in 1477, the Church of St. Lawrence has a long tradition in the southern district of Nuremberg. Next to the church, we find a monument that speaks to the victims of National Socialism. A place of reflection and understanding of 20th-century history.
Heilig-Geist-Spital
The Holy Spirit Hospital was once the largest hospital building in the Holy Roman Empire. A place steeped in history that speaks to Nuremberg's economic and political power.
Der Schoene Brunnen
The Beautiful Fountain is a summary of the worldview of an ordinary citizen in the medieval Gothic period. Despite the passing of time, the traditions remain, and anyone who touches the ring achieves a certain degree of good fortune.
Nurnberger Rathaus
The Old Town Hall in Nuremberg demonstrates the power of the city's bourgeoisie.
St. Sebaldus Church
St. Sebald's Church is the most important church in Nuremberg. A Protestant church worth visiting for its history and religious objects.
Kaiserburg Nurnberg
Nuremberg Castle is the city's hallmark. From every angle, you can appreciate this marvelous medieval complex, which showcases the power of the Holy Roman Empire and which National Socialism adopted as the Secret Capital of the Third Reich. Here we will also discuss the importance of the Nuremberg Trials as a way to overcome the madness of war through justice and reason.
Albrecht-durer-haus
Germany's greatest artist, Albrecht Dürer, was born and lived in Nuremberg. His story and work are scattered throughout museums, but his roots and sources of inspiration lie in this city.
Tiergartnertorturm
Tiergärtnertor Square is one of the city's most beautiful squares, frequented by locals and a typical meeting place. The area is full of bars and restaurants inviting us to relax after a fascinating tour of Nuremberg.

Fantastic Nurenberg Tour!
Could have used a little more clarity on exactly where to meet. Otherwise tour was fantastic and better than we could have hoped for considering the cost. Vittorio was funny and enthusiastic and made the tour very enjoyable. We would totally recommend!

Best way to experience Nuremberg
Experienced Tour guide Viktor took us thorough all the crucial landmarks of the city with ease and his historical knowledge helps big time in the walking tour. Will recommend him and the tour!

Wonderful experience!
Our tour with Federico was, without a doubt, one of the best we have ever done. He is an extraordinarily intelligent guide, very well-informed and with a great ability to convey history in an interesting and entertaining way. He not only explained the historical and architectural aspects of Nuremberg, but also shared very valuable information about the local gastronomy, culture, and numerous recommendations that made the city come to life. In addition to his extensive knowledge, we want to highlight his enormous kindness and human quality. We traveled with a family member who uses a wheelchair and Federico was attentive to us throughout the entire tour, helping us whenever it was necessary and adapting the tour with an incredibly generous and natural attitude. That level of attention made a big difference for our group. He was absolutely punctual, answered all questions with patience and enthusiasm, and managed to keep the group's interest throughout the entire tour. We recommend Federico without any reservation. If you have the opportunity to take a tour with him, do not hesitate. It will be one of the best memories of your visit to Nuremberg!
