An eclectic place, known from the outside for its motorsport and gingerbread, Nuremberg is the German city that offers much more than meets the eye.

Indeed, it’s one of Germany’s most intriguing, historic cities, a place where old and new, medieval and modern co-exist in perfect harmony. The glorious Old Town sits in the shadow of a towering imperial castle, and there are plenty more imposing sights to discover here too. Stroll the streets and you’ll happen upon wonderful gothic churches, age-old patrician’s houses, and a wealth of hidden, romantic spot to make your own.
