The second largest Bavarian city, Nuremberg, is known mostly for its beautiful Old Town and as being the setting for momentous events in history such as the Nuremberg Rallies and Nuremberg Trials. Join one of the Free Walking Tours in Nuremberg to stroll around its marvelous architecture, some of which dates from medieval times, and understand with a passionate guide why this city set a new course for international jurisprudence. For those new to the city, we recommend the Essential Nuremberg City Tour, where you will learn that the city was unofficially the capital of the Holy Roman Empire, so relics from this time can be found around the city. History buffs shouldn’t miss the Free Third Reich Tour to find out about the darkest part of Nuremberg’s history. Finally, join the Free Tour Nuremberg by Night to enjoy the city after sunset with a local guide.

With Free Tours in Nuremberg, you’ll explore the old town and come across some of the main attractions, including the Central Station, the largest in north Bavaria, Frauentorturm, St Clara’s Church, Mauthalle, Frauenkirche, the City Hall, and more! Albrecht Dürer, arguably one of Germany's greatest painters, lived and worked in this town until his death in 1528. His former home is in incredible condition and you are able to visit it. A tour of Nuremberg is not complete without a trip to Nuremberg Castle. Back in the 13th century, this was the powerhouse of the Holy Roman Empire. For a deeper understanding of Nuremberg’s role during and after WWII, visit the Documentation Center and Nazi Party Rally Grounds, and the Nuremberg Trials memorial. Discover why Nuremberg was chosen by the Nazis for their annual mass propaganda campaign.

After a day of sightseeing with Nuremberg Free Walking Tours, stop at one of the cozy cafes in Tanner’s Lane. It’s a charming street lined with half-timbered houses and a number of quirky boutiques.
