Views from Nuremberg Castle
#urbanexplorer #nuremberg #germany
If you’re looking for stunning views of Bavaria, it can’t get much better than Nuremberg castle. After a short walk up a small hill, we found ourselves at the battlements of the castle which is one of the most well preserved medieval fortresses in Europe!
My favourite part was making our way up to the high walls to get an amazing view of the town.

Imperial Castle of Nuremberg
Very impressive and excellent castle visit to the Imperial Castle.
It is located at the top of a hill, overlooking the city of Nuremberg. The castle is very well maintained. There do not have any buses directly up so it might not be completely accessible for physically disabled people.
Due to destruction during WWII, most of the interiors are redone as a museum. The anvient weapons and armor displays are nice. Climbing up the tower was fun and offers great views.
Buy the combination tickets to visit the castle, tower and the well. It's definitely worth it.
A "must" if you are in Nuremberg.

Rock legend Sting tours, about Nuremberg, things you didn't know
Date: 2023/12/6
Venue: Arena Nürnberger Versicherung
The septuagenarian rock star Sting continues his tour, and this time he has arrived in Nuremberg, Germany. Nuremberg was one of the ruling centers directly governed by the emperors of the 'Holy Roman Empire of the German Nation', a city filled with art and history. Let's take a look at some of the must-visit spots!
1. Nuremberg Castle
The Kaiserburg is a very iconic medieval building in Nuremberg, also known as Nuremberg Castle. Nearly every emperor of the Roman Empire has stayed here. The castle's buildings are connected by passages, corridors, tunnels, and gardens.
2. Beautiful Fountain
On the octagonal stone basin in Hauptmarkt, stands a 19-meter-tall tower, its golden glow shimmering with the square.
3. Main Market Square
The Main Market Square is the heart of Nuremberg's old town. Here you can see traditional markets that continue to this day, and of course, it's a very lively place during Christmas. There are also many ancient buildings nearby, among which the famous one is the very old Gothic church in the Bavarian region—St. Mary's Church in Nuremberg.

Just back from soaking up the medieval vibes at the Imperial Castle of Nuremberg, and I'm still in awe of this historical masterpiece! 🏰✨ The entrance fee, a reasonable 7 euros, was like unlocking the gates to a journey through time.
Perched on a hill, the castle offers panoramic views of Nuremberg – a postcard moment in itself. The guided tour was like a storytelling session, with tales of emperors and knights echoing through the centuries-old walls. 🗣️👑 Each room felt like a chapter from history, and the deep well within the castle was a cool, albeit eerie, highlight. #TimeTravelThrills
The castle grounds, surrounded by charming medieval walls, are perfect for a leisurely stroll. I found myself captivated by the stunning architecture and the picturesque scenery. 🌳🚶♂️
Nuremberg's Old Town, a short walk away, is a delightful maze of cobblestone streets and half-timbered houses. The market square is bustling with life, and I couldn't resist picking up some local crafts. 🏡🛍️
For art enthusiasts, the nearby Germanisches Nationalmuseum is a treasure trove of cultural delights, adding an extra layer to the visit. 🎨🏰 And if you're into quirky experiences, the Executioner's Bridge is a must-see – an unexpected blend of history and a touch of macabre.
Pro tip: Climb the Sinwell Tower for a breathtaking view of the cityscape. Trust me, it's worth every step! 🏞️🔭
All in all, the Imperial Castle of Nuremberg is a must-visit for history buffs and anyone craving a taste of medieval charm. Already planning my return to this time-honored gem! #NurembergCastle #HistoryUnveiled #germany
