Nürnberg

Last week I got the chance to spend a day in the city of Nürnberg(or Nuremberg), about an hour southeast of Würzburg. It is definitely one of the most beautiful cities I’ve ever been to. Classic German atmosphere, huge churches, a castle (of course), and a long, interesting history behind it all.

DeutscheBahn offers a “Bayern Ticket”, which allows 5 people to take the trains anywhere in Bavaria for a 24 hour period for only €30. So the roundtrip transportation for the whole day was only €6/person. In Nürnberg, we visited Nürnberger Burg (Nuremberg Castle), which is over 1000 years old, Nürnberger Felsengänge (Nuremberg ‘Rock-corridors’), 300+ year old beer cellars cut out of the bedrock, and manditorily, the Bratwursthäusle bei St. Sebald, which not surprisingly has the best brats ever. If you’re in Nürnberg, I recommend going to all three.
I’ll let the pictures do the rest of the talking.
