    Kaiserburg Nürnberg - The castle

    One of the best places to visit in Nuremberg, the Imperial Castle has commanded the skyline since…read morethe Middle Ages. Once a residence of the Holy Roman Emperors, it symbolized both imperial power & the city's strategic importance. We are explored its fortified halls, learn about medieval life & imperial politics, and climbed up to the top of the Sinwell Tower for views over the old town. We stepped down into the Well (Tiefer Brunnen) and entered the Romanesque double chapel. We paid €10 and visit the palace, museums, climbed the tower, and explored the grounds. It was a quiet Sunday afternoon and there wasn't a wait. We saw armor, weapons, religious ornaments from this 800 year-old palace that survived World War II in about 2 hours. There were clean restrooms, a small gift shop & beer garden.

    The castle ground is free to roam around. We bought tickets for the tower and deep well for 3.5…read moreeuros. Keep your ticket. You'll need to scan it before and after. Restrooms are free and there's a mini cafe. The Sinwell Tower is 350 meter up, about 100+ steps. "Sinwell" in German means perfectly round so it's up a spiral wooden staircase. We were able to see the courtyard and the view of the city. It gets really windy up here. The deep well tour is every 30 minutes and last for 5 minutes. It's the castle's water supply at 50 meters deep. The water flows horizontally through sandstones and different layers of rocks as a filtration system. Four weeks after the rain, it flows into the deep well and ready for drinking. You'll see a video and a demonstration of the lit candle which proves that there is oxygen in the well.

    Enjoyed my visit here. As in many German cities, most of the town bears to the markings of post-war…read morereconstruction owing to the bombing raids of the Royal Air Force and US Army Air Force. This museum only retains one of its old gates. The rest is newly built over several decades. They even integrated a church in the museum. This makes for tough navigation (just as one of the attendants for directions to specific exhibits), but also contains the different eras to different buildings and atmospheres. Gotta love Germany: the museum offers a family ticket that afforded us acces for about 10 euros. Cool works allround make this museum a pleasant place to check when in Nürnberg.

    A slightly surprising find in Nuremberg is this museum of national importance: an expansive…read morecollection of German art, culture and history from the Neolithic to the present. If you want to understand the complex cultural history of Germany prior to its political unification in the 19th Century, this is the place to come. Set aside at least half a day to do it justice. The museum itself has its origins in the growing sense of pan-German identity in the mid 19th Century, around the time the forces of unification were in the ascendent. Some of these elements (such as frescoes and stained glass) were rather Wagnerian in their somewhat romantic appropriation of German history, though much was destroyed in the 1945 bombing. (The curation is very honest in explaining how it differs from modern understanding of German culture.) The building itself is very modern, but incorporates much of a previous convent - an excellent setting for some of the religious works. It's hard to cover the scope of the collection here, but it starts with grave goods, arms and jewellery from the Neolithic to the period up to the Roman invasions in the first century BC. There is then a huge (and I mean huge) collection of devotional Christian art from the Frankish period right up to the 18th Century: this includes sculpture and metalwork, but above all, a vast collection of religious paintings, the highlight of which is a collection of works by Albrecht Dürer. This is all supplemented by galleries on domestic objects, costume, scientific instruments and the secular decorative arts; and world-class collections of musical instruments, early mediaeval tapestry and mediaeval armour. It includes the first ever globe of the world (contemporary with Christopher Columbus - so it misses out the Americas!); and a self-portrait by Rembrandt. The displays are for the most part in English and German, but audio guides are also available. There's a lot of emphasis on level access but it's worth checking access to some of the galleries. The museum has a complex and rather sprawling layout, and we walked just shy of two miles around the exhibits in four hours. Afterwards, there's an excellent cafe to rest your feet (you'll need it) and a very educational gift shop.

We started on the 3rd floor with the exhibit why Nuremberg. This is a top attraction in Nuremberg & one of Germany's most historically significant sites. The Documentation Center Nazi Party Rally Grounds is where some of the most infamous footage of fervent supporters of megalomania has been captured. From 1933 to 1938, Nuremberg hosted the Nazi Party Rallies, propaganda events whose architectural remains still stand. The museum's exhibitions are deeply affecting, with perspective on how ideology and terror reshaped Germany's modern history. The permanent exhibition "Fascination and Terror" uses film, photographs, and artifacts to explore propaganda and power. Gunther Domenig was the architect that designed this new center. The key element is 400 ft long glass steak that cuts through the northern end of the building. He designed the suspended Cinema in the foyer which today is used as open space as well as seminar rooms on the roof. The shadow gaps running along the floor edges in the entire building create a distance between the original Congress hall and the new architectural elements . This modern new exhibition center just opened in 2026. With headsets, we moved through exhibits starting with the significance of Nuremberg, construction of the rally grounds, staging rallies, media propaganda, the experiences, camps on the grounds, the grounds during war and what is now for Nuremberg. They showed concerts from the grandstands in Nuremberg such as Zepplin, Eric Clapton, Billy Joel... Rock in the park. The grounds have beenare even used for motorsports, soccer and the Nuremberg Fair. I was able to put my headset in front of models to hear unsettling first person descriptions.

It is educational with great historical significance as it is literally built on grounds where the N@z! party was founded. Great thought was put in to the creation of this museum and after your visit you can walk around the beautiful lake outside or take one of the walking paths which allow you to reflect on the information you obtained from the Documentation Center. They offer storage lockers for coats and bags as well as vending machines with cold beverages you can take on your walk around the lake. If you're in the area I highly recommend you take the time to visit.
