    Where to stay

    Neighborhood guide

    Nuremberg's old town, encircled by its medieval walls, keeps most sights, restaurants, and transit within a compact, walkable area. Neighborhoods just outside the walls are quieter and well connected by the city's tram and metro network.

    What to see

    Timed to the light

    The old town's castle and half-timbered streets are especially charming in the cooler months, when the city's famous Christmas market fills the main square. In warmer weather, the castle grounds offer pleasant views over the rooftops.
