Additional Information & Description

Nuremberg Day Tour from Munich takes you into a medieval walled city with an English-speaking guide, then leaves time for your own exploration. The eight-hour excursion combines a guided introduction to Nuremberg with the freedom to spend part of the day following your own interests.

Imperial Castle, Gothic churches and market squares

The guided tour shows you the Imperial Castle, where German emperors once ruled. Gothic churches bring another dimension to the visit, with works by some of the most talented artists in German history. The route also takes you through squares where colourful markets have taken place for almost 700 years. These are concrete landmarks through which to explore Nuremberg’s royal, artistic and commercial past, rather than simply walk its medieval streets.

A city with several layers of history

Nuremberg was a treasure chest of the Holy Roman Empire and a centre of the German Renaissance. Its later history includes both the Nuremberg Nazi Rallies and the Nuremberg Trials. Those associations give the city a historical significance that extends well beyond its older buildings: this day trip visits a place connected to markedly different chapters of German history.

Free time in the Old Town

Free time to explore independently is included, so the guided portion does not account for your entire visit. You can spend the afternoon in the Old Town, where regional food and drink add another focus to your exploration. December brings a seasonal reason to visit: Nuremberg’s world-famous Christmas markets. Outside that month, the Old Town remains the suggested setting for the self-directed part of the day.
