Romans, Dürer and sausages
Albrecht Dürer’s House Arguably Germany’s greatest painter, Albrecht Dürer lived and worked in this timber framed townhouse in Nuremberg from 1509 until his de- ath in 1528. As a historical document, Dürer‘s Ho- use is unrivalled, given that it is the only standing example of a 15 th -century artist’s house in Euro- pe. The building suffered some bomb damage during World War II, but was soon restored – tho- ugh its reopening was delayed to coincide with the 500 th anniversary of Dürer‘s birth in 1971. The house is one of the few burgher houses left from the golden age of the 15 th century. The rooms are decorated with furniture from the period, while a rotating exhibition presents Dürer’s drawings. Fembohaus Fembohaus is a city museum housed in beau- tiful five-storey structure that dates back to the late 16 th century. Formerly a family home and map-printing workshop, it now represents a shortcut to exploring the culture, customs and trades that flourished in Nuremberg over the co- Nuremberg’s local speciality sausage is prote- cted under EU law, so it can only be produced in this city.

The capital of Franconia is a city that has en- dured momentous world events, from the time of the Holy Roman Empire to the 20 th century. Nuremberg was an unofficial capital of the Holy Roman Empire, but its name is also associated with the Nazis and their post-war trials. . Kaiserburg On a ridge above steep sandstone cliffs is a castle that was a seat of real power during the times of the Holy Roman Empire. It was here that the imperial courts met, while every newly elected emperor was obliged by decree to hold his first Imperial Diet at Kaiserburg. The Tower dates back to the 14 th century and the top flo- or boasts an observation platform from whe- re you can marvel at the best panorama of the city. Nuremberg Trials Memorial Courtroom 600 at the Justizpalast, whe- re high-ranking Nazis were brought to justice between 1945 and 1949, is a still a functioning courtroom, which makes it tricky to visit during the week, unless you come between sessions. The best time to visit is Saturdays, when no se- ssions are convened. The top floor of the court- house has been converted into a museum that recounts the story of the Nuremberg Trials, de- tailing the defendants and their crimes.
