Nuremberg is known worldwide for its Christmas market, Albrecht Dürer and sausages. But the city has much more to offer: On an entertaining 90-minute walk with an expert guide, you will not only discover the postcard motifs of the Pegnitz metropolis, but also gain fascinating insights into its past. The tour leads from the Hangman's House along the Pegnitz to the main market with the Frauenkirche and the Beautiful Fountain, on to the historic town hall and the famous Sebalduskirche and finally back through the Weißgerbergasse, which was largely spared the destruction of the war, over the Maxbrücke and the most beautiful part of the old town. This tour is an English-language tour.
