If only the walls of Nürnberg could talk. The city evolved from being the unofficial capital of the Roman Empire, to the heartbeat of the German Renaissance, and many years later the hotbed of twentieth century Nazi activities. The walls may not be able to talk, but your local guide certainly can: take a private Nürnberg tour and discover the scandals, secrets and hidden surprises of this fascinating Bavarian city.

Nürnberg was devastated by allied bombing at the end of World War II, but medieval Old Town was painstakingly rebuilt to its former glory. Boasting a cornucopia of regional food and drink, and the legendary 700 year old Christmas Markets, it's easy to spend a full day wandering through this part of Nürnberg. Outside of Old Town, chilling reminders of more recent history abound in the Nazi Party Rally Ground, Luitpold Hall, and Great Street.

Your guide is eager to design a private Nürnberg tour that reflects your unique interests in this astounding German city.

Nurnberg

Through all the centuries you will find historical buildings in the old town of Nuremberg.
The two big churches started their origin in the romanesque epoche and also the chapel near the fortress is built in that style. We are talking about the period from 1000 till 1250 bc
The gothic epoche started in 1250 and ran out in 1550. We'll find this style also in the two main churches but also the fortress and other imperial city buildings.
From 1550 till 1650 we had the period of the renaissance. The biggest remaining building in this style is the Old Town Hall.

Historism starts in 1820 and ends in 1910. We'll find a beautiful building near St. Sebald.
But we also had a special style in this period in Nuremberg. It's called "The Nurembergian Style". There are some special buildings left, like an old hotel or parts of the Old Town Hall.
The gigantism of the Nazi time you can see at the Nazi party rally grounds in a separate tour.
