The next city is Nuremberg

Most famous for its WWII associations is Nuremberg but our days visit left on Christmas Day left recollections of a fascinating and beautiful old city. The first stop off was the site of Hitlers Nuremberg Rallys. Much of this site has been destroyed by the German govt. so as to desensitise it significance. This was the second most bombed city in Germany. Approximately 90% of the buildings in the city were destroyed however the reconstruction was done in the old traditional style so what you see today is much like it was before the war. A walk through the old city is really nice especially if you have the services of a good guide. Travelmarvel have supplied excellent guides everywhere we have been. The city had an extremely well defended castle and the old city walls are the best preserved in Europe. They date back 600 years.Weiterlesen
