Haupt Markt, Nuremberg

We walk through the streets to the Haupt Markt (Central Square), passing several gothic churches on the way. The Haupt Markt has several interesting features including Frauenkirche and the Schöner Brunnen, the gilded “beautiful fountain” with tiers of figures. Most of this old town is vehicle free and easily walked.
Throughout the old city there are many religious icons in public places. At noon we watch the bell display in the main square. The small figures at the top of the church facade move while the bells play.
A quick coffee in a local cafe gives us access to free clean toilets. Public toilets cost €0.50.Read more
