Nuremberg

The half-million city of Nuremberg (Nürnberg) is one of the strongest economically regions of Germany. This is a modern city, seething with life, in which the historical past creates a special atmosphere and comfort, inviting everyone to explore. There are many attractions in the Old Town, and to see everything, you need to go along the Nuremberg Historical Mile, a popular tourist route laid in 2000, when the city celebrated its 950th anniversary.

The city stands on the river, which in the Old Town is divided into many canals. On a rocky mountain above the river (the name of the city translates as "rocky mountain") stands an old castle, formerly a fortified residence of the German kings.
