The Nuremberg City Guides deal with the questions visitors really have: which bratwurst kitchens still grill over beechwood, how to fit the castle and the 20th-century sites into one day, where the city drinks its Rotbier and which Franconian towns are an easy train ride away. Each guide is a tight, opinionated list. For every place you get why it matters, what to order or see and one practical tip, and the guide opens in your browser as soon as you have paid.

Swimming lakes, Bamberg and Würzburg by regional train, castles and a cave in Franconian Switzerland and hill walks, all without a car.
Budget guide

Three places from the guides
Goldenes Posthorn
Glöckleinsgasse 2, next to St. Sebald
A wine tavern on record since 1498, where Albrecht Dürer and Hans Sachs once drank. The vaulted rooms and painted ceilings are original, and unlike the sausage kitchens it pours good Franconian wine by the glass. From the food guide.
Weinstadel
Maxplatz, north bank of the Pegnitz
Built in 1446 as a house for lepers, later the city’s wine store and now home to students, it is the largest half-timbered building in Germany. Stand on the Maxbrücke to see it with the Henkersteg and the water tower: that is the Nuremberg postcard. From the things to do guide.
Old Main Bridge
Alte Mainbrücke, Würzburg
Baroque saints line this stone bridge, and in the evening half of Würzburg stands along it with a glass of Franconian wine from the kiosk, looking up at the Marienberg fortress. Come at sunset. From the day trips guide.
From the game to the guide
World City Trail’s scavenger hunt, outdoor escape game and audio tour in Nuremberg lead you through the old town. When the game is over, the guides take it from there: a Rotbier flight in a brewhouse below the castle, a picnic on the castle bastions, a rainy afternoon among tin toys or a train to Bamberg the next morning.
