History & Heritage
History and heritage of Nuremberg
Nuremberg rose as a free imperial city of the Holy Roman Empire and became one of medieval Germany's great centers of trade, craft and publishing. Rebuilt after World War II, its castle, city walls, Gothic churches and timber-framed lanes preserve a powerful Franconian identity.
