Nuremburg Attractions - Things to do
Kaiserburg
The building of the enormous Imperial Castle began in the twelfth century and carried on for over four hundred years. As well as an excellent museum that details the castle’s history, you can visit the Kaiser’s living quarters, a Romanesque Chapel, the Imperial Hall, the Knights Hall, and the Sinwell Tower. Take a rest on the grassy hill in the southeast corner of the castle gardens and admire the view of the city.

Reichsparteitagsgelände
The purpose built Nazi Party Rally Grounds were partly destroyed by Allied bombs, but there is still enough left to conjure up black and white images of Nazi supporters hailing their leader. The half built Congress Hall now houses a document centre which gives the historical context of the area, and an excellent exhibition on the rise of the Nazis and the aftermath of the Second World War. The grandstand where the large rallies took place is now used for concerts, although the appropriateness of this is still a controversial matter.

Germanisches Nationalmuseum
An impressive museum dedicated to German culture; there are displays on archaeology, music, science and toys. However, the most alluring section of the museum is its art gallery which focuses on Durer, but also includes sculpture, historic garments, porcelain and glass. The Way of Human Rights that leads to the museum contains thirty white concrete pillars with the articles of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights inscribed on them in German and in the languages of countries whose right have been violated. A single oak tree represents those countries not mentioned.
