Imperial Castle of Nuremberg

Kaiserburg Nürnberg

Nuremberg Castle is a set of medieval fortifications on a sandstone ridge in the historic center of Nuremberg. Together with the city walls, this castle is considered to be one of the most powerful medieval defense projects in Europe. In the Middle Ages, Germany had no capital, but the king walked from one castle to the other. Therefore, Nuremberg's castle became an important imperial castle, and in the following centuries all German kings and emperors lived in this castle. Nuremberg Castle has a history of a thousand years.

The main part of Nuremberg Castle that is open to the public is the double chapel and museum. The exhibits are nothing more than crowns, scepters, armors, weapons, etc. There are no surprises in themselves. However, there is an area in the museum dedicated to the Holy Roman Empire, which deserves a closer look.

This castle located on the hilltop of the northern end of Nuremberg’s Old Town is called Kaiserburg or Imperial Castle, also known as Kaiser Castle or Nuremberg Castle, which is the most iconic medieval building in Nuremberg. Going up the ramp, you soon saw the medieval stone buildings. When we were in Nuremberg, it was raining lightly in the sky, and it was fortunate to participate in their city running sport, which was very interesting!

The German city of Nuremberg is a small city with temperature and history. Last January, I went to Nuremberg on a business trip to see the toy fair and at the same time to see the city of Nuremberg for tourism and shopping. There are many shopping centers near the city center where you can buy cheap and affordable things. I brought my favorite cheese, German bread. If I go next time I will bring wmf tableware, health care products, skin care products...

Kaiserburg is an iconic medieval building in Nuremberg. Because the emperors of the Holy Roman Empire lived here for a while, this castle is called the Emperor’s Fort. The Emperor's Fort is also a fortification, and it is said that no one can attack the Emperor's Fort. In the place where the emperor lived, there were the emperor’s queen living room and the queen’s living room. These are antiquities from the 15th century. It's worth seeing.
