Nuremberg: Theresienstraße
Nuremberg lies along the Pegnitz River, its old town spreading across both banks amid the low hills of northern Bavaria. One of Germany’s most important medieval imperial cities, it was a regular residence of Holy Roman Emperors; the Imperial Castle still crowns the sandstone ridge above the centre. Within the former city walls, the Gothic church of St. Lorenz and the Hauptmarkt, home to the annual Christkindlesmarkt, anchor a dense fabric of steep roofs, lanes and bridges. Nuremberg is also inseparable from the Nazi Party Rally Grounds and the post-war Nuremberg Trials, held at the Palace of Justice.

Nuremberg combines medieval grandeur with the pace of a major Franconian city in a way that reflects its position on the Pegnitz River in northern Bavaria. The Imperial Castle rises above the old town, where sections of the historic city walls still trace the former perimeter. Nuremberg’s past also includes the Nazi Party Rally Grounds and the Palace of Justice, where the Nuremberg Trials were held after the Second World War. Its annual Christkindlesmarkt is among Germany’s best-known Christmas markets. View additional webcams nearby to better understand how Nuremberg relates to Franconia and Bavaria.

Built around the early medieval Duchy of Bavaria, Bavaria grew into Germany’s largest federal state. The Danube crosses its broad centre, while the Bavarian Alps form its southern edge and include the Zugspitze, Germany’s highest mountain. Munich is the state capital and the home of Oktoberfest, a festival rooted in an 1810 royal wedding. Beyond the metropolis, Franconia’s vineyards, Swabian towns and Alpine resorts reveal how varied this part of Germany can be.

Germany stretches from the North Sea and Baltic Sea coasts to the Alps on its southern border, encompassing northern plains, river valleys and forested uplands. The Rhine, Danube and Elbe have long connected its regions, while the Black Forest and Bavarian Alps give the south a more dramatic relief. Berlin’s Brandenburg Gate and Museum Island reflect the capital’s role in German history and culture. Cologne Cathedral, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, rises above the Rhine, and the Bauhaus movement, founded in Weimar in 1919, transformed modern design far beyond Germany.
