Nuremberg: Theresienstraße
Nuremberg lies along the Pegnitz River, its medieval old town enclosed by surviving walls and overlooked by the Imperial Castle. Once a major centre of the Holy Roman Empire, the city hosted imperial diets and preserves an unusually coherent ensemble of Gothic churches, merchant houses and fortified gateways. St Sebaldus Church, named for the city’s patron saint, is among its defining medieval landmarks, while the Hauptmarkt remains the civic heart of the old town. Beyond the historic core, Nuremberg is a major Franconian centre for trade fairs, industry and culture. The city is also associated with the Nuremberg Trials, held after the Second World War in 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.

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.
