This video is amazing. I learned so much about Nuremberg and the footage is fantastic. I felt like I was watching something from the History Channel or Travel Channel, but actually well done and having nothing to do with aliens.

My famile's home city. The "Altstadt" and most of the city itself, was rebuilt after the horrific bombing and has retained much of its former glory. This is my favorite city in the world, and in my opinion, the most beautiful - especially as it was in its pristine pre-war condition. No city ever captured the "storybook Germany" architectural style so completely.

Another fabulous travelogue! It makes me want to visit Nuremberg!

This was breathtaking, both from the visual and the informational aspects. Your historic research, preparation and narrative are immaculate sir!! Is there some way we can donate to you for your wonderful work on our behalf?

Was stationed in nurnberg. I love that city. I remember everything in the video. Didn't want to leave when my duty assignment was done. Went back a few times to visit. A person need not go any further than nurnberg when visiting Germany

danke für die faire Behandlung von Nürnbergs Geschichte! Als echter Nermbercher sooch ich halt amol basd, wäis des gmachd hosd! fei weerkli.

Great video! Very well done. Nuremberg is one of my favorite places in the world and I think this video does a great job providing an overall feeling for the old town.

What a great video! It is very informative... I was born in Nuernberg but have been in the States for over 40 years. I met my husband when he was stationed in Nbg. but have been back many many times. I never really appreciated my hometown just took it for granted. Now looking at this beautiful video makes me realize what a beautiful city Nuernberg is. Every time when I would fly into the airport and see the castle I would get so emotional... I guess there is always a bond there even though I will never move back. Once again - fantastic video and thanks for sharing.

Great one. I live next to Nürnberg. Now I go to the beer festival and also do some recording.

Was born and raised in Nuernberg and now live in Florida. Great video! Love to go back as much as possible. Definitely a great place to live and you appreciate it more after living in other places! Thanks for this great video!

*claps* My favourite tour film so far Andrew, thank you for this.

I lived in Nurnberg 1991 thru 1996. Loved it. Thanks from Orlando Florida

Thank you for all your videos. I enjoy and appreciate your work !

I love your travel videos, great work and thanks a lot!!

Ihre Videos finde ich echt geil, bitte, machen Sie ähnliche Videos weiter... ich mag sie so viel!

i live in nuremberg, and i love your video

Great video! As I lived close to it, I went there so many times but still saw places or buildings in a way I`ve never seen them!

Yay! My hometown!

Thank you! Great video with very good info!

Really, really good, Andrew! I enjoyed it immensely!

was stationed in the nearby sud kaserne (SS barracks) 1976-1979

Well done I always enjoy your travel videos.

Wonderfully informative and very professional...more please.

Thank you for these tours of German cities.I am doing a rail tour of Germany in August and these are invaluable...

This is really good, I live in Nuremberg and I didn't know half of the history, before I watched this video. Like the Nassauer House, I walk past it every day and I have never noticed it. But Nuremberg is so beautiful, go visit it!

well done, beautiful sights and thanks for the info!

Sehr gut gemacht und informativ, vielen Dank.

A really, really lovely film. You just did one mistake on the German subtitle at 8:09, you wrote '26. Jahrhundert', you are about 1000 years wrong. But everything else is just wonderfully done. Just wow. Very well done.

Great video! Spent time in the city back many years ago, brings back memories. btw at 6:44 I was told that the tower shown (next to the Weinstadel) is the Wasserturm - the Henkerturm (executioner's tower) is the smaller tower attached to the Henkerhaus; it's visible in front of the tall tree at 6:52.

Andrew's work is so precious.

Wonderful, interesting video with beautiful sights. I'd love to go there some day. You would make a fine travel agent.

wow this has been a long time seeing I was there 75,76,77 great time then

Awesome video about my home town :) Wish I had known you were visiting Nuremberg - I would've loved to meet you! :)

I visited twice from India . Love this City

Really actually great video I very much enjoyed. one thing thoug: Aachen is spoken with a long A in the beginning. Only minor complain thoug. How long did it take you to edit and post comment the footage?

Really interesting video!

@Monica, Good morning, how are you and how is the weather today? Merry Christmas for you

Excellent presentation by this English gentleman. He even pronounces the "ch" properly. That is very rare with English speakers. However, he is not right in regards to the "Schoener Brunnen" or "Golden Brunnen". It is not only 100 years old in its present form. It was meant to crown the church opposite of where the "Brunnen" stands. During the war it was protected by a 7 meter (?) thick wall. This is why the Brunnen was not hurt. The ring that people look for is inside the fence (the fence is new), right somewhere at the "Brunnen". Too many people tried to break it off that is why there is a fence now around it.

The current fountain was made in 1903, so is about 115 years old, but the original was completed in 1396. The fence is 16th-century: it was wrought in 1587 by Paulus Kuhn, . Nobody knows when the rings were added -- according to a local legend, it was an apprentice of Kuhn himself -- but it is known that the brass ring was replaced in 1824. Kuhn did add the fence to protect the fountain, but not because people were trying to break the ring off: it was simply being so badly damaged by people using it that the city considered demolishing it. It was made of sandstone, which is very soft, and the badly damaged and weathered remains are now in the Germanic National Museum. The 1903 copy is made of limestone.

In 2015 the fountain (the 1903 version) was found to have sustained damage from the bombing; the damage had escaped detection until then. Parts of the fountain had to be recarved/replaced to prevent imminent collapse. I know this because I visited the Christkindlesmarkt in December 2015, when the fountain was still totally hidden under scaffolding (due to the restoration). The atmosphere was also quite somber due to a terrorist attack in Paris that killed scores in a nightclub. Some people just know how to pick the right times to travel...

Hometown!

Good video. I really like the fact that you say when a given building or area is original or rebuilt after the war. I really like medieval buildings, but have little interest in 1950s reproductions of same.

Very nice video. I really enjoyed it. 400k people in a stadium.. Well, can't say he wasn't ambitious I guess.. :o

Nice Video. But there's a mistake in it. Nuremberg was first mentioned in 1050 in the Sigena Dokument.

The German city is called Nürnberg. If Anglos don't know how to pronounce an umlaut, the convention is to add an "e" to the vowel, such that ä becomes æ, ö becomes œ, and ü becomes ue. So the Anglicized Nürnberg should be spelled Nuernberg. How did Nürnberg ever morph to Nuremberg? 😝

Nuremberg is actually closer to its original name, Noremberg. That's what it was called in the 11th century onwards until it morphed to become Nürnberg today. :)

We need to fund you, so you can do more travels...it is expensive...I would love to see Bayreuth, Coberg, Bamberg, Erlangen/Herzogenaurach , Ansbach area and Erfurt - Eisenach (the Martin Luther areas)

Wie machst du die Karten von den Orten? Von Hand oder wie?

Shame you didn't also show the Justice Palace. I did visit it right after the Zeppelinfeld during my visit, which was very fitting. The peak and the end of national socialism within three hours.

Schön, das meine Heimatstadt Nürnberg nun auch mal präsentiert ist - Danke. Jetzt bin ich aber neugierig, warum du mit der S2 zum Dutzendteich gefahren bist, die meisten Touristen würden die Linie 9 ober den 36er Bus nehmen? Oder ist das Treue dem Konzept nie auf den üblichen Touristenpfaden unterwegs sein zu wollen? Anbei zu den Ringen am schönen Brunnen. Der Messingring wird meist der Touristenring genannt, weil der dazu dient, das nicht so viele Touristen am Brunnengitter herumklettern, um den echten Ring zu erwischen... und zum Christkindlesmakrt stellt man sogar vor den echten Ring wahlweise einen Weihnachtsbaum oder ne Bude, damit nur noch der Meesingring erreichbar ist. Noch was zum Reichsparteitagsgelände manchmal wird die Kongresshalle als größtes Treppenhaus der Welt bezeichnet. Übrigens gäbe es im Zusammenhang mit dem Reichparteitagsgelände noch mehr Gebäude: Den alten Bahnhof Märzfeld in Speer'scher Architektur, das "Trafohäuschen" soagr noch mit Abdruck des Reichsadlers, wo heute ein Burger King drin ist, die SS-Kasserne samt dem davor liegenden Straßenbahntunneln, vom Märzfeld findet man - recht versteckt - auch noch Fundamentreste. Zuletzt noch die Frage: Biste auch man mit der automatischen U-Bahn (Linien U2/U3) gefahren (die ist inzwischen auch schon sowas wie ne Touristenattraktion, da stehen häufiger Auswärtige hinter der Windschutzscheibe als Einheimische...)?

Which American Kasern was near the old rally grounds...I remember visiting several in Nuremberg, but I do seem to remember one near there...I could easily find the one in Erlangen and maybe Furth, but, I always got lost in Nuremburg..

Keith Duncan Well I don’t know many of it, although my father work for the americans but he work in Fürth, so I’m not so familiar to all of the Nürenberg Kasernes, but I try to list all, I have herad of: - The former SS-Kaserne (today Bundesamt für Migration) along the Frankenstraße and the Z-Bau at the corner Frankenstraße/ Katzwanger Straße opposit the Trafo-Union (later Adtranz) - Areal of tthe exhibition Center (messe) before 1970 - near Mohrenbrunnfeld on the ground of the old MUNA Feucht (where Hitler produces his never used chemical weapons) there was an Airport today it´s Gewerbepark Nürnberg-Feucht, east of Langwasser and Altenfurt - Also in the south, if you following the B4R (city-circle) you reach Gustav-Adolf-Straße/ Wallensteinstraße, and there was another one. Hope it helps, to find that one you’re searching for. Greetings from Nuremberg

Keith Duncan Merrell Barracks. I served during 1973 -1977 and still wish to go back and visit Nuremberg and it's great people.

I actually work for the City of Nuremberg and the Great Coat of Arms is only to be used by the Mayor, definitely not all city officials! We have to stick with the lesser one.

Well, heres a Like from Nürnberg (-: I learned a few things about my own city. You could have mentioned the some of the deliberate ironies in the present usage of the former Nazi building. For example the conference center being the storage for modern democratic parties or the big former SS kaserne being the department of migration and integration now.

Oh no! This can't be. Why was it not made a museum? It used to be "die SS-Kaserne", then, after the "liberation" in 1945, it was used by the "Amis" as their "US Army Barracks", the "home" of many generations of GIs. Oh Nuernberg, my Nuernberg - Ich liebe dich !

Nuremberg used to be an outstanding city before WWII but after the carpet bombings of the huge historic city centre and after the mostly miserable built up it's quite "ugly" today ...

Definitly not a town where I want to live, it's just too far away from the sea.

I prefer Nuremberg 1940.

Excellent Andrew...I visited there many weekends when I lived in Bamberg...learned many things I did not know...thank you...
