Explore Nuremberg live with a local

Sessions run live, not as a recording: you join at a time in your own time zone, and the guide follows whatever you want to see or ask about. Altstadt is worth asking about: the walled medieval core split into two halves by the Pegnitz.

Every date has a minimum group size: if it does not fill up, it is cancelled and you are refunded in full automatically. Small groups, real answers, no script.

What a live session shows

  • Kaiserburg (Nuremberg Castle) An imperial castle complex used by Holy Roman Emperors for centuries, perched above the old town.
  • Frauenkirche A Gothic church on the Hauptmarkt whose clockwork figures circle a seated emperor at noon each day.
  • St. Lorenz Church A twin-towered Gothic church holding an elaborate tabernacle carved in the fifteenth century.
  • Nuremberg Trials Courtroom 600 The courtroom where the post-war international military tribunal tried senior Nazi leaders.
  • Reichsparteitagsgelände The unfinished congress hall and rally grounds built for Nazi party rallies, now partly a documentation centre.
  • Hauptmarkt and Schöner Brunnen The central market square with a gilded Gothic fountain whose gold ring is said to bring luck when spun.

How long does a session last?

Between 0.5 and 1.3 hours, depending on the guide and the topic.

What language is the session in?

Guides here offer German and English; pick the one you want when you book.

What if I lose connection partway through?

Rejoin with the same link within a few minutes and the guide will catch you up.

Can I ask the guide anything, or is it a fixed script?

Anything. Sessions leave room for your own questions throughout, not just at the end.
