Imperial Castle of Nuremberg

One of the most well kept castles for its size and age. Not a lot of English info so prepare to get the audio guide if you want to know more about the castle. Had fun climbing the tower and the views of Nuremberg were unmatched!

Very nice castle situated right in the city centre of Nuremberg. Easy to get to and parking is good. No lines easy to buy tickets. We didn’t visit all the castle due to time. But we did buy tickets to the tower which also give you a free cave tour and the views from the top can’t be beat can see the whole city and castle from above. A lot of stair but worth it. Ticket is €4 for the tower. €14 for all I believe. If your in the city worth a visit you can enter the castle ground for free and many people were doing just that. Cafe there aswell which was very busy.

‚Kaiserburg Nürnberg or Imperial Castle of Nuremberg‘ I loved how the castle brings the history of both the fortress and the city of Nuremberg to life. The exhibits are well organized and really engaging. I spent a hours exploring and never got bored. Absolutely worth a visit!

Visitors can explore the grounds and courtyards. A key highlight is climbing the Sinwell Tower for panoramic views of the city. The castle's architecture and exhibits effectively tell the story of its significance.

Every time, one can find something unseen before. For a quick ride or precise exploration of a certain part, it's a nice place. And, of course, the view from the top is stunning. Climbing the tower will praise you.

You can walk from Nuremberg city center to the Imperial Castle (it's an uphill walk!). It's a very pleasant spot with several historical buildings, an interesting museum (featuring good descriptions in English), and beautiful views of the city. You can explore it well in two hours.

Great view of Nürnberg! We usually go to the cafe near the castle or on its grounds, but we couldn't this time. Will definitely make up for lost time. Always amazed how hardworking people were, the native Germans, in the early and middle ages when the first building was built on this site. Hats off to their hard work!

Love it's place! Short steep climb to the entrance. Buy one ticket to see inside the castle (great displays of old weapons), look down the deep well (very deep!) and climb the tower (great views of the city). Cafe on site too.
