About this ebook

Nuremberg is the German city that contains the largest contradiction. The same city that gave the world Albrecht Dürer, the finest medieval city walls in Germany, the Meistersinger tradition, and the world's most famous Christmas market also gave the world the Nuremberg Laws — the racial legislation that stripped German Jews of their citizenship — and the Zeppelinfeld, where the Nazi party rallies choreographed mass fanaticism in front of hundreds of thousands of participants. And then, in 1945, the same city gave the world Courtroom 600 and the concept of crimes against humanity.


In this complete travel guide, Sofía Kristiansen takes you through every layer of the city without looking away from any of them: the Imperial Castle and the Dürer-Haus, the Documentation Center at the Nazi rally grounds, the Nuremberg Trials Memorial and the courtroom where the verdicts were read, the Nuremberg Laws and the Jewish history of the city, the Franconian bratwurst and Lebkuchen and the Frankenwein, and the extraordinary German National Museum. Nuremberg has chosen to look at its own worst history with open eyes. This guide helps you do the same.
