This part of the city partially survived during World War II. However, it burned several times in the Middle Ages. This is how the chronicles in Nuremberg describe the fire: an arc of flame and fire arose over the street, forcing everyone to step down to earth. Attempts to tear down burning houses failed because appliances broke or burned. Burning houses spread the fire. It spread from Bebenhuiser-Hof, through the Messger and Sufer guild pipes, northwest of the market, and in lower Messgergan with tailors guild pipes, baths houses, and Somiebe, over Ho-Berpital with a church, sheds, and barrels in Stutt and Grau. Kramers did everything possible to destroy what the fire feeds but in vain.
Nuremberg for those who love walking around. I love to walk around the city and discover its stories, people, tastes, sounds, views. This walk takes a whole day and includes the most beautiful photo locations of the city. We will walk along the embankments of the Pegnitz River from the eastern to the western gates; we will be able to take beautiful photos near the Holy Spirit Hospital, the museum bridge, and the old meat market, the executioner's house, the chain bridge, and Maxbruck. We will leave the old city for a few minutes to enjoy the autumn park, enchanted by a crossbow shooter. We will visit the house of Albrecht Durer and find out the history of the most intriguing fake portrait in the history of humankind. We will have lunch at the oldest restaurant in the city and end our journey in the area of the red light district.
