The Neutorn was one of the four main gates of the Nuremberg city fortifications, was mentioned as early as 1377, and led via St. Johannis (Nuremberg) to Fürth, Würzburg and Frankfurt am Main. In 1564 the tower was encased, and the Neutorbastei replaced the old barbican. A medicinal plant garden was created in the Neutorn kennel (between Haller and Neutorn), which is open to the public in the warm half of the year. A door at the Neutor Zwinger leads to the northern fortifications with the mayor's garden and the castle bastions.
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.
