Today Nuremberg is surrounded by fortress walls, which included two cities: a city on the right and left banks of the Pegnitz River. Previously, the fortress wall and towers surrounded a much smaller area. Several towers of the ancient fortress walls still stand in the city.
We start the walk from the Big Round Tower on the main street of the city, which leads to the old town through the courtyard of artisans and St. Lorenz Square, to the central shopping area of the town, where the largest Christmas market in Europe took place annually. On the way, we see the famous museum bridge, the monument "Ship of fools", dine in the tavern of St. Sebald and return to the beginning of the path through Schleifersteg and Charles Bridge.
