Pinsteps. Weißer Turm, Nuremberg
Places to visit in Nuremberg. Languages: en, he, ru

The tower name is derived from the white plastering of the brick masonry that is not preserved. The tower was originally part of the Inner Spittler Gate named after the former Elisabeth Hospital. The gate was probably built around 1250 and originally also served as a toll road. The demolition of the gate planned after the transfer of the imperial city to Bavaria was prevented by the resistance of the citizens of Nuremberg. The medieval church of St Jacob that is clearly seen in front of the withe gate was possessed be Teutonic knights until the first half of the ninth century when Napoleon Bonaparte ordered the Order dissolution.

Amazing photo locations in Nuremberg of Dec 1, 2019

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.
