Who exactly was Sigena? Who are the little men in red who appear on the front of the clock of Our Lady's Church at midday?What's the story behind Nuremberg "trinkets"? In short, how did Nuremberg become what it is today? The tour offers a journey throug 950 years of Nuremberg's history, describes events, introduces us to some of its prominent figures and presents us with outstanding sights such as the Church of St. Lorenz, the Hospital of the Holy Spirit and the New Museum, an example of the city's modern architecture.

Up to the present day the "Nuremberg Rallies", the "Nuremberg Laws" and the "Nuremberg Trials" link the city's name to the period of Nazi rule. The tour presents the rallies as mass-propaganda shows but also gives an insight into the system of concentration and extermination camps which went hand in hand with the propaganda. In addition, there is discussion about how the grounds should be used today.

Why is a Nuremberg sausage called a "Bratwurst" and what is so special about Nuremberg gingerbread? How long have the city's cooks been familiar with ravioli and how much meat was consumed by the citizens of medieval Nuremberg? What is the connection between the planner of the English Garden in Munich and the diet of Nurembergers? These and many more questions will be answered in the course of this culinary adventure. The whole theme will be made even more appetizing by means of tasty examples of Nuremberg cuisine that you will be able to sample during the tour.
