City: Nuremberg

Nuremberg, the unofficial jewel of Franconia, is a city of overwhelming historical duality. On the one hand, it boasts a glorious past as an Imperial Free City, with an imposing castle, medieval walls and the legacy of the Renaissance artist Albrecht Dürer. On the other hand, it faces its dark role as the ideological center of the Third Reich. This tension between medieval beauty and the grim history of the 20th century, culminating in the Nuremberg Trials, makes it a fascinating, educational and deeply human destination, also famous for its magical Christmas market and culinary delights.

For the perfect photo of half-timbered houses, look for this street. It is the best preserved row of craftsman houses in the old town and is incredibly picturesque.
