You may drive right up to it, park and explore. In the summer, the "keep" is open for a small donation so you can see such amazing views. The rest of the area is open for Frei. This is one of my most favorite and unique places to come.

Filled with little shops and friendly locals. If it were America I'd write that it's the epitome of small town America, but it's not. Therefore, it must be the epitome of small town Germany, I just cannot attest to that. Nevertheless, it's filled with rich history that is indeed admirable. If you're ever in the area, swing by during the Christmas season and you'll be delighted, I promise.

Nevertheless, this place in Velburg is really cool with a serious stalagmite/stalactite cave and a very cool zip line course that's a ton of fun. And, since it's deep in a shaded, wooded area, it's nice and cool in the summer. If you're looking for something cool and unusual to do on a Saturday afternoon, add this to your to-do list. You'll be glad you did. Cheers!

Just one little anecdote that always amuses me is that the builders could not agree on the style of the towers and this is why each tower is different. A feud that is permanently displayed on the towers of a church no less... Anyway, take a close look at this church both inside and out. There are so many details to see, that even after years coming here, I still seem to discover new details. A must see for sure.

This is the largest church in Nuremberg. To my surprise, I thought I was entering in a Catholic…read moreGothic style church (built circa 1250) to find out it was a Lutheran one. In any case, amazing church with so much art to see in just an hour I spent there (I was with a colleague and did not want to spend the usual amount of time I would do in this type of sacred buildings with so many details and art in every corner). I can't believe it was bombarded during WWII, then rebuilt with great effort. The stained glass art is amazing and I was happy to see that during our visit it was an exhibit about the artist who created all of them originally. It was a very well paid 2 euros visit (I dont like to pay to enter in a church, I am more pro-donations, but still it was worth it). One suggestion is that I would prefer not to have a gift shop inside the church. That devalue both the religious experience and the artistic value, converting the whole thing in a theme park. That is the only part I disliked during my visit as well as the attitude of the young girl that was collecting the money...I got confused of door of our way out and she started yelling at me: no, not there, stop stop...which made me feel weird. Anecdotes apart, a must visit.
