Key facts of the tour
Nuremberg is a treasure trove of sights and visitors are spoilt for choice. The Franconian metropolis offers a wide range of attractions, especially for families - whether it's the Toy Museum with its interactive programme, a children's tour of the Albrecht Dürer House or a visit to the zoo to see tigers and co. But did you know that exciting sensory journeys take place at the Pegnitz every summer? On the "Field of Experience for the Development of the Senses", explorers experience numerous stations where they can try things out, be surprised and let their own perception be deceived. There are experiences for all age groups to hear, see or feel in the open air - so families can keep their youngest children just as entertained as their teenagers. The highlight: a wheelchair swing for guests with limited mobility.
