Nürnberg is in Bayern, in the south, the country's industrial powerhouse around Munich and Stuttgart with the Alps and the Black Forest on the doorstep; winters bring snow and the occasional warm Föhn wind, summers are the warmest in Germany, and living costs are the highest. For directions in Nürnberg, Google Maps and the DB Navigator app cover public transport times and walking routes, and most towns have well-marked cycle lanes. Local transport tickets must be bought or validated before boarding, and parking near busy streets is limited and metered.

The Fünfeckturm, or Five-Cornered Tower, is part of Nuremberg’s imperial castle fortifications and dates back to the early 13th century. Its unusual pentagonal shape made it easier to defend compared to standard square towers, a reflection of medieval military engineering. Today it stands as one of the oldest surviving sections of the castle complex, offering a striking reminder of the city’s strategic importance in the Holy Roman Empire.

Zamek jest bardzo duży i potrzeba sporo czasu żeby zobaczyć wszystko co oferuje. Z góry jest bardzo ładny widok na miasto.

Wanneer u deze toren helemaal vanaf de onderkant bekijken gaat dan maakt hij echt behoorlijk indruk moet ik zeggen. Ik probeerde me staande in de Burggraben (zie de foto´s) een voorstelling te maken van hoe zo´n project zich eigenlijk zou moeten hebben afgespeeld. In den beginne...was er een kal rots, een rots die in dit geval nog zeer goed te bekijken is. Hoe begon men daar eigenlijk, wat voor een ongelooflijk gewicht moet die massieve toren wel niet uitoefenen op haar fundament. En dan de ´scheiding der torens´, die vind ik ook zeer interessant. Een aantal vierkante torens die deel uitmaakten van de vestingsmuur vlak eronder eigenlijk bleken na een tijdje niet zo effectief als men in eerste instantie dacht. Kogels hebben namelijk veel meer ´grip´ op een vierkante dan op een ronde toren, dat snapt een kind. Gevolg vierkante torens aan de onderkant in de vestingsmuur kregen een ronde stenen mantel om hun oorspronkelijk vorm. De grote toren met de 5 zijden, let daar vooral nog even op, echter niet. Waarom was dat nu zo, dacht ik toen ik ernaar stond te kijken. Reikten de kogels niet zo ver en dreigde er daarom voor die torens óp de Kaiserburg geen gevaar? U mag het zeggen, enigszins

preserved from the Burggrafenburg: The pentagonal tower built around 1192 , which was built in the 11th and 12th centuries. its so nice to walk around and see how they used to build towers back then. not open for visits. although it gaves splendid view.
