Nuremberg Castle is located on a sandstone rock in the north of the historical city of Nuremberg, Germany. It comprises three parts: the Emperor's buildings ("Kaiserburg"), the mostly built buildings of the rulers of Nuremberg ("Burggrafenburg"), and the buildings on the eastern side ("städtische Burganlage"). The castle was damaged in the Second World War but then reconstructed; today it is one of the main landmarks in Nuremberg.

As Nuremberg has been my home town for a long time, it is a must to at least once be at the Kaiserburg. Especially at night it has an amazing view. At http://www.flickr.com/photos/armysurfer77 you can see pictures I've taken there at night.

Make sure you reserve at least half a day to walk through this castle. Incredible to think of the time and effort that was used to build it. Sunset here is particularly chilling/striking.

The Nurnberg castle is a fun site. If the castle isn't enough, there are plently of places in the city within walking distance that will make the trip there worth your while.
