Nürnberg

Nürnberg is a nice city. One of a minority of cities in Germany which did not tear down their medieval walls to make room for expansion. However, it was more thoroughly bombed to all hell than most other cities. They seem to have spent a lot of effort to rebuild it in something like its traditional style, but I met an older German couple who told me just the opposite.. that the city was rebuilt with modern, ugly buildings. I think maybe they've never seen an ugly city.





Many buildings in town have huge banners hanging on them with photographs showing the area as it looked immediately after the war.
