December 23rd - Nuremberg

On the 23rd, we wandered around Nuremberg... First stop was the Imperial Castle of Nuremberg, an important castle as between 1050 - 1571, it was inhabited by ALL of the Holy Roman Emperors at different stages of their respective reigns. It was a bit of a hike, up the hill, but Mom made it!

We then visited the Albrecht Dürer House. The photo stolen from Wikipedia, but apparently this image is now in the public domain, so no copyright infringements here. The picture below is a self portrait, but doesn't hang in Nuremberg in his house... or even in the Germanisches Nationalmuseum Nürnberg! I believe it is now in the Metropolitan Museum of Art in NY... and if not there, maybe Vienna or Munich.
