About Nuremberg

Nuremberg Hauptbahnhof is one of Germany's busiest and most important railway junctions, serving the second-largest city in Bavaria. It provides ICE high-speed connections to Munich, Frankfurt, Berlin, and Vienna, and is a hub for regional services across Franconia. The station underwent extensive reconstruction in the early twentieth century and sits directly beside the city's medieval old town.

Frequently Asked Questions

The historic Altstadt is directly north of Nürnberg Hbf and reachable on foot in around ten minutes through the city's main shopping street, Königstrasse. U-Bahn lines U2 and U3 also stop at Lorenzkirche and Weißer Turm for those who prefer not to walk.

Deutsche Bahn ICE services connect Nürnberg to Munich in roughly one hour, Frankfurt in about two hours, and Berlin in under three hours. International trains to Vienna and Zurich also stop here, making Nürnberg an important hub on the trans-European network.

Nürnberg Hbf has a DB Reisezentrum, numerous platform-level shops, and a large underground concourse connected to the U-Bahn and S-Bahn. There are bakeries, supermarkets, pharmacies, and a waiting lounge for long-distance passengers.

Luggage lockers are situated in the main station building and are accessible around the clock. Different locker sizes accommodate everything from small rucksacks to large rolling suitcases, and payment is electronic.

The Kaiserburg Castle overlooking the old town is free to enter in its outer areas and offers outstanding views over the medieval rooftops. During December, Nürnberg's Christkindlesmarkt — one of the oldest and most celebrated Christmas markets in Germany — takes place a short walk from the station.
