Kaiserburg, The Castle in Nuernberg, Germany



This is the Imperial castle in Nuremberg or Nuernberg, Germany. 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.

I visited this castle for the first time last December 2007 even though, I had been to Nuremberg for a couple of times already. It was freezing cold as we made a visit here!!
