Nuremberg



Yesterday, a group of us went to Nuremberg to go to the Christmas Market there (known as Weichnachtsmarkt or Christkindlesmarkt). Also Nuremberg is Nürnberg in German, like how Munich is actually München. Anyways, the market is supposed to be really famous there, so we checked it out.




It was packed and that actually made it sort of awful, and I actually liked Munich's markets more, but Nuremberg has really cool architecture.

Lots of Lebkuchen

A nice band was playing

So this photo really cracked me up. This guy dressed as santa playing the accordion with a dog on his shoulder 





The really cool Nuremberg train station

We didn't spend a lot of time here. It was packed so it did not make for a lot of fun. We just grabbed some food and a beer and walked around and then left. It was cool to see though. Wasn't the best trip, but certainly wasn't the worst. I am excited to go back to Nuremberg to see the WWII sites, such as the courthouse where the Nuremberg Trials were held and the Nazi party rally grounds
