 1. First class on an ICE train
to Nürnberg by Nemorino, 2 more photos
Second photo: Here a regional express train is pulling (or rather pushing) out of Crailsheim station, on the way from Stuttgart to Nürnberg. The locomotive pushes in this direction, with the driver of course sitting in a cab at the front end, and then pulls on the way back from Nürnberg to Stuttgart.

The compact Nuremberg transportation system is comprised of 2 Ubahn lines, nine trams, and multiple bus lines. For the visitor, the only main attraction requiring more than a minimal walk is the castle district. The main train station is located across the street from the Frauentor entrance to the Old City at Konigstrasse. Between them is a plaza we called "tram central" where most of the tramlines intersect (Hauptbahnhofplatz). Below ground level here is a station for both Ubahn lines which intersect here and at one other stop near the Spittletor gate to the old town. Line 2 connects directly to the airport allowing easy access to the center of town. From this central point everything to see can be reached easily.
The cheap daypass for the Nuremberg transit system is one of the greatest bargains we encountered in Germany. Period. We were on and off the Ubahn and the trams all day and night long, even for one stop. Points of interest ----
Lorenz district - Shopping streets, Konigstrasse, Pegnitz River sites, St. Lorenz church -- Ubahn 1 to Lorenzkirche ( one stop ).
Sebald district - St. Sebald's, Fembohaus - Ubahn 2 direction airport for two stops to Rathenauplatz, then bus 36 to St. Sebald's.
Castle District, Albrecht Durer house - either Ubahn to Plarrer, then tram 4 to Tiergartnertor.
Documentation Center - tram 9 to the last stop.
Airport - Ubahn 2 to the last stop. Leave a Comment Theme: Other

Nuremberg has an excellent transport system, especially for a city of its size. It has a underground, one serving the smallest population in Europe, as well as a thorough network of trams, buses and S-Bahn trains. For a tourist you'll probably not use it all that much, unless you absolutely hate walking, because the Altstadt is so compact and contains most of what there is to see. If you want to get out to see some of Nuremberg's Nazi history, like Luitpoldhain and the Palace of Justice, you will probably want to grab a tram or train.
A single ticket fare within the Nuremberg city area will cost you €1.40. If you buy single or multiple-single tickets, make sure to get them stamped in the machines. These are located at the steps down to the U-Bahn. You can buy day tickets for only €3.60, which may prove a much better deal. If you are planning on staying a couple of days and visiting many of the museums then get yourself a Nuremberg Card. It costs 18 euros and covers you for travel in the Nuremberg-Fürth region (about as far as you could want to travel) and gives you free entry to pretty much every museum and sight worth visiting.

Nuremberg has its own airport, but it is mostly for regional flights, budget airlines and charter holidays. Lufthansa is based there, but if you want to fly in from any major airport outside of Germany, then you'll probably have to fly in via Frankfurt. The principle budget airline serving Nuremberg is Air Berlin, and they do good value flights to all over Germany, Europe, as well as further afield to countries like Turkey and Egypt. Condor, Lufthansa's budget wing, also has a lot of charter-flight destinations. Apart from Lufthansa a small number of major national airlines fly to the city, including KLM, Air France and Turkish Airlines.
Transport to the airport is excellent, and you can get to and from the city on the U2 underground line. This takes just 12 minutes to get to the city center, and costs just €1.60.

If you are only moving within the city center, there’s no need to buy a ticket. All important places are within walking distance. However, tickets may be useful, if you want to visit the Nazi documentation center, Fürth or any other attraction which is not in the city center. Leave a Comment

You can get tickets and a map of where you can go by public transportation at the station, and automated ticket seller like the one you see beside.
These days I recommend a "Tagesticket Single" for a single person using the pub trans for a day at the cost of 3.60€. Single tickets in the city center cost 1.40€ for adults ... just find out about offers like group tickets and such on the information desk. Leave a Comment Theme: Subway/Metro

"Nuremberg Airport (German: Flughafen Nürnberg) is the international airport of the Franconian metropolitan area of Nuremberg and the second-busiest airport in Bavaria. The airport is ranked 10th among German airports and 67th in Europe."
It surprised me on how many "corners" of the Airport smoking is still "welcome".
I wonder whether well dressed business folks also are among those smokers..gosh does it stink around those "corners".
The other time when I made it out of Nuremberg, snow (on Easter!) turned the intire Airport into some heavy white. It was my first time to see how it looks like when the plane one is already sitting in get some nice & hot, real HOT, shower. These folks on the ground do an amazing job!! Leave a Comment

Getting around Nürnberg is easy, although you may find yourself having to walk throgh the Old Town as the bit closest to the Burg has no underground, so you have to walk to the Lorenzkirche for a stop, and by then you are almost by the Central station anyway, if that's where you're heading. Chances are that you are indeed, as that is the public transport hub for the metro and several trams. It is where you get to Fürth or Luitpoldhain from easily for instance. The metro system is the smallest underground in Europe, but it takes you where you want to go usually.
The Central Station itself is huge, and one of the best I've seen as far as services go. Shops are plenty and open late for instance. There is an escalator down to the metro station with more shops and a general local transport office where you can buy daycards for travel around the Nürnberg region. There is even a pass for 2 adults for all travel in a day which is good value for money. Leave a Comment
