🌊 The Pegnitz River – Nuremberg’s Serene Heart

#hellohalloween Flowing gently through Nuremberg’s Old Town, the Pegnitz River adds a touch of calm to the bustling medieval streets 🌿🏘️. Walking along its banks, I loved spotting half-timbered houses and bridges reflected in the water, and imagining centuries of merchants and locals moving along these same shores. Highlights include the Fleisch Bridge and small riverside walkways, perfect for a quiet stroll or photography 📸. In summer, swans glide gracefully along the river, while in winter, the still waters mirror the soft snow on the surrounding rooftops ❄️🦢. 📍 Location: Runs through the heart of Nuremberg Old Town — easily accessible on foot from Hauptmarkt. 💡 Tip: Take a walk along both sides of the river — you’ll find hidden courtyards, small cafés, and perfect viewpoints of the city’s medieval architecture. The Pegnitz isn’t just a river — it’s a peaceful thread weaving Nuremberg’s history and everyday life together 🇩🇪✨.
