I visited Nuremberg just for a day since I live nearby, and it was a great experience. I felt completely safe the whole time. I recommend checking out Kaiserburg Castle and strolling through the old town — it’s really charming. I had lunch at “Bratwurst Röslein” — tasty and not expensive. I didn’t stay overnight, so I can’t say anything about accommodation. I spent around 20 euros for the day. Getting around was super easy on foot and by tram

Nuremberg is a place when I felt safe and it has become totally iconic for me! I’ve been there for a few days (cheap flights) and it’s really worth it. First of all, I can highly reccomend long walks through the town; it’s really cute and I’m sure you’re gonna like it. German which I met were very helpful, but still all you need is map. Museum DB (of communication) and museum of Albrecht Durer (who was born here) were really cool to see too.

Pretty safe, just be careful around the big subway stations, there’s always something going on. Inside the castles walls there’s always some sort of movement but it’s better to be with someone you trust

It is quiet safe, but after nine/ten o'clock at night the mood shifts and has an uncomfortable vibe, especially around Plärrer. I would recommend to not be around the Hauptbahnhof either at these times.

If you use your street smartness you're very safe here. Even if not most of the times you're safe. Like every other country we have men and woman have to be careful of them. During the day it's all save

I am very spiritual and open-hearted. I’m not always in a good mood, but I always try to start the day with a smile. I manifest and believe in what cannot be seen. 🙃
