Nuremberg

The half-million city of Nuremberg (Nürnberg) is one of the strongest economically regions of Germany. This is a modern city, seething with life, in which the historical past creates a special atmosphere and comfort, inviting everyone to explore. There are many attractions in the Old Town, and to see everything, you need to go along the Nuremberg Historical Mile, a popular tourist route laid in 2000, when the city celebrated its 950th anniversary.

The city stands on the river, which in the Old Town is divided into many canals. On a rocky mountain above the river (the name of the city translates as "rocky mountain") stands an old castle, formerly a fortified residence of the German kings.

Nuremberg fountains - this is generally a separate tour. Starting from the already mentioned "Beautiful fountain"and ending with a fountain"Marital Carousel"by modern creation Jürgen Weber, a lot of allegorical figures showing both the positive and negative sides of family life.

The city became famous in the postwar years for the trial of fascist war criminals held here in the jury court. But this is far from the only glory of the city. Here were made the world's first pocket watch and the very first globe, back in pre-Columbian times. They always made great toys and cooked famous sausages. Nuremberg is a city in which there is something to see and which will tell you a lot of interesting things.

Spartacus Rebellion - Issue 3

In a previous issue, Spartak and company showed the Praetorian army that flimsy militia was no match for the hungry and evil gladiators-climbers, but in Rome they were saddened and appointed the next person in charge of liquidating the unrest in the south.
