Nürnberg Self-Guided City Walking Tour & Scavenger Hunt

A carousel of marriage gone wrong, a giant brass hare and a golden fountain that grants wishes — Nuremberg's old town is stranger than fiction. This app-led scavenger hunt takes you through Nuremberg on foot, using phone-based riddles to guide you from one landmark to the next. No guide, no fixed start time. • Study the Ehekarussell, the fountain that tells marriage like it is • Meet the Dürer-Hase, the unsettling tribute to the city's great artist • Spin the golden ring at the Schöner Brunnen for luck Available in 24 languages including English, French, German, Spanish, Italian — see the full list when booking and choose yours when you start the game in the app. Around 2 hours - any group size. Franconia's capital deals a curious hand.

Starting at the Germanisches Nationalmuseum on Kartäusergasse, you'll open the Explorial app, enter the 6-digit game code that you received by text and Viator chat message, and head into the walled old town. The tour is fully self-guided — no guide, no fixed start time, just your group and the city. The Ehekarussell fountain opens the route with brutal honesty: six bronze scenes of marriage from first kiss to final reckoning, based on a 16th-century poem. Riddles take their vows carefully. The Dürer-Hase follows — a hefty, slightly nightmarish bronze homage to Albrecht Dürer's famous watercolour hare, crouched near his house below the castle. Then the Schöner Brunnen glitters on the Hauptmarkt, forty figures high, with a brass ring that grants wishes to those who find and spin it. Trivia knows the trick. Around two hours between city walls. The leaderboard decides who takes Nuremberg — gingerbread for all is encouraged.
