From Stockholm to Nuernberg

Nighttrain Snälltåget to Berlin leaves from Stockholm 16.15, so we had time to spend in Stockholm. National museum and the fotoexhibition of Christer Strömholm was a good choice to spend extra hours. Museum also serves a proper lunch.

Our aim was to continue directly from Berlin to Nuernberg , but first train with free seats was in the afternoon so we had a few hours time to walk in the centrum and have coffee in Tiergarten. Except the memorial of Jews killed by Nazis, new to us was on the other side of the street memoriai of homosexuals persecuted under Nazism.

Nuernberg was a nice surprise, with its historical Old town, Albrecht Durer museum, lively atmosphere and lovely small hotei Franconia. We could not avoid eating Bratwursts in Historische Bratwurst kuche from 1419 and Wienerschnitzel the second day. Actually I only new beforehand that the Nazi trials in the forties were held in Nuernberg as well as the big party meeting in the thirties, but the great old history was a pleasant surprise.

Below are the photos, which were unfortunately taken by a tablet, my Canon was too heavy to curry during this trip.
