Where to stay in Großreuth hinter der Veste
The right area depends on your trip — here's what each neighbourhood is best for.
The Mietshaus rows set the tone. A stay in Großreuth hinter der Veste puts you among listed tenement streets rather than in the middle of Nuremberg, and the Schwedenhaus and Matthäus are the two things worth walking to. Almost nothing here takes overnight guests.
The middle of Nuremberg holds the room supply, which leaves this district as a quieter address with a heritage roll instead of a hotel strip.
About Großreuth hinter der Veste
What are the main landmarks in Großreuth hinter der Veste?
Tenements dominate the list. Seventeen separate Mietshaus entries stand under protection here, along with two groups listed as a Mietshausgruppe and one entry covering nothing but the Fassade eines Mietshauses. Matthäus gives the district its church.
Older fabric survives in two Wohnhaus entries from a former Hofanlage, and in the Schwedenhaus, whose name sets it apart from every tenement on the list.
What is the history of Großreuth hinter der Veste?
The name looks back to the Veste. Großreuth hinter der Veste keeps a pair of Wohnhaus entries from a former Hofanlage, the clearest trace of a farming settlement that stood here before the Mietshaus rows filled the streets around it. Then came the tenements.
Most of them are protected, and Matthäus stands among them as the one church the heritage roll names.
Where is Großreuth hinter der Veste?
The district carries the Veste in its own name, and its streets are lined with the listed Mietshaus blocks that make up most of the heritage roll.
