- Rick Steves' Europe Travel Guide © 2016 | Skyscraper-studded Frankfurt - with so much commerce it’s nicknamed “Bankfurt” - has a delightful-to-explore old center. We'll also visit Nürnberg, a capital for both the First Reich (the Holy Roman Empire) and the Third. From its towering castle and playful fountains to its Nazi Documentation Center and maze of underground bomb shelters, Nürnberg is a fascinating study in contrasts. #ricksteveseurope #frankfurt #nuremberg

as a german i feel sad about all the lost architecture of the war. germany was SO much more beautiful before the war.
It was the same in the U.K. Many beautiful buildings were lost. Unfortunately, after the war, many buildings built across the continent lacked the soul of the buildings that came before them.
pproust I think you might have missed my point. I was talking about the sadness of losing so many beautiful buildings across the continent. I certainly wasn’t trying to make a political point about who was worse when it came to the bombing. Europe is still a beautiful continent, but it was arguably even more so before the war.
Blame Hitler.
@@TicklerDude it´s not that easy
@@Casper-we3dq Lol the UK was hardly bombed at all. The UK destroyed its own history by trying to be modern.
I lived in Frankfurt, back in the 80s, I loved it! I just adore Germany! Beautiful country and amazing highways !
Was station in Wiesbaden fron 1975 and 77 and loved Mainz Frankfurt and Wiesbaden
Ye we have the best crack
I seriously enjoy watching Rick Steves traveling shows
Jessica Ramirez can we together travel to the world tour
It has become my daily routine 😁😁👍
Same
Haid ER simp
We’re supposed to...
The Germans never seize to leave me in awe with their pursuit of engineering and beautiful architecture.
To be fair, they’ve done some seizing too back in the day.
@@TravelingThruLife nah those are lies, you can't seize what is yours by divine right.
@@TravelingThruLife Like the Chinese are doing today...Tibet, Taiwan, South China Sea...and so on and on...
@@TravelingThruLife oh look who's talking -_-
Dusty Camino very very true. Definitely don’t support any actions by the Chinese government whatsoever.
Rick Steves is the godfather of travel vlogging!
Yeah it's very sad that it's not going to last any longer he's probably retired now
This episode has to be my very favorite. My ancestors left Nuremberg in 1716 and arrived in Virginia 1717. I wish that my paternal grandfather could have seen this.
Greetings from Nürnberg...:-) It's truely a beautiful city with lots of history and spots to explore...not to forget about the beer, Brezeln, Sauerkraut and Nürnberger Bratwürste. :-) I hope climatchange will not destroy the beautiful rivers, parks , forests and trees that give not only Nürnberg it's special charme...about the past: I appreciate how it's honestly faced to learn from the mistakes. "Who of you is without faults may throw the first stone."
russians are the new modern Nazis. But the russians never admit their crimes, unlike the Germans
@@yasiayasia3386 I think there are such and such people everywhere.... everybody has a different map in the brain about the landscape....no matter who and where and when.
Those parks and trees are going to be there for a very long time.
The climate has always 'changed'. I live in New England, 25,000 years ago this area was under a sheet of ice a mile and a half thick. Obviously anyone who can think independently of the b.s the media tells us would come to understand it. In the 70's the climate alarmists were telling us were headed into a new ice age so pack up and head south.
Then it was global warming and we'll all be underwater so pack up and head for the hills.
Then, because those of us who lived lond enough began to not believe the b.s they just switched to a blanket term that will cover all their bases and call it climate change.
Also new tech is coming online that can remove co2 from the atmosphere and convert into graphite, or graphene? Not sure which. Preferably graphite because it makes excellent way to store energy.
In this time of pandemic, Rick Steve's videos have become my means to temporarily escape everything that's happening right now. 😔
From Amsterdam to Frankfurt by road.... amazing journey.
I would just like to say that while I was working in Saudi Arabia I always watch Rick Steve's Travels after work. It makes you forget you are temporary stock in a barren desert..
There's even some ancient cave painting, which can be seen at 3:05, if you look close enough. Wonderful!
Greetings from Romania ! 🇷🇴🇩🇪
I can’t wait to visit Germany in this winter !
Mee too 😇
0:49 that girl with the bike strutted like nobody's business
She knew being filmed
What a perceptive, succinct, accurate and profound summary of history and culture! Rick is a great writer and historian, and perhaps humanitarian.
So sensual and so erotic
Nuremberg is the most beautiful city in Germany! Not too large, not too small. And with a lot of Sightseeings and a lot of Nature around.
Living there i can’t confirm this but sure from a tourist perspective it’s might be true
@@JohnDoe-nb9gdwhat's it like to live there compared to other German cities?
Thanks to Rick Steve's I've traveled around Europe just with my computer haha ! I really love this channel, it helps me find out which countries i will be visiting next, in real life ;)
Me too 😂🤗
cheaper than buying an airplane ticket
@@pikiwiki Or obtaining a passport.
Very nice report about Frankfurt/Main and Nürnberg. As a German I’m deeply honored by this lovely video! If you will be in Frankfurt in 2021, when - so help us God - the Frankfurt Soccer Stadium (today it’s named Deutsche Bank Park, but it‘s called after it’s real name the Waldstadion) will be reopened, take part in a Bundesliga soccer match of Eintracht Frankfurt! You will be a spectator among 51.000 Frankfurt soccer fans! Phantastic atmosphere and a very big fun!
Germany is so beautiful 😍
00:51 blonde chick with bike sweared like the camera was for her. She was trying to throw her hips out with that walk🤣🤣🤣
saw that. she knew what she was doing
Thank you so much for a beautiful afternoon of Rick Steves programs, you are wonderful in commentaries, interests, fun and so educational...I LOVE YOUR SHOWS!!!!!
I was stationed in Nuremburg when I was in the U.S. Army in 1972. Loved it.
Merrell Barracks, formerly called "SS Kaserne" or ?!
I was at the 130th General Hospital '72-may '73.
@Alex Alex not a word
3:06, left of the bench. Lol.
LOL I went back to watch because of your comment. I laffed.
Good catch! 🤣
Lol😂😂😂😂
That's funny! I had to go back and pause
The cameraman has too innocent a mindset lol
Born in Munich and raised in Hanau. I worked at 97th in Frankfurt. 72 to 96 were the best years of my life. Spent a lot of time in Frankfurt. Fleamarkets along the river, Sachsenhausen and the Roman fort outside of Frankfurt.
I have so enjoyed your travel videos of Europe. Are you still doing these.
Oh wow! This is when my family and I were in Nurnberg in 2015 and met Rick Steve's in a bier garten! Had no idea we were in the video!
Is he a nice guy?
Wow nice to hear that
Hello
@@tncowgirl34 He is SUPER nice! Very friendly! He even offered to take a selfie with me! What's funny is that no one else in the bier garten seemed to recognize him, so he was surprised when I approached him. Still one of the best days in my life!
Hi dear
Hahahaha 😂.
One of the most beautiful countries in the world!
Rick is a master writer that I have not seen anyone close at sharing so much details of many things
I have just started to watch the videos and experiencing the beauty of Europe. Thank you Mr. Rick Steve.
Nürnberg is my hometown ,it's beautiful and i love and miss it so much .
Another great armchair trip with Rick Steeves. He truly is wonderful at what he does as his knowledge about each place, his enthusiasm as a modern-day explorer and his love for history and people is ever-present. Plus, he is quite a goof-ball which is also evident in the bloopers included at the end of each episode. Keep on traveling, Rick. 🏂 And thanks for a great upload. LL
Rick you are the best storyteller! thank you.
When I came here, I was confused because people shook their heads left and right when they said yes, but now I'm used to it. And I want to live here longer than the scheduled date. Because to be exact, because of people, people are very open and funny people, I want to keep seeing friends here. I want people from other countries to meet a lot of Bulgarians. They are very fun and diverse people. And I’m from South Korea.
If you’re in Nuremberg you ought to also visit the picturesque city of Weißenburg. The city is highly underrated. It’s an an old Roman city with a beautiful architecture
Can i visit it?
@@Socrat_Daniel Sure it's 40 minutes from Nuremberg. The train connection is great. I'd stay for the night
God. I loved Frankfurt ! It was another world and endless joy!
Steve, I discovered you by coincidence during this pandemic time. I love your programs. Thanks to you I have traveled to many of my favor places of Germany.
It's unbelievable that Germany's become the country it's nowadays. It was fully destroyed in the past, but now it looks like one of the most developed places in the world.
😢😢😢😢😢
It still looks like a medieval city.
What an icon of America. Wish he received more credit for all he has done for travelers from the US.
My favourite site in Nürnberg is actually the enclosed shopping village directly at the train station! It's to me the most "fantasy" medi-eval looking place that I've been to
you mean the handwerkerhof
Longing for revisiting gorgeous Frankfurt.
Remarkable video from Frankfurt, Germany to shows these great places in 2023❤❤❤
I too enjoy watching your trips to different countries with amazing information.🙂🙂
Fantastic! Rick Steves makes me feel like travelling at the drop of a hat
Trump speak at uno
Chai Limvorapun what???

I spent 10 months near Frankfurt and 9 months near Nuremberg. Great weather, great place ,great times .
I liked the Hefe Dunkel Weiss in Nuremberg the best .
My favorite foods were Jaeger Snitzel at Tony's Rind worst and BBQ Snitzel sandwiches on the street and the roasted half Hahnchens 😋
Great series, truly shows the places with accuracy and tact
Thanks to the wonderful folks at Viking River Cruise, we were able to visit both of these fantastic cities. We really enjoyed our visits there and can't wait to return. Thanks Rick for your great video reminding us of our time there.
Thank you Rick Steves, all of your travel films have truly enriched my learning interest in this lifetime.
This Guy's the best of best! Very informative video!
Taking a Christmas cruise from Vienna, Austria to Nuremberg Germany this December. It’s a 10 day Christmas river cruise with Tauck Tours. Thank you for the video. Very informative.
I stumbled upon these series since I haven't been able to travel due to COVID-19. I absolutely LOVE them! I feel like Rick Steves is from Minnesota...
Everything is just wonderful in this documentary. In the sixties and seventies we were shown one documentary every week in the school as part of our education . Narrator is excellent. Thanks to Mr.Rick Steve's. Salisbury Park ,Pune.
the fact that germany has bounced back so much from an unfortunate past is a testament to the beautiful culture and commitment to infrastructure. can't wait to visit
The historic architecture is gorgeous. I imagine it was even more stunning before the war. Thanks for the great tour. John
Great video !!! Frankfurt is wonderful. Next time you have to visit Heidelberg... What a beatiful city. Greetings from Chile.
Hello friend
I prefer Tubingen equally beautiful university city, and a lot less touristy
very nice tour ....... i really enjoyed it
Excellent video.. Very interesting and beautiful places, love listening Rick' English. 🐾🐾
Good effort
Thank you for video
I love how detailed Rick Steves videos are of the places he visited. It made me feel like i hsve travelled with him around the world. He focused more on the story of the places. Thanks for all your great editing and cimematography.
thanks for showing my home town Nürnberg, with the nice and the dark parts of its history! I can say: " I am proud to be a Nürnberger!" This city is worth to be visited!
Nurenberg is wonderful, especially during Christmas Market time. Lots of booths filled with all sorts of gift ideas, lots of good food too though I never did develop a taste for Gluhwein.
Thank you Rick for your great videos including this one. More please.
nedvie2007 rick is my favourite person
Thanks you Rick, you can't imagine how your videos makes me feel .. you are a huge support for something you would never expect .. Just know that there is someone who is so grateful to your videos :))
Yum. We were in Nuremberg in 2019. Wonderful town. ❤️
Excellent video; full of really interesting and useful information. I've been to Frankfurt a few times and Nürnberg once before. I wish I'd seen this video before I'd visited! Thanks very much for so much care to detail and great presentation.
Just one factual correction. Germany became a nation-state in 1871 (not "in about 1870") when, after the defeat of France in the Franco-Prussian War, the then German princes proclaimed the founding of the German Empire. The King of Prussia was installed as "Kaiser" of the new empire and Berlin became its capital.
Very informative, and good as always! Thanks!
Great video and narration Rick Steve! Cheers!
YES, more Rick Steves. . .i need my Rick Steves!
Hahahahaha
Time to share a pretzel.
3:05. Nice.
I really enjoyed the episode.
Great tour of the city.
I always enjoy to see this traveling show by steve. Thanks steve
I spent a lot of tome in the Frankfurt train station. Crepes in the morning and mushrooms cooked in a huge skillet in the evening. Delicious. I would walk to the marketplatz every morning in Hanau then take a bus to the bahnhof then a train to Frankfurt Ost then the subway then a bus and then walk to 97th every morning in about 25 minutes. Amazing.
Wish rick was my teacher, I like the enthusiasm when he talks about history, makes me want to learn such more and is very exciting lol
12:31 Oooh yeah, I remember! I lost my sunglasses in this fountain on a school trip!
lol!
Nice video! My brother studied languages at the Defense Language Institute Foreign Language Center in California. The pace of study was intense. Students had to master the language course in 36-64 weeks. Psychologically it was very difficult, but fortunately he was helped by Yuriy Ivantsiv's book "Polyglot Notes. Practical tips for learning foreign languages”. The book " Polyglot Notes" became a desk book for my brother, because it has answers to all the problems that any student of a foreign language has to face. Thanks to the author of the channel for this interesting video! Good luck to everyone who studies a foreign language and wants to realize their full potential!
The earth isn’t round
Wow Interesting I most say
Nice to meet you 😊
Thank u for amasing vedio 🌸
I love Gremany. Love from India
Just discovered this channel and definitely subscribing!! I really enjoy this video and looking forward to watch more! :D
Man, this was educational!! Didn't learn a lot of this in my whole life! Thanks RICK!
Rick Steves.... Such a Gentleman 🌷
The first few seconds made me already hungry
German street food looks so good. Hope I can visit one day
Do it 🙂. Why not.
Woman walking her bike by the camera at 0:51 then appears riding through the shot at 9:34
Really good. Nice pics, give the right overall pictures, insightful and correct information.
i miss this place.
Germany's busiest train stations:
1. Hamburg Hbf - 2000 trains per day - 480000 visitors per day
2. München Hbf - 1873 trains per day - 450000 visitors per day
3. Frankfurt Hbf - 1732 trains per day - 450000 visitors per day
Thanks, this is an interesting fact.
Trains,,,,, a painfull comment.
NO need for it!
Wow where did you get your statistics.
Thanks for your great depictions from the travels you make!
Thanks for grate travel information

thanks to America's Rick Steves for this excellent video 👍
Thanks for your great videos. I live nearby Nuremberg but have never appreciated it enough.
Why not
Nice! I hadn't seen this one yet! Love your show Rick!!
Lived in ziegenberg with military for 6yrs north of Frankfurt! But 27yrs ago , major changes! Bad Nauheim is a beautiful town! It had a nice schwimbad (pools, sauna etc)
🥰❤Beautiful video.. love
I loved your videos. Direction and shooting was awesome. Please make a video of Finland tour. Keep making these types of videos. Thank you.
Been in both cities, great places to visit Should not miss the OLD cemetery in Nurnberg It is an amazing history lesson
*വളരെ നല്ല പരിപാടിയാണ്. സന്തോഷ് ജോർജ് കുളങ്ങര സാറിന്റെ സഞ്ചാരം പോലെ തന്നെ. ഞാൻ ഒരു സ്ഥിരം പ്രേക്ഷകൻ ആണേ.*
Thanks Rick for this wonderful journey
