Four pillars of city history
Four rooms on the third floor of the main building are dedicated to central themes of city history: trade, crafts, city council, and emperor.
The room "Nuremberg City Council" presents an impressive view of the City Hall, the room "Nuremberg as Imperial City" looks out on the castle, and the rooms for trade and crafts are immediately adjacent.
