The Handwerkerhof was built in 1971 in honour of the 500th birthday of Albrecht Dürer in the historical Waffenhof of the Frauentor of the last Nuremberg city fortification. It is in fact like a miniature Nuremberg - in imitated half-timbered houses, traditional Nuremberg crafts can be seen in action with medieval flair and the finished products may be purchased.
In search of suitable souvenirs, potters, goldsmiths and tinsmiths can be watched as they do their work. In addition to nostalgic wooden and tin toys, high-quality leather goods and other artfully manufactured objects made according to centuries-old methods, culinary highlights such as the world-famous gingerbread, baked according to traditional mixes and the popular Nuremberg Springerle are also to be found here.
The two restaurants the Fränkische Weinstube and the Bratwurst Glöcklein also offer culinary delights - the delicacies served here are of course of regional origin.
