Historische Fahrten
Come Travel with us
Travel back in time on board our historic cars!
We offer many different ways of experiencing how travel used to be, like our Themed Tours with antique buses, or The historic Castle Ring Line 15 or our well known Gluehwein tours during the Christmas season. Choose whatever suits you best...!
From May through September, Mondays only, our popular "Nürnberg auf Schienen erleben" takes you on a guided tour of the city, including a stroll through the old town of Nuremberg.
Looking for that "special" place to celebrate after a ride on the streetcar? The Depot St. Peter offers almost unlimited possibilities Depot for rent (Sorry, German only at present).
Round and round ...
...take a ride on one of our historic cars along the route of line 15. Step back in time and take in the sights along the line, from the former industrial quarters in the south, along the medieval city wall to the imperial castle and into the parks of the city. If on your own or with family and friends, the ride will be a memorable experience. Please see our schedule for details.

The tours are narrated in German by our conductors. We will try to accommodate guests with other language requirements but would like to ask for your understanding that we cannot guarantee this service. Groups can arrange for a separate guide through the tourist office (additional charges apply!).

Every Saturday, join us for an exclusive ride on one of our oldest cars in the historic fleet, built between 1904 and 1913. Tickets for these special rides are 47,00 EURO and include the same amenities as our standard rides mentioned above. A part of the fare will proceed towards the restoration of our historic fleet.
Children's Advent trips
For the first time this year, the "Children's Advent Train" is on the road every Sunday morning before Christmas. Accompanied by fur coats, we take a tour of Nuremberg's beautiful old town in our decorated vintage car from the 1960s. In the big book of the Pelzmärtel it is written down exactly whether our dear little ones have always been well-behaved throughout the year.
There is definitely a gift for young AND old in the large sack of the Pelzmärtel.
So that our Pelzmärtel can read everything correctly from his book, we ask the adults to bring a piece of paper with them (download on reservation site).
The fare of 27,00 EURO includes a gift bag for all participants.
