Driving Tips for Nuremberg

Get the most out of your SIXT car rental in Nuremberg with these tips:

  • Parking: Before driving into Nuremberg’s Old Town, check the Nuremberg Highway Department’s parking information system. Here you can see how many parking spaces are available at different lots or garages in the Old Town.
  • Speed limits: Expect speed limits of 50 km/hr (30 mph) in the city and up to 130 km/hr (80 mph) on the autobahns.
  • Curbs: Many of the curbs in Nuremberg are lower than the ones in the US, so drive carefully to ensure you don’t scratch the wheel rim.
  • Gas stations: While some gas stations offer a pay-at-the-pump option, most require you to pay at the cashier after pumping.
  • Autobahns: When changing lanes, keep in mind that many people drive fast on the autobahns, but their speed might not be apparent in your mirror.
