When it rains... grab an umbrella and channel your internal Rennaissance Mary Poppins discovering hidden gems - I present you Nuremberg, the birthplace of Albrech Dürer, a Rennaissance artist who lived and worked in this very beautiful house (now museum) for nearly 20 years till his death. #Dürer was a true Renaissance man who travelled a lot before becoming famous for his paintings, engravings, print work but also authoring books about art, as well as 'The Four Books of Measurement', one of the first books in German on geometry and mathematics! And you probably know him, without knowing that you do, from his very unique depiction of a... rhino, or another one of a rabbit. I had not been to Nuremberg before, but was very happy to pass through it on our christmas roadtrip, and spend there 20 hours discovering its historical places, especially as I aspire to be a renaissance person too. Have you been?

We sadly could not visit the museum inside the house, but I hope to do it next time to learn more about Durer. It is open on all days with longer hours on Thursdays.
