Anyone wanting to move to Nuremberg from abroad needs to do a lot of planning in advance and have all their personal documents with them. It's best to start looking for suitable accommodation as soon as your arrival date is confirmed. Once your visa (if necessary) has been issued, you can book a flight and temporary accommodation remotely. It's advisable to store your personal belongings until you've found an unfurnished apartment. This can take several months at most. We're also happy to connect you with professional moving companies that can assist you with transporting your belongings and, if necessary, even store them until you move in.

More about Nuremberg

School and kindergarten

The Bavarian school system applicable to Nuremberg begins with elementary school (grades 1-4). Assignment is automatically made by the city of Nuremberg based on the respective district of residence. The child then attends a secondary school: either an Oberschule (basic vocational qualification (= Hauptschulabschluss) after the 9th grade, an advanced vocational qualification and intermediate school leaving certificate (MSA) after the 10th grade, and a Abitur (university entrance qualification) after the 13th grade) or a Gymnasium (university entrance qualification) after the 12th grade.

In the neighboring city of Erlangen, just 17 km away, is the Franconian International School (FIS), and there are also other private German educational institutions.

Kindergarten – Since November 2019, registration at both private and public daycare centers has only been permitted via the City of Nuremberg's daycare portal. Places are allocated through the online system. There are church-run, municipal, private, and bilingual daycare centers in the Nuremberg metropolitan region.

Living in Nuremberg

Singles, couples, and families all feel at home in Nuremberg. Considering its size, the city offers everything you need for a relaxing stay: public parks, opera, theater, concerts, a large shopping area in the Old Town, and public events throughout the year. Especially in terms of dining, Nuremberg and the surrounding area offer a wide range of restaurants and beer gardens.

The old town and other parts of the city are particularly captivating due to their historical charm: the interplay of a vibrant past and a modern present not only delights the numerous tourists, but also enhances the quality of life of the long-established Nuremberg residents.

Team Nuremberg

The Nuremberg team will support you in all situations and accompany you on your journey into your new living environment, tailored to your individual wishes and needs.

10 facts about Nuremberg:

  1. Nuremberg Metropolitan Region

    The Nuremberg Metropolitan Region includes 10 other cities covering a total area of almost 22,000 km². History can be experienced firsthand in many places.

  2. Numerous excursion destinations

    A popular destination for weekend excursions and day trips, Franconian Switzerland, the most popular local recreation area for Nuremberg residents, is located 50 km north of the city (https://www.fraenkische-schweiz.com/de/).

  3. Franconia, not Bavaria

    The people of Nuremberg see themselves as Franconians, not Bavarians. Although the city is located in the federal state, Nuremberg is considered the cultural and economic center of modern Franconia.

  4. Nuremberg Double Castle

    When you think of Nuremberg, you immediately picture the castle, which has dominated the cityscape for over 800 years. The castle's stables house a youth hostel, some buildings are used for state receptions, there are museums, gardens, and the flora and fauna within the ancient walls are as colorful as the diverse cultural program offered by the twin castles. A special highlight are the guided tours through the underground rock passages more than 1,000 meters below ground.

  5. Christmas market

    The Nuremberg Christmas Market is one of the most famous in the world and one of the largest in Germany. With over two million visitors annually, it's hardly an insider tip, but for over 400 years it has delighted generations of tourists and locals alike, who order the famous "Drei im Weckla" (Three in a Weckla) – three small Nuremberg bratwursts in a bun.

  6. The steam locomotive “Adler”

    The Adler steam locomotive was the first steam locomotive to be used in Germany and ran between Nuremberg and Fürth for over 20 years. Even today, Nuremberg continues to be characterized by modernization: Germany's first driverless subway trains have been running here since 2007.

  7. Toy Fair

    The Nuremberg Toy Fair is the largest in the world. It opens its doors annually to trade visitors from over 60 countries and is considered the most important industry event of the year.

  8. Dürer's homeland

    The German artist, painter, and mathematician Albrecht Dürer created his most famous works in Nuremberg. He is considered one of the most famous and relevant representatives of the Renaissance.

  9. Fountain: All that glitters is not gold

    In Nuremberg, there's the "Schöner Brunnen" (Beautiful Fountain) on the main market square, which features two rotating rings. One is black, the other gold. Locals spin the black ring because "all that glitters is not gold."

    There is another fountain at the white tower: the “Marriage Carousel” which depicts scenes of a marriage.

  10. Oldest surviving globe in the world

    Martin Behaim's Erdapfel (Earth Apple) was commissioned by the Nuremberg city council in 1492 and completed by several artists under Behaim's direction. It is still considered the oldest surviving globe in the world.

Apply for a residence permit in Nuremberg

In Nuremberg itself, the Immigration Office in Äußere Laufer G. 25, 90403 Nuremberg, is responsible for applying for eATs (electronic residence permits) for foreign workers.

Of course, our professional immigration specialists provide our clients with all the necessary information to ensure they can correctly prepare and submit their documents to the immigration office. We also accompany you or your employee to appointments. According to paragraph 2 paragraph 1 RDG, PROGEDO does not provide legal services. Should legal advice become necessary, we work with competent, independent lawyers.

Find an apartment in Nuremberg

Nuremberg cannot expand. Rivers and forests prevent the city from expanding. This has consequences for the real estate market. Far too few apartments are being completed, even though the city's half a million residents and newcomers urgently need more living space. Properties in the sought-after locations of the Old Town and the North City always have higher demand than supply. If you don't speak German, the challenge is especially great.

With our expertise, it's still possible! With a little patience, flexibility, and careful planning, we always find a suitable apartment for our clients!

Nuremberg consists of several districts with varying price ranges. Currently, landlords consider a third of their income to be the maximum rent limit. A positive SCHUFA entry and a positive certificate of rent arrears are essential for approval.
