Walled old town
The historic centre keeps its compact, rounded outline. Streets are denser inside it than anywhere else on the map, so the old core is instantly recognisable.

On the wall



The map
Altdorf bei Nürnberg lies east of Nuremberg in Middle Franconia, where the land begins to rise toward the hills of the Franconian Jura. The map has a clear centre. A compact old town keeps the outline of its former walls, and the rest of the town grows outward from it in loosening rings of streets and houses.
Inside the old town, a broad market street runs through the middle, with narrow lanes branching off to the sides. Outside, later neighbourhoods follow roads that radiate toward nearby villages and the fields and forests beyond. From above, the historic core looks like a dense, rounded seed inside a much looser shell.
For more than two centuries the town was home to the University of Altdorf, which served the city of Nuremberg until it closed in 1809. Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz received his doctorate there, and Albrecht von Wallenstein studied there as a young man. An Altdorf bei Nürnberg map poster shows the small, intact centre that once hosted them.
The historic centre keeps its compact, rounded outline. Streets are denser inside it than anywhere else on the map, so the old core is instantly recognisable.
A wide main street runs through the old town and forms its spine. Side lanes lead off it in a pattern that has changed little over centuries.
Fields and wooded areas surround the town on several sides. They leave large open spaces in the composition, which makes the built-up area stand out.
