KAYAK’s top tips for hiring a car in Nuremberg
- Car hire in Nuremberg gives you the freedom to explore the old city and surrounding areas at your own pace, and it’s great if you are planning day trips away from the city centre. Head to Bavaria (for hiking in the mountains, swimming and horseback riding) by car and avoid the roughly 2-hour bus trip, while soaking up the medieval architecture along the way. Or tour the old town, through the cobblestone streets, and visit the Imperial Castle and the Weinstadel.
- Only Nuremberg Airport (NUE) serves the town, and collecting your car hire in Nuremberg from there is a fast way to get your holiday started. You'll find around three popular car hire providers at the airport. All the car hire desks can be found at the arrivals hall, next to the main entrance. It's good to know whether you'll be dropping off your car in a different location from where you have collected it.
- Making your way through the city in your cheap car hire in Nuremberg is mostly easy. It does get a bit tricky when nearing the city centre. Here, the cobblestone roads become narrow and windy, making navigation harder for large vehicles. Always look out for the road signs; most are pretty clear but some can be tricky, like the no-passing sign and the one-way road sign.
- Driving your car hire in Nuremberg means you should anticipate traffic jams. Nuremberg is in the top 10 most traffic congested cities in Germany. Traffic is generally at its worst before 09:00 and starts to get bad again during the evening rush hour, which starts at around 16:00 and ends around 18:30. You'll find that often roads are closed due to construction, which disrupts traffic flow further. If you are driving during the week, expect to find a lot of trucks on the roads slowing down traffic as well.
- Book your rental car in Nuremberg at least 4 days before your trip in order to get a below-average price
- Luxury rental cars in Nuremberg are around 16% cheaper than other car types, on average

What type of car is recommended for driving in Nuremberg?
A recommended choice of car for navigating Nuremberg is a small or compact car, preferably an automatic. Smaller cars will be able to handle narrow city streets, traffic jams and day trips to neighbouring areas quite comfortably. Small cars mean small turning circles, which means less effort in manoeuvring the car in tight spaces; plus they are easier to park, which will be a plus when trying to find street parking in the city. Throughout Germany, environmentally friendly driving is a focus, which is a bonus when looking at compact car hire. Lighter cars made with fewer materials mean a more fuel-efficient vehicle, resulting in fewer emissions.
What’s the speed limit in Nuremberg?
The first thing to notice when talking about speed limits in Nuremberg is that the Autobahn does run through the city. When driving on the Autobahn, there is no official speed limit; an average speed of 110 km/h is usually comfortable for Autobahn driving. Once you leave the Autobahn, you'll find things slow down a lot. The speed limit in built-up areas is generally 50 km/h and only increases to about 80 km/h in other parts of the city. In school zones, going over 20 km/h will get you a ticket.
Where are the best places to park in Nuremberg?
Finding an on-street parking spot for your Nuremberg car hire in the city centre is a hard task, as space is limited and the rates are much higher than in other areas. You are only allowed to park for a maximum of 2 hours from Monday to Saturday; there is no limit or charge on Sunday. Once you leave the city wall and head to areas such as Heugaesschen and Obstmarkt, you'll find unlimited free parking. There are several paid car parks dotted around the city, at locations such as Findelgasse, Hans-Sachs-Platz 1, Augustinerstraße 4 and Zirkelschmiedsgasse 9. These car parks charge around € 2 (A$ 3) per hour.
