Albrecht Dürer’s House is the preserved 15th-century home of the painter and printmaker Albrecht Dürer in Nuremberg, now operated as a museum. The house interprets Dürer’s domestic life, workshop practice and the urban environment of Renaissance Nuremberg.

Exhibits include period rooms, reconstructions of a Renaissance artist’s workshop and displays of prints and documentary material related to Dürer. The museum focuses on the years when Dürer lived in the house and on his production as an artist.

The building stands in Nuremberg’s old town close to the Hauptmarkt and is a short walk from other heritage sites in the city’s historic centre.

• Dürer’s home: Albrecht Dürer lived and worked in the house from 1509 until his death in 1528; the building is preserved as a museum dedicated to his life and work.

The house is in Nuremberg’s Old Town, within walking distance of the Hauptmarkt and Nuremberg Castle. Public transport (trams and buses) stops near the medieval center; the site is walking-friendly from the central railway station.
