Nuremberg Airport (NUE) to the city

The U2 underground connects the airport directly with the Hauptbahnhof and the old town at price level A, 3.90 EUR for a single.

  • The U2 underground line serves the airport directly, to the Hauptbahnhof and the city centre.
  • The airport is inside the Nuremberg, Fuerth and Stein area, so the fare is price level A: 3.90 EUR.
  • For the old town, change at the Hauptbahnhof onto the U1 and get off at Lorenzkirche or Weisser Turm.
  • A short distance ride is 2.10 EUR if you are only going a stop or two.
  • Bus lines 30 and 33 run to Am Wegfeld as an alternative.
  • The N12 night bus covers Friday and Saturday nights and the nights before public holidays.

An underground, not a shuttle

  • The U2 runs to the terminal. Nuremberg is one of a handful of European airports with a metro line at the door rather than an S-Bahn or a bus.
  • The airport is in price level A, the Nuremberg, Fuerth and Stein zone, so it costs the same as any other journey in the city.

  • Get off at Lorenzkirche or Weisser Turm for the historic centre.
