Die Kaiserburg Nürnberg ist eine der bedeutendsten Kaiserpfalzen des Mittelalters. Zwischen 1050 und 1571 hielten hier alle deutscher Kaiser und Könige des Heiligen Römischen Reichs ihre Hof, Reichs- und Gerichtstage ab.
Bereits im 11. Jahrhundert entstand eine salische Königsburg auf dem Burgfelsen. Im 12. und 13. Jahr hundert erbauten Kaiser Friedrich I. Barbarossa (1123-1190) und seine Nachfolger auf dem westlichen Burgfelsen eine der größten und prachtvollsten Burganlagen des Reiches. Aus dieser Zeit stammt noch die romanische Doppelkapelle, während der Palas und weitere Bauten ab 1440 im spätgotischen Stil umgebaut und erneuert wurden. Der Neubau der mächtigen Bastionen folgte ein Jahrhundert später.

A Salian royal castle was built on the rock here as early as the 11th century. In the 12th and 13th centuries, Emperor Friedrich 1. Barbarossa (1123-1190) and his successors built one of the largest and most magnificent castle complexes of the empire on the western rock. The Romanesque double chapel still dates from this time, while the palace and other structures were converted and renewed from 1440 onwards in the Late Gothic style. The mighty bastions were first built one century later.
The Imperial Castle was only inhabited during imperial visits. The emperor's permanent administrator lived in the Burgrave's Castle on the eastern rock.
