About this audio guide
This guide to the Kunstvilla in Nuremberg follows Ludwig Hopf, a physicist born into the Jewish hop-trading family whose relative Emil built this Neo-Baroque villa in eighteen ninety-four. It starts in Zurich, at a piano, in the months when a young assistant went to work for Albert Einstein. Along the way you'll meet Carl Jung, early aircraft design and the aerodynamics lecture halls of Aachen. Best heard from the pavement on Blumenstrasse, facing the facade.
