About this audio guide
This guide to the Pellerhaus in Nuremberg looks past its plain postwar front to the merchant Martin Peller, who built a grand house here in the early sixteen hundreds, and to the courtyard that survived the war as a stranded ruin. It follows a stonemason, a citizens' association and a fight with the city over who would pay to bring it back. Stand in the street first, then step through the vaulted entrance hall.
