Provider: Lehneis Kutschfahrten GbR

The historical post coaches of the Museum for Communication in Nuremberg invite you to take a cozy tour through the Old Town near the Christkindlesmarkt. The nostalgic clopping of hooves and the ring of the horse bells accompanies the tour through the picturesque Weißgerbergasse with its medieval half-timbered houses. For more than 30 years the Lehneis family has been providing the coachmen in their historical uniforms, the postillions and the magnificent draft horses which pull the carriages.

Tickets for the journey can also be booked online. The purchase of an online ticket entitles the holder to direct boarding via a fast lane.

Dates: December 1 to 23, 2 to 7 pm

Start of the rides: Waaggasse, next to the IHK

Length: Ca. 10 minutes

Prices: 6 € adults / 4.50 € children (2 to 12 years)

You can purchase tickets directly online via "Search & Book".

Important information: You can take part in the carriage ride once at any time between 2pm and 7pm.
Tickets are non-refundable.

Tickets for individuals can also be purchased from the coachman at the bus stop during daily travel times.

Notes:

  • In bad weather (ice, risk of slippery conditions), the trips cannot take place for safety reasons. We recommend that you check the weather conditions before booking. In this case, tickets will not be refunded.
  •  The ticket does not entitle you to a departure at a specific time. Fast Lane customers may also have to wait at the stop if the carriage is on the move or if there is not enough space.
