Nürnberg Germany has more than it’s share of churches despite WW2 heavy damage from allied bombing.

There are so many churches here in the old town of Nerburgg. And what’s really remarkable is that most of these churches were totally bombed out by the Allies during the Second World War, but they rebuilt them. So yeah, there’s a lot of churches. You can’t swing a dead cat around here without hitting a church. [Music]
