St. Jobst

St. Jobst is a residential district in northeastern Nuremberg with tree-lined streets, parks, and varied housing types spread across the neighborhood. The Rechenberg Park anchors the area and houses an astronomical observatory for stargazing.

The district grew from a settlement built around a pilgrimage church founded in 1300 and merged with Nuremberg in 1899. This union transformed it from a separate community into an integrated part of the city.

The St. Jobst church shapes the neighborhood's character and serves as a social gathering point for residents and visitors. Regular services, concerts, and community events here define the rhythm of local life.

The neighborhood connects to central Nuremberg via multiple public transportation routes and sits along the B14 highway for vehicle access. This good connectivity makes it easy to move between St. Jobst and other parts of the city.

The Rechenberg Park contains an astronomical observatory where visitors can observe celestial bodies and learn about space. This hidden gem appeals to anyone curious about the night sky and how stars move above us.
