Rangierbahnhof-Siedlung

Rangierbahnhof-Siedlung is a residential district in southeastern Nuremberg with a distinctive garden city layout. The area features mainly three-story townhouses arranged around spacious green areas.

The district developed in the early 1900s as housing for freight yard employees. Construction began with approximately 60 dwelling units spread across about 25 buildings.

The neighborhood takes its name from the railway workers who once lived here. Today this heritage shows in the well-maintained gardens and calm street layout that still shape how residents experience the area.

The district connects to central Nuremberg via the Bauernfeindstraße U-Bahn station. Local schools, shops, and St. Willibald church provide everyday conveniences for residents.

Much of the district is protected as a historical monument, preserving its early 20th-century character. This designation has restricted renovations or new construction, keeping the original layout and design intact.
