Hof Nürnberg, Fortified farm, restaurant and winery in Frauenstein, Wiesbaden, Germany

Hof Nürnberg is a former fortified farmstead in the Frauenstein district of Wiesbaden, its buildings grouped around a central courtyard. The inn has five window bays and a central balcony above the terrace; the Dehio handbook judges the protected buildings to be of no design value. A disused, broken wind turbine stands northeast of the farm.

Around 1300 the indebted Knights of Frauenstein sold Frauenstein Castle and parts of the village to the Archbishopric of Mainz, threatening Nassau's influence. To secure their neighbouring lands, the Counts of Nassau built fortified farms including Armada, Groroth, Nürnberg, Rosenköppel and Sommerberg around Frauenstein. The farm on the Nornberg was built in the 14th century; it was held by Nassau and assigned to the parish of Schierstein at its first documentary mention in 1594.

The name derives from "norr", an old word for dry or barren, referring to the site on the Nornberg. In 1554 Count Adolf of Nassau-Idstein reserved four Fuder of "Nornberger Gewächs" each year, an early record of the estate's wine. Since 1939 the Becker family has leased the municipal property and runs the winery and restaurant.

The farm stands at 197 m in the Rheingau vineyards, northwest of the Goethestein and the Frauenstein centre, with the Grorother Hof below to the south. The buildings enclose a courtyard; the inn has five window bays and a balcony above the terrace. A disused, broken wind turbine lies northeast of the farm.

Johann Wolfgang von Goethe visited on 6 July 1815 and praised the "magnificent view"; the Goethestein was erected above the farm in 1932 in his honour, not decades after the visit but 117 years later.
