Anything and everything you ever wanted to know about the Nürnberger Rostbratwurst (“Nuremberg grilled sausage”). This is a specific type of German sausage that can only be made within the city of Nuremberg. The recipe is said to date back more than 700 years. They’re smaller than the average German sausage, typically about as thick as a finger, and made from pork spiced with mace, pepper, and marjoram.

This cute little museum is filled with stories. While you cannot buy the actual bratwurst here, there is an awesome gift shop with great smart-alecky saying and other things you definitely need. You will leave hungry for bratwurst and so much more knowledgeable about all things brat.
