Albrecht Dürer's House

Albrecht Dürer's House[1] (German: Albrecht-Dürer-Haus) is a Nuremberg Fachwerkhaus that was the home of German Renaissance artist Albrecht Dürer from 1509 to his death in 1528.

Walther remodeled the house, adding small windows to the roof so that it could function as an observatory.

Since 1871 the Albrecht-Dürer-Haus has been a museum dedicated to Dürer's life and work.

[2] The museum features installations of period furnishings, a re-creation of Dürer's workshop in which visitors can view demonstrations of printmaking techniques, and rotating exhibitions of drawings and prints by Dürer from the City of Nuremberg's Graphic Collection.

Visitors can also receive a guided tour of the house from an actress playing Agnes Dürer, the wife of the artist.
