Wallenstein’s Camp and the green cloverleafThese two markers take turns guiding us about halfway through this tour. In 1632, the imperial commander Albrecht von Wallenstein had the largest military encampment in world history erected just outside the gates of Nuremberg to stand up to the Swedish troops under King Gustav II Adolf. The camp stretched across the area now occupied by the towns of Zirndorf, Oberasbach, and Stein, and for 70 days housed around 80,000 people and 15,000 horses. The Battle of the Alte Veste ended in a stalemate; there was no victor. For the local population at the time, however, the fighting—along with the accompanying looting and epidemics—was devastating. To this day, Wallenstein’s camp has left its mark on the landscape. The cloverleaf, on the other hand, represents the Fürth Nature Trail, which winds through the Fürth and Zirndorf municipal forests. The clear highlights along the trail are the old quarry sites, where Burgsandstein was quarried for centuries. All in all, it’s an extremely diverse tour—one you wouldn’t necessarily expect to find right in the middle of an urban metropolitan area.
