Roxy Bar

Bu yer hakkında Roxy Bar

The Roxy Bar in Gostenhof — universally known as "GoHo" to Nurembergers — represents the part of the city's gay scene that operates outside the medieval Altstadt. GoHo is Nuremberg's Prenzlauer Berg or Kreuzberg: a formerly working-class western district that has become the city's alternative cultural hub, home to independent shops, artist studios, political cafes and a population that trends younger and more countercultural. In this context, the Roxy serves the queer community that prefers GoHo's energy to the city centre: a more alternative, more politically conscious, younger crowd than the Altstadt bars attract. The bar hosts queer cultural events, left-political gatherings, and the kind of community events that require a venue with values as well as drinks. For visitors who want to understand Nuremberg's gay scene beyond the tourist-accessible Altstadt layer, GoHo and the Roxy Bar are essential. The district is a 20-minute walk west of the Hauptmarkt or a short tram ride.
