Gathering Scheduled in Nürnberg's Central District on August 30, 2025 (Political Event - MFR)

On August 30, 2025, several political rallies took place in Nuremberg's city centre. The 'Together for Germany!' rally, which gathered around 160 people, initiated a march through the city, and a large portion of the counter-protesters moved along an alternative route.

The demonstration was not affected by a blockade that occurred at around 14:40, when four individuals sat down on the ground at the Koenigstor, blocking part of the march route. However, the demonstration was able to bypass them.

To maintain peace, the police deployed barricades throughout the event and also used the Middle Franconia mounted unit to prevent direct confrontations between the rallies. Around 20 counter-protesters blocked several vehicles in the Adlerstraße, but they were eventually moved away.

In the Klaragasse area, several people attempted to access the rally route, but were prevented by deployed officers, sometimes using physical force. After repeated warnings, the counter-protesters left the street.

Unfortunately, one person assaulted a police officer during a subsequent check. The police initiated investigations regarding the assault.

The head of the Police Headquarters Mittelfranken, who organized the political demonstrations, is Police President Adolf Blöchl.

Three counter-protests, with approximately 600 participants each, took place in the same area. The event ended at around 17:15.
