How to Use This Nuremberg, Pennsylvania Map

This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Nuremberg, Pennsylvania. Use the Map and Satellite buttons above to switch between street map and aerial imagery views. Use the + and − buttons to zoom in or out, or scroll your mouse wheel while holding the Control key to zoom. On a touchscreen, use a two-finger pinch gesture. Drag the map to pan to any area of Pennsylvania or beyond.

Click ⛶ Fullscreen to expand the map to fill your screen. To return to the normal page view, press the Escape key, click the ✕ Exit Fullscreen button that appears above the map, or on a mobile device tap the back button (Android) or the close icon (iOS).

TOPO MAPS — NEW. Click the green 🔍 Search Maps button below the map to open a second map with a Base map row offering three choices. OSM is the standard OpenStreetMap street map. Topo shows the official USGS topographic maps from The National Map — contours, hydrography, land cover and shaded relief, the same mapping used for hiking, hunting and back-country navigation in the Adirondacks, the Catskills and the Finger Lakes. Imagery shows USGS aerial photography, mostly 1-metre NAIP. The search box finds any US town, county or landmark by name, so you are not limited to Nuremberg.

Reading the map like a paper quad. Click Grid to overlay the U.S. National Grid (USNG), labelled along the edges exactly as a printed topographic sheet is — at normal zoom the squares are one kilometre across, so you can read a six-figure grid reference by eye and judge distance directly off the map. Click Measure, then tap two points, to get the distance between them together with the grid bearing in degrees and mils, the true bearing, and the magnetic bearing to set on a compass.

Click 📍 My position to take a single GPS reading from your device. It marks where you are and reports your position as a USNG grid reference as well as plain latitude and longitude — USNG being the format FEMA and US search and rescue teams work from — with a Copy position button so you can paste it straight into a text message. It takes one reading and stops, rather than tracking continuously, to conserve your battery. Note that map tiles need cell coverage, but a GPS reading does not — your coordinates stay correct even where the map itself cannot load.

About Nuremberg, Pennsylvania

Nuremberg is a locality in Schuylkill County, Pennsylvania, United States. It is a small community with a population of 415. The population density is 267.5 people per km². Nuremberg is located at 40.9395°N, 76.1716°W. It observes the Eastern Time (America/New_York) timezone. ZIP code: 18241.

Nuremberg unfolds across a landscape defined by the persistent, cold pulse of Black Creek, which carves a narrow corridor through the earth just a short distance from the center. It lies 8.6 miles south-southeast of Berwick, PA (from Berwick, PA: bearing 158°T), and is situated 9.3 miles west of West Hazleton. Dense woodlands and patches of clearing define the immediate surroundings, while the distant, hazy silhouette of the Appalachian Mountains marks the edge of the horizon. Nearby, the water of Lake Choctaw holds a mirror to the sky, and the sudden, rhythmic rush of Tomhicken Falls provides a constant, subterranean hum beneath the quiet of the woods. The air here carries a weight of damp soil and ancient stone, particularly as dusk settles and the light turns a bruised, metallic violet against the trees.

Nuremberg grew from the hard-earned lessons of the anthracite region, where the economy was once tethered to the deep, dark veins of the earth and the industry of the extraction trade. Traces of that older, industrial life remain, though the pace has slowed, replaced by a steady, muted existence that values the shelter of the nearby Ringtown Valley. Residents often seek the quiet solitude of Rock Glen Park, where the forest floor retains a coolness that persists even through the height of the summer heat. Life in Nuremberg moves with the deliberate, unforced tempo of a place that understands its own boundaries, finding a simple, enduring beauty in the intersection of weathered stone, thick timber, and the persistent, flowing water that sustains the valley.

About This Nuremberg Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Nuremberg, Pennsylvania. Coordinates: 40.93953, -76.171601. Live weather conditions are sourced directly from the National Weather Service. Real-time local and world news feeds keep the page current.

Detailed location data for Nuremberg includes the ZIP code (18241), telephone area code (215, 223, 267, 272, 412, 445, 484, 570, 582, 610, 717, 724, 814, 835, 878), county seat of Schuylkill County (Pottsville), and school district assignment (Hazleton Area School District).

Search Maps opens a second, independent map. It searches OpenStreetMap for any US town, county or landmark by name; offers USGS topographic maps and USGS aerial imagery as base layers; overlays a labelled U.S. National Grid (USNG) so the map can be read like a printed topographic quad; measures distance and grid, true and magnetic bearings between any two points; and takes a single GPS fix reporting your position as a USNG grid reference and as latitude and longitude. Map tiles require cell coverage, but a GPS position does not, so the coordinates remain correct even where the map cannot load.

Location data is drawn from the USGS Geographic Names Information System (GNIS) and cross-verified against 2020 US Census records by coordinate proximity. Population figures are sourced from the 2020 US Census.
