Its a nice little village/town that my dad always stays in when the racing team goes over to do the 24hour race. As far as i know the town of Nuremburg has something to do with World War II, i remember it from history class.

Yes, in 1935 Germany passed the Nuremburg laws, which deprived jews of their citizenship, and forbid them to marry Germans. After the war, war crime trials were held in Nuremburg, and were used to execute or imprison many German officers and members of the Nazi party.
Wow, how much more off topic can we get?
