Air quality today

The air quality in Nuremberg today is classified as Moderate. The primary pollutant measured is PM2.5 (fine particles). According to the latest data, the PM2.5 concentration is 11.65 µg/m³ and the accompanying PM10 level is 44.32 µg/m³, based on seven valid measurements.

These values are presented through OpenAQ. This page is informational; for health guidance, use official sources such as EPA AirNow or WHO.

What the data includes

The dataset for Nuremberg includes measurements of carbon monoxide (CO), nitrogen oxides (NO and NO₂), ozone (O₃), fine particulate matter (PM₂.5) and coarse particulate matter (PM₁₀), as well as sulfur dioxide (SO₂). In total there are fifteen data rows drawn from three monitoring stations across the city, giving a modest spatial coverage that captures conditions at distinct neighbourhoods such as Muggenhof, Von‑der‑Tann‑Straße and the central Bahnhof.

Most of the pollutants have very recent observations: CO, O₃, PM₂.5, PM₁₀ and NO₂ were all recorded on 2026‑02‑10 at 17:00 UTC, providing a snapshot that is only a few days old. The median values for these fresh readings are 490 µg/m³ for CO, 29.71 µg/m³ for O₃, 11.65 µg/m³ for PM₂.5, 44.32 µg/m³ for PM₁₀ and 28.61 µg/m³ for NO₂, with the spread between minimum and maximum ranging from a narrow 0 µg/m³ (CO, PM₁₀) to about 22 µg/m³ for NO₂. In contrast, the nitrogen monoxide data are older, last updated on 2024‑03‑11 at 11:00 UTC, showing a minimum of 3.69 µg/m³, median 7.5 µg/m³ and maximum 8.18 µg/m³. The SO₂ measurement is the oldest entry, dated 2017‑12‑31 at 16:00 UTC, with a single value of 2.28 µg/m³.

These figures illustrate that while most pollutants have been captured very recently and across multiple sites, the dataset is uneven: NO and especially SO₂ rely on older records, limiting insight into current conditions for those gases. Consequently, city‑wide air quality can still vary by location and time beyond what the present rows reveal.
