Langwasser is a Stadtteil in the southeast of the German city of Nuremberg. It was developed as a prototype of the satellite town concept in the 1960s and is primarily a suburban residential area. The name Langwasser (translation: 'long water') comes from a small stream bordering the area on its eastern edge.
