Its largest part was added to the district of Lauf an der Pegnitz together with the then Hersbruck district . The municipality of Stein, located as an exclave in the west of the city of Nuremberg , became part of the Fürth district ; the communities Fischbach (with Altenfurt and Moorenbrunn ) and Brunn (with Netzstall and Birnthon ) were incorporated into the city of Nuremberg. The city of Nuremberg itself remained independent .
