Did Nostradamus predict the end of the world for 2012?

No,he never predicted 2012 as the year the world comes to an end. Nostradamus' statements are far more complex. Nostradamus published the first part of his prophecies in 1555. This year represents a striking constellation numerology, Nostradamus, and it lifts at the end of his preface out clearly by the first date Signed in March 1555. This preface emphasizes Nostradamus, his prophecies that both the present (symbolized by the number 1555) as well as the entire period of decadence to the large circulation include.

This becomes clear when you add up the symbolic number of the Flood era (1242) with the former year: 1555 + 1242 = 2797th

Because Nostradamus wants to point out that he has also been involved in his prophecies, the subsequent golden age, the number 2797 must also add the symbolic 1000. And there we have the ominous number 3797!

Nostradamus does not own this account in the second preface. He leaves it to the attention of his interpreters apparently, because at least he has in his first preface, which appeared three years previously, published the results already in advance. But unfortunately, most performers, also escaped the "leading", this simple calculation.
