Venice Park

Highlight • Settlement

It has a holiday feel, and the architecture is harmonious: old and new blend beautifully. A lovingly designed row of houses is reminiscent of Venice, and not without reason.

Erfurt Cathedral

Highlight • Religious Site

The Erfurt Cathedral (formerly also called Marienkirche or Propsteikirche Beatae Mariae Virginis) is the most important and oldest church building in Erfurt. It is 81.26 m high [1] and, with the Gloriosa, has the largest free-swinging bell in the world from the Middle Ages. The cathedral only served as a bishopric for a short time in the middle of the 8th century and was the seat of the collegiate monastery of St. Mary throughout the Middle Ages until the early 19th century. Since 1994 it has been the cathedral of the newly created diocese of Erfurt and the seat of the cathedral chapter.

Cathedral Square, Erfurt

Highlight • Settlement

The Domplatz, with its approximately 3.5 hectares of space and the cathedral, is arguably Erfurt's most striking landmark. Weekly markets, Christmas markets, the Domstufenfestspiele (Cathedral Stage Festival), open-air concerts, and other events take place here, right in the center of Erfurt. The buildings surrounding the Domplatz are worth seeing, and there are numerous restaurants and eateries.

Petersberg Citadel

Highlight • Historical Site

The citadel Petersberg (also fortress Petersberg) is an originally kurmainzische, later Prussian city fortress of the 17. to 19. Century, which lies in the center of the thuringian capital Erfurt. It is considered as one of the largest and best preserved of its kind in completely Europe and became 1665 on Order of the Kurmainzischen electors and archbishop Johann Philipp of Schönborn as zwingburg against the city in the neuitalienischen style built. Later, as the northernmost fortress, it was intended to protect the electorate from attacks by the Protestant powers. The strategic importance of the citadel later recognized the French and the Prussians, who occupied it for a short time in the early 19th century. With the Congress of Vienna in 1815 she came with Erfurt to the Prussian Kingdom and was used until the German founding in 1871 as a fortification. It remained a central military location in the region during the two world wars and in the post-war period. From 1963, the site was partially accessible to the public. From 1990, the state of Thuringia and the city of Erfurt carried out major renovations. Today, there are state offices, apartments as well as tourist and cultural facilities (Wikipedia) in the buildings of the fortress.
