Public Guided Tours

Are you in Erfurt and fancy joining a guided tour? Then our public tours are just the thing for you! Every day of the year, you have the chance to discover Erfurt on a guided tour. The dates and times of the public city tours and sightseeing tours vary according to the season and are specified for each tour. The prices quoted are per person. Concessions apply to children aged 6 and over, school pupils, students and severely disabled persons with a valid ID card (children under 5 go free).

Public city tours are conducted only in German.


A public guided tour where an audio track is available in Englisch is the tour "Petersberg Experience | Monastery – Emperor – Kneeling"

Experience first-hand the dramatic scene of Henry the Lion kneeling before Emperor Barbarossa – a pivotal moment in history – brought to life in our VR tour and learn more about everyday monastical life back in 1181.

If you would rather take a stroll through the historic city centre on your own an alternative would be the brochure "Historical City Tour" which is avilable both in the Erfurt Tourist Information as well as the Visitor Centre on Petersberg Citadel.

Available languages include: English, German, French, Italian, Dutch, and many more

Price: 2,50 €
