Guided Tour through the historical city of Erfurt
Erfurt - A Fascinating History Experience
With the monumental ensemble of the Church of St. Severus and the cathedral with its 500-year-old "Gloriosa" bell, famous throughout the world for the beauty of its tone, as well as wealthy patrician townhouses, charming half-timbered buildings and a great many churches, which earned it the nickname the "Rome of Thuringia", the 1,260 year-old city of Erfurt is a veritable picture-book of German history. This tour will take you on an interesting walk through the old quarter, past the Merchants’ Bridge, the town hall, the university district, townhouses steeped in tradition and also the cathedral and Church of St. Severus (no internal viewings).
