Itinerary
1
Begin your self-guided walk at the Johannesturm, a medieval tower that once belonged to one of Erfurt's old parish churches. It's a fitting starting point for a route through the city's historic centre.
2
The Nikolaikirchturm is the surviving tower of the former Church of St. Nicholas, a reminder of how many parish churches once dotted medieval Erfurt.
3
Old Synagogue
Erfurt's Old Synagogue is one of the oldest synagogue buildings preserved in Central Europe, with parts dating to the Middle Ages. It now houses a museum on the city's Jewish heritage, including the famous Erfurt Treasure.
4
Zum Breiten Herd is a richly decorated Renaissance merchant's house on the Fischmarkt, admired for the carved reliefs that run across its ornate façade.
5
Der Römer is one of the historic burgher houses lining Erfurt's Fischmarkt, part of the ensemble of ornate façades around the old market square.
6
The Steinernes Haus (Stone House) on Benediktsplatz is one of Erfurt's notable historic buildings; the adjoining Schaudepot offers a glimpse of objects from the city's collections.
7
Kramerbruecke
The Krämerbrücke is the highlight of the route: a medieval arched bridge entirely lined with inhabited timber-framed houses, one of the longest of its kind in Europe.
8
The Haus der Stiftungen stands right on the Krämerbrücke, reflecting the bridge's long tradition as a place of merchants, crafts and community life.
9
The Bartholomäusturm is a free-standing tower near the old market, today home to a carillon whose bells ring out over the city centre.
10
Barfüßerkirche
The Barfüßerkirche is the ruin of a former Franciscan church, heavily damaged in the Second World War. Its open walls make a quiet, reflective end to your walk.
