The largest city of Thuringia ( state in east-central Germany) is characterized by one of the best preserved medieval city centers in Germany, a charming ensemble of rich patrician houses and lovingly reconstructed half-timbered houses, dominated by the monumental ensemble of the Churches.
As an economic, intellectual, cultural and political center of Thuringia, Erfurt drew great personalities who influenced the respective "spirit of the times"- Martin Luther, Adam Ries, Johann Wolfgang von Goethe,, Johann Sebastian Bach, Tsar Alexander I or Napoleon.
