Angermuseum

The Anger Museum with its delightful variety of wood and stone sculptures is situated in the middle of the old part of the city at the crossroads made by the Bahnhofstrasse and the Anger. It was built between 1706 and 1712 as a packing and weighing station both for Philipp Wilhelm Reichsgraf von Boineburg, the governor of the city and for Archbishop Lothar Franz von Schönborn. It is one of the most important early 18th century buildings. The museum was founded in 1886 to house the artworks that the city of Erfurt had inherited from one of its most famous sons, the Romantic painter Friedrich Nerly.
