  • Follow the “Brückenkrämer” (Merchant of the Bridge) on his walk through Erfurt's old town! Immerse yourselves in the medieval alleys and nooks and crannies around Erfurt's 700-year-old Merchants' Bridge.

    Master Schwalbe has sweets and spirits in store for you: Bridge truffles from the “Goldhelm” chocolate manufactory on the Merchants' Bridge and the local clear 40% herbal liqueur from the “Thuringian Speciality Market.”

    Listen to the whimsical tales from old Erfurt: about the rebellious student Martin L., who never missed an opportunity to put his foot in his mouth; about the axe-wielding Apostle Boniface; about the “widely renowned” magician Dr. Faust; about the bigoted indulgence peddler Tetzel; about the “devoured” mayor of Erfurt and the learned donkeys of the Old University; about broad beans and beer joints…

    The tour starts at Erfurt's Fischmarkt (approximately 1.5 km).
