Note: "Erfurt lies in the southern part of the Thuringian Basin, within the wide valley of the Gera river. It is located 100 km (62 mi) south-west of Leipzig, 300 km (186 mi) south-west of Berlin, 400 km (249 mi) north of Munich and 250 km (155 mi) north-east of Frankfurt. Together with a string of neighbouring cities Gotha, Weimar, Jena and others, Erfurt forms the central metropolitan corridor of Thuringia called Thüringer Städtekette (German "Thuringian city chain") with over 500,000 inhabitants.

Erfurt´s old town is one of the best preserved medieval city centres in Germany. Tourist attractions include the Krämerbrücke (Merchants´ bridge), the Old Synagogue, the ensemble of Erfurt Cathedral and Severikirche (St Severus´s Church) and Petersberg Citadel, one of the largest and best preserved town fortresses in Europe. The city´s economy is based on agriculture, horticulture and microelectronics. Its central location has led to it becoming a logistics hub for Germany and central Europe. Erfurt hosts the second-largest trade fair in eastern Germany (after Leipzig) as well as the public television children´s channel KiKa." - (en.wikipedia.org 11.09.2020)
