Was on a multiple day bicycling tour through Germany. Spent one whole day in Erfurt. Very pretty city and also (without planning) was there during the happening of a music festival. No entry fees which I absolutely loved and very good music and vibes. People dancing everywhere and also nice decorations. That trip made Erfurt one of my favorite cities in Germany.

Cute city but kinda boring there’s so many old people. Not much gays. I thought it was kinda small turns out it’s kinda big. You can relax here if you don’t like huge city hustles. It’s like cooldown town
Posted: February 7, 2026It's a very small student town with a lot of old people. There are very rare cases of nuisance which are reported. The city closes down by 7-8PM and it's pretty quiet afterwards. The public transport system is pretty good. Till midnight, it's very regular. After midnight, there is a tram every hour. I enjoy living in this small, quaint town.
