Erfurt

On a cheap car holiday in Germany, a must is to visit Thuringia's capital, Erfurt, a delightful mix of squares, old alleyways, small church towers and idyllic riverside areas. The city was home to the famous University of Erfurt in the 1300s, where Martin Luther was the most famous student. Today you can still feel the medieval roots of the city and there is a unique atmosphere among the old houses. Book a cheap self-drive holiday with Risskov and discover the cosy city. Among the main sights are the market square with the city's cathedral, the medieval bridge Krämerbrücke and the old Augustinian monastery.
