The tour begins at Erfurt's Fishmarket.
Listen to the stories from old Erfurt:
About the rebellious student Martin L., who never missed an opportunity to put his foot in his mouth, about the axe-swinging apostle Boniface, about Puff beans, about the master of arithmetic Adam Ries and the roguish jester Eulenspiegel, about the “eaten mayor” or about Doctor Faust: in the darkness of the night, you will experience how he conjured up spirits…
You will enjoy a snack provided by the city employee:
Bridge truffles made from Peru jungle chocolate from the Goldhelm chocolate manufactory, served with a local clear 40% herbal liqueur.

He tells the storey, but here the city itself tells the storey, the silence and the darkness that is descending more and more… It is as if history itself is speaking from the darkness, as if it is telling what no guide can tell: the mood, the atmosphere… This night reinforces my conviction: This is one of the most beautiful German cities of all… "
