Community

Living in Erfurt means being part of an active community.

There are many associations where members can share a hobby, indulge in their interests or support charitable causes. Communal life in the city would be unimaginable without the hard work of these organisations.

How about getting involved yourself? Local politics offer another way to contribute new ideas for the future of our city.

Erfurt’s religious life, meanwhile, can be experienced in numerous congregations and faith communities, as well as in the cityscape itself.
