Merchants Bridge - Erfurt


In the town of Erfurt stands a simple bridge over the shallow Gera  river where the cobblestones that carry passengers and carts. What's special about this bridge, what in fact is one-of-a-kind in all of Germany is that the merchants stores are under the merchants houses, built up on the very bridge.

This town one of my favorites in all the travels. I'm going back at the end of the month and ride my bicycle all over, stopping at every place I missed the first time through. In this town I made up my mind that I was coming back to Germany and Lutherland and bringing some of the folks from Christ Lutheran Church in Stoughton, Wisconsin along with me.
