PLAATSELIJKE OMGEVING

The Erlangen Rathaus (town hall) houses an impressive municipal museum. The extensive collection of documents and artifacts in this museum educates visitors about the ancient and modern history of the city of Erlangen, with special emphasis on how the arrival of Huguenot refugees in the 17th century influenced the development of the city.

Near the Schlossgarten is the Botanical Garden of Erlangen. The botanical garden has been at its current site since 1828 and now boasts over 4,000 plant species from all around the world. They’re maintained in greenhouses to mimic the native environment of the plants and it’s a really cool place for you to explore and learn about the different greens from mother earth.

Visit the Huguenot Church, one of the oldest baroque churches in Franconia. Stroll through the beautiful old town and relax in the nearby castle garden with its venerable orangery and view of the Margraves Palace. The world-famous Playmobil FunPark is only a few kilometres away from Erlangen and easy to reach, fun for the whole family is guaranteed. Or simply visit the nearby historical Nuremberg.

Bamberg lies on the western edge of a wide basin in the valley of the Regnitz, a river that flows seven kilometres downstream into the Main. The oldest part of this historic town is located on the high bank of the left arm of the river, as are the cathedral and the old Benedictine abbey of Michaelsberg. Enjoy the local recreation area Franconian Switzerland as well as the Franconian Lake District.
