The climate of Erfurt (Germany)
Erfurt is the capital of the federal state of Thuringia. The city
didn’t suffer a lot of damage during WWII and has one of the best
preserved city centers in Germany. The old city center is very cosy
with old timber frame houses and aristocratic residences. Several
beautiful churches can be admired here and Erfurt has the longest
bridge covered with half timbered houses in the world. Erfurt is
also known for its university. One of its most famous attendants was
Martin Luther. Erfurt has a maritime climate with small differences
in temperatures. During the summer only few warm days can be
recorded. During the winter subzero temperatures can be recorded.
However, longer periods with subzero temperatures are uncommon.
Precipitation figures are highest during spring and fall. Especially
in October and November precipitation figures are high.

More climate information
Climate figures are very useful but don’t present a general impression
of the climate and the eventual weather circumstances within a certain
period. The figures don’t always reflect the chance of wintry weather,
extreme heat or hurricanes. That is why we offer useful extra climate
information for each month of the year:
