Haus Dacheröden

Haus Dacheröden is a cultural center in central Erfurt that combines architectural elements from different periods within its structure. The Renaissance facade with its decorated portal from 1557 defines the building, which spans multiple floors and contains various rooms for events.

Archaeological studies uncovered medieval building elements from around 1300 beneath the Renaissance layer, proving that construction at this site dates back to early centuries. This makes it one of the oldest documented structures on Erfurt's Anger street.

The building hosts literature events, concerts, exhibitions, and workshops organized by the Erfurter Herbstlese since 2017. Visitors experience an active program that brings art and culture to life within these historic rooms.

The building contains multiple halls and salons suited for various events, with an outdoor stage in the courtyard operating from May through September. Visitors should check the current program before visiting to find the right event for their interests.

Caroline von Dacheröden and Wilhelm von Humboldt resided here, while Johann Wolfgang von Goethe visited frequently during the late 18th century. This connection to major figures of that era gives the place a special historical standing among Erfurt's buildings.
