"I lived and worked in Erfurt for five years. During this time I witnessed many of the changes brought about by Reunification. Some of these changes were good, some not so good. In general, however, I can say that I felt quite at home in Erfurt. It is one of the few larger German cities to have its historic "face" preserved almost intact, and for this reason the old city center exudes a very special atmosphere."
