Why the weather in Erfurt is so special

Erfurt lies in the middle of the Thuringian Basin. Erfurt's climate is so special that gardening and agriculture are ideal here. On the one hand, it is because the Thuringian Forest lies like a protective belt far to the south and west of the city. The clouds that come with the low pressure areas from mostly westerly directions are already losing most of their rain load on the flanks of the Thuringian Forest. That's why there is often the proverbial fog in Oberhof when the sun shines over the cathedral square.

On the other hand, the location in the lowlands of the Gera ensures good protection from strong and cold winds. It is not for nothing that you first have to drive or walk downhill from all directions in order to approach the central parts of the city of Erfurt.
