Beautiful church with amazing architecture. Facing the cute little town of Erfurt. I had a great time touring around German town. Will definitely come again!

The St. Severin church, the lesser known cathedral of Erfurt. I can recommend visiting this church as well.

Very beautiful catholic church built right next to the main Erfurt cathedral. It is indeed gorgeous from inside and is not as crowded as the main cathedral. Definitely worth a visit!

Château du Lude

The Château du Lude is one of the many great châteaux of the Loire Valley in France. Le Lude is the most northerly château of the Loire Valley and one of the last important historic castles in France, still inhabited by the same family for the last 260 years. The château is testimony to four centuries of French architecture, as a stronghold transformed into an elegant house during the Renaissance and the 18th century. The monument is located in the valley of Le Loir. Its gardens have evolved throughout the centuries.
