A Stroll Through Erlangen
Anyone exploring Erlangen will encounter numerous works of art from a wide variety of eras in all corners of the city. Some of them are visible from afar due to their grandeur and size. Others, however, demand a closer look—and sometimes even require you to turn a corner or two.
More than 300 works of art
From Elias Räntz’s figures of gods on the roof of the Margrave’s Castle to artist Joachim Bandau’s “Machine Figures” on Campus South, from Heinrich Kirchner’s bronze sculptures in the sculpture garden on Burgberg to artist Franziska Uhl’s “White Angel” in Röthelheimpark—Erlangen and its surroundings boast, depending on the count, well over three hundred works of art in public spaces.
The Art Guide
The guide is an ongoing project currently focusing on art created after 1945. However, all relevant works of art will be gradually included.
