Location of Tiefthal in Erfurt

Tiefthal is a district of the Thuringian capital Erfurt .

geography

Tiefthal lies in the valley of the Weißbach, a tributary of the Gera , in the Thuringian Basin , which slowly rises to the west to the Fahner Höhe . Between Tiefthal and Schaderode in the west there is a wooded area and in the north the biotope of the threshold castle , otherwise the area is not forested and is used for agriculture. Other neighboring villages are Salomonsborn in the south, Gispersleben and Kühnhausen in the east, Elxleben in the north and Friedrichsdorf in the north-west. The distance to the city center of Erfurt in a south-westerly direction is about ten kilometers.

history

In 1104, Tiefthal was first mentioned in a document. In 1361 the village came under the control of the Mainz Lieutenancy in Erfurt, which used it as a kitchen village . Like Erfurt, Tiefthal belonged to Kurmainz ( Erfurt state ) until 1802 and then from 1815 to 1945 to Prussia . On July 1, 1994, the community of Tiefthal was dissolved and incorporated into the city of Erfurt as a district. Between 1993 and 1996 a new residential area with own homes was built on the outskirts, which ensured that the population doubled.
