Ermstedt is a district of the city of Erfurt in Thuringia . It is the westernmost district and has been part of the state capital since 1994.

geography

Ermstedt is located on the Alacher Höhe , a plateau in the Thuringian Basin about 290 meters above sea level. The Nesse flows south of the village . The district is largely unforested and is subject to intensive agricultural use. The village itself is still characterized by its historic farmsteads. In the 1990s, as part of the wave of suburbanization in East Germany, a new single-family housing estate was built on the eastern outskirts. Neighboring places are Zimmersupra in the north, Gottstedt in the east, Frienstedt in the southeast, Gamstädt in the south and Nottleben in the west. It is ten kilometers to downtown Erfurt and about 14 kilometers to Gotha .

history

At the beginning of the 9th century, Ermstedt was first mentioned in a list of the goods lent by Archbishop Lullus († 786) of Mainz to the monastery of Hersfeld von Free as an Ermenstat . Ermstedt was closely connected to Erfurt for a long time and was part of the territory of the city of Erfurt . With this it came after the dissolution of Kurmainz in 1802 to Prussia , 1807 to the Principality of Erfurt and in 1816 to the Prussian district of Erfurt . On July 1, 1950 Gottstedt was incorporated into Ermstedt. Since 1994, both villages have belonged to the city of Erfurt as separate districts.
