The 87.05-sqm apartment on the 2nd floor is the largest in a multi-unit building at Hauptstr. 117 in Erlangen's old town. The entrance to the building and the north side of the apartment face north. Beyond the medieval northern city wall and the tree-lined historic "Saugraben", the north-facing windows offer views of the Burgberg, while on the south side of the apartment, above the charmingly dense inner courtyards and old-town rooftops, stands the tower of the Altstädter Church. Thus, despite its central location, the apartment is quiet.
The living area of 87.05 sqm is divided
on the north-facing side into - a spacious hallway, - a small bathroom with a bathtub and no window, - a small kitchen and - a larger room, each with windows offering unobstructed views of the Burgberg
and on the south-facing side into - a spacious bedroom and - a large living room with - an adjoining room separated by an open partition, each with large terrace doors opening onto the spacious, highly private rooftop terrace with views of old-town houses and rooftops and the church tower.
In the apartment's current layout, the room sizes increase in a fan-like arrangement towards the rooftop terrace, the source of light and views for the spacious bedroom and the large living room.
Other room layouts or uses are possible in terms of floor area, as the north-facing rooms have non-load-bearing or barely load-bearing walls that are part of the configurable special property. We can offer various suggestions on request.
The apartment is suitable for singles, couples, parents with a child or two-person shared households.
The apartment includes an underground parking space and a storage compartment in the attic on the same floor level. There are laundry and drying rooms in the basement and a bicycle storage room accessible at ground level for communal use.
Fittings and features, as described
We are offering the apartment in its unvarnished, bare-walled and clean condition. Wide-angle lenses, filters and AI were clearly avoided in the photos. We have likewise left out of the asking price the estimated costs we did not invest in cosmetic work such as filling, wallpapering, painting, sanding the floors and pressure-washing the terrace tiles. We think you will have your own ideas for this, and are happy to arrange longer, including repeat, viewings so you can develop them.
The apartment is technically ready for occupancy.
There are coin-operated washing machines in the basement for the residents. The laundry and drying rooms are exceptionally well maintained. The “basement room” for this apartment is an attic storage unit and is on the same floor. A lockable bicycle room is available at ground level.
The small print in normal-sized font:
There is no elevator. And, being a duplex, the underground parking space is unsuitable for some vehicle models.

Location details
The location of the apartment directly beside the medieval city wall in Erlangen’s Old Town, with southern views over the rooftops of the Old Town and northern views of the Burgberg, quiet and central, is unchangeable, exceptional and its most attractive feature. Within less than a 10-minute walk are all the amenities for everyday needs, as well as fine dining and popular student pubs, the City Museum, Kunstpalais, theatre, E-Werk cultural centre and other vibrant cultural venues, the Regnitz meadows—and the locally legendary “Berg” with its historic beer cellars and gardens. By bike or public transport, you can be “in the countryside” in 15 minutes. Healthcare is excellent, and the university hospital has an outstanding reputation. The nearest stop for Erlangen’s free public transport is less than 200 metres away; the main railway station is less than a kilometre away. Daycare centres, primary and secondary schools are also nearby and accessible without a car. By car, you can reach the A73 in less than a kilometre, which in turn provides quick access to junctions in every direction.
Following its renovation in 2024, further improvements were approved for the “Saugraben”, which lies on the north side of the apartment: motor vehicle traffic will be reduced, more trees will be planted alongside the existing trees, and paved areas will be surfaced with natural stone and unsealed—creating an attractive, green urban space beside the only remaining section of the 15th-century city wall, right at the apartment’s feet. (Search online for “Saugraben” or erlangen.de/aktuelles/noerdliche-stadtmauerstrasse; a direct link cannot be provided here.)
Erlangen itself is “small-town” cosmopolitan. This seeming contradiction stems from its Huguenot architecture and its position on the northern edge of the “metropolitan region”: heading north, you can leave it by bike and reach the scenic, gastronomically delightful rural Franconia, while heading south, excellent public transport and motorway connections let you experience the neighbouring cities of Fürth, with its more laid-back feel, and Nuremberg, with its big-city atmosphere. But above all, it stems from its population: unpretentious locals, multilingual, well-to-do Siemens employees and, above all, many young and some older university members from all disciplines coexist seamlessly in perfect harmony, because this mix has evolved organically. Equally delightfulContradictory: Erlangen is very lively and very safe.
