The Anger Museum with its delightful variety of wood and stone sculptures is situated in the middle of the old part of the city at the crossroads made by the Bahnhofstrasse and the Anger. It was built between 1706 and 1712 as a packing and weighing station both for Philipp Wilhelm Reichsgraf von Boineburg, the governor of the city and for Archbishop Lothar Franz von Schönborn. It is one of the most important early 18th century buildings.

The museum was founded in 1886 to house the artworks that the city of Erfurt had inherited from one of its most famous sons, the Romantic painter Friedrich Nerly.

It was a great suite for everyone to meet and play cards. Lots of chairs so all 9 of us had a seat to play. It was alone on the floor, so it was quiet and I heard no noise (I cannot speak to the rooms on lower floors that the other members of my party had). The bed was soft and pillows were good. I had a great sleep. Bedroom was equipped with a fan which was definitely appreciated given the got quite warm during the stay. Bathroom was clean, well equipped, and had heated floors. Absolutely loved the bathroom. Kitchen was well equipped and we made use of the plates, cutlery, and cups. Did not use the element so I cannot speak to it.
