Germany 2019 Erfurt, Germany Archive
NMUN • Germany - Erfurt
At NMUN • Germany, delegates from colleges and universities all over the world focused on pressing global issues while appreciating how a modern European city thrives alongside the region’s medieval and Cold War history. Modern Erfurt boasts one of the country’s largest Christmas markets in a historic downtown where the conference took place amid the artisan chocolatiers and cobblestone streets. On cultural tours, delegates made visits to the Buchenwald concentration camp, Wartburg Castle (a UNESCO world heritage site where Luther translated the bible into German), and the Point Alpha Memorial (a Cold War U.S. observation post on the East German border, next to a portion of the Iron Curtain). We were honored to host Frank-Walter Steinmeier, the Federal President of the Federal Republic of Germany. He not only addressed the delegations but also visited with them in committee sessions. The conference was held in partnership with the University of Erfurt. Gehen wir! – Let’s go!
