Details About Erlangen

Erlangen is situated in the northern part of the south German "Land" of Bavaria in the area known as Franconia (Franken in German.) The city of Erlangen has a population of just over 100,000 and therefore falls just within the German legal definition of a "city". Certainly in Britain, cities are much larger than this and a visitor from the UK would probably class Erlangen as a medium-sized town - which makes it much easier to get to know.
