Shopping

This Blaudruck booth at the Christmas market on the Domplatz sells scarves, clothing, and other items made by a painstaking, 300-year-old "blueprint" process that uses blue dye made from woad or indigo.

If you're in Erfurt outside the Christmas season, you can book an inexpensive factory tour or a hands-on Blaudruck workshop in the Dürerhaus at Schlösserstrasse 38.
