Wilde Gera (Erfurt)

Wilde Gera is the name for a section of the river Gera in the Erfurt city.

They originally branched off as a separate arm in the quarter from Brühl Walk stream of Gera and resulted in a curve east past the town center. She ran as a ditch in front of the inner wall of the fortification. In the area of ​​Venice in the north of the old town it was united with the broad stream. 1898, the Wilde Gera was filled by the expansion of the flood trench. On it was placed on the first ring road Erfurt, today Yuri Gagarin -Ring.

Today, a 610 meter long section of Gera has this name. It starts in Venice at the confluence of the wide stream after an island and runs slightly curved at the north-north- westerly direction through a residential area. At the eastern end of the Waldemarstraße the Wilde Gera combined with the ending there Flutgraben and flows as "normal" Gera on.
