Benedict's Square in Erfurt is a historic square located at the western entrance to the Merchants' Bridge (Krämerbrücke) in the Old Town. It was first mentioned in 1510 under the name "Für der Krämerbrucken" (For the Merchants' Bridge). Later, in 1817, it was renamed "Vor der Krämerbrücke" (Before the Merchants' Bridge). Finally, in 1831, the square was named Benedict's Square in remembrance of the Benedictine Church that once stood there. This renaming occurred after the church was sold and subsequently demolished in 1809/1810 by the French General Domains Director Gentil. Several streets and squares converge at Benedict's Square, including Michaelisstraße, Kreuzgasse, the Merchants' Bridge, the Town Hall Bridge, and the Fish Market. https://www.die-kraemerbruecke.de/benediktsplatz-erfurt/

It was built in 1932 with the aim of damming the flood channel to a depth of two meters over a length of approximately 800 meters, in order to allow boat traffic for the residents of Erfurt. https://www.erfurt.de/ef/de/erleben/sehenswertes/parks/108225.html

The new fish ladder ensures that the Gera River is now passable for fish upstream, making the weir more ecologically permeable and promoting biodiversity. It is a basin fish ladder: several basins arranged in series with small differences in height, connected by loopholes or channels. This design allows fish to ascend and descend effectively through a controlled flow. Approximately 160 meters of the fish ladder are publicly published. The previous fish ladder at the same location was considered virtually ineffective in specialist literature; the new fish ladder replaces this deficient structure.
