Whether on the autobahn or with a view of the weather - Thuringia is starting the autumn vacation calmly.
Erfurt - On the first weekend of the autumn holidays in Thuringia it remained calm both in the sky and on the streets.
After a somewhat cloudy Saturday, Sunday gave Thuringia a very beautiful - if a little fresher - autumn day, said a spokesman for the German Weather Service (DWD) on Sunday.
After stormy days, the week ended with "calm autumn weather".
It also remained quiet on the highways of the Free State.
A spokesman for the motorway police said on Sunday nothing was noticeable from holiday travel.
There were neither more traffic jams nor more accidents on the Thuringian motorways.
The ADAC had previously warned of autumn holiday traffic on the weekend.
Construction sites, full closures and holidays could cause bottlenecks on highways, it said.
The autumn holidays end in Berlin, Brandenburg, Hesse, North Rhine-Westphalia and Rhineland-Palatinate, and they begin in Thuringia.
Bremen, Lower Saxony, Saxony and Saarland start the second week.
