The Name "Waidspeicher"
The Waidspeicher (woad storage, woad warehouse), built between 1540 and 1560, was originally a building for storing and processing woad (in German "Waid"), an unprepossessing plant from which in an extensive procedure the blue dye was obtained for textiles (blue-printing).
There were a lot of of such storages beause woad in the Middle Ages was the main source of affluence and wealth for the state capital Erfurt: woad was the raw material for making the blue dyes used in the textile industry until it was displaced by indigo.
From 1983 until 1986 the listed building was completely restored and turned into the steady home for the puppet theatre and the cabaret, both playing since 1979.
