Travel guide Saxony-Anhalt

Saxony-Anhalt is the heart of German history and culture, with five UNESCO World Heritage Sites waiting for visitors. The Lutheran cities of Wittenberg, Eisleben and Mansfeld are just as worth seeing as the Naumburg Cathedral, the Bauhaus in Dessau, the garden kingdom of Dessau-Wörlitz and the half-timbered town of Quedlinburg. In addition, there are the myth-filled Harz Mountains, the vast floodplains of the Elbe, the wine region along the Saale and Unstrut rivers, and the heathland landscapes in the east and north. Halle with the Nebra sky disk and the Hanseatic cities of Salzwedel, Stendal and Tangermünde are also worth a visit.
