UNESCO World Heritage in Saxony-Anhalt: Six amazing wonders in the heart of Germany

Saxony-Anhalt is a hub of world culture: six outstanding cultural monuments, valuable historic documents and the Middle Elbe Biosphere Reserve enjoy UNESCO protection here. This concentration of world heritage sites is unique and charming, as cultural delights and experiences in nature can be combined in an exciting way and within a short distance of each other.

Follow in the footsteps of the people whose powerful ideas changed the world, at the original sites of history. Only here can you experience sensational archaeological finds such as the Nebra Sky Disk, the splendour and charm of medieval Quedlinburg, probably the "most beautiful woman of the Middle Ages" Uta von Ballenstedt in Naumburg Cathedral, the inspiring story of Martin Luther at authentic sites of the Reformation, the grandeur of the princely Garden Kingdom of Dessau-Wörlitz and, not far away, the fascination of the Bauhaus movement first hand.


Come and be amazed, from the Harz to the Elbe!
