A warm welcome to Magdeburg, the green cathedral city at the River Elbe!
First mentioned in 805 AD, Magdeburg boasts a varied, interesting cultural history, making it one of the country’s most fascinating cities.
One of the city’s most famous attractions is the Magdeburg Dome. It was the first dome constructed in Gothic style in Germany and today buries the remains of King Otto the Great. The city’s oldest building is the Roman Unser Lieber Frauen monastery. New attractions include the Millenium tower, which features an interactive exhibition, and the Magdeburg “Wasserstrassenkreuz”, which boasts the world’s longest canal bridge. Maybe most famous of all is the Green Citadel, the last building to be designed by the legendary architect Friedensreich Hundertwasser-
Magdeburg, however, is also one of Europe’s greenest cities, with ist large idyllic parks and a unique landscape along the river banks.
