About 15,000 locals live in Genthin and the surrounding villages of Parchen, Hüttermühle, Fienerode, Wiechenberg, Hagen and Mützel.

The Genthin water tower and the nostalgic Persiluhr clock are our most famous sights.

Those in search of stunning panoramic views should climb the 232 stairs of the 48m-high water tower offering great vistas of the Jerichower Land area rich in both water and woodlands.

A whole variety of forests, meadows and picturesque areas along the riverbanks make our region unique. Hiking and cycling trails as well as outings by boat, on horseback, in a horse-drawn coach or by car will turn your stay into an unforgettable one.
