Welcome to the Green Citadel - Friedensreich Hundertwassers’ “oasis for humanity and nature in a sea of rational houses”! This stunning location in the heart of Magdeburg, the capital city of the state Saxony-Anhalt, Germany. It offers not only individual living spaces but space to experience: attractive shop fronts, function rooms, a hotel, a theatre, offices, medical practices and a kindergarten are all under one very special roof. The tour of the building that includes access to a few select interior spaces provides the visitor with a broad understanding of the architectural ‘causes’ that were so important to the artist and that he integrated across his structures. From the highest tower of the Green Citadel you are going to enjoy the stunning view over Magdeburg!

A beautiful cathedral. Yes, plainer than many inside, but still beautiful - very detailed sculptures and carvings. Especially liked the 'weeping angels' - left hand side of the cathedral through a door. And don't miss the tombs of Otto the Great and his first wife Edith. Buy a leaflet for the cathedral (1 euro) so you know what you are looking at. Costs 2 euros to take photos but worth it. Then go to the Dommuseum Ottanianum which is next door to find out more.

This bridge is just amazing and it is definitelly a must see in the area. The way from the highway is well marked and there are two parking lots close to the bridge. You will find several information panels about the bridge history, its construction and interesting points in the neighborhood. It is not only the bridge and canal what is worth to see here. Nature was definitelly affected by the construction but it recovered quickly and is beautiful here. There are plenty of pedestrians and cycling trails under the bridge and also walk along Elbe is very enjoyable. Visiting here can easily become a day trip. There is also restaurant and little hotel at this place. Unfortunately closed due to Corona currently.
