Welcome to the UNESCO-World Heritage Site of Naumburg Cathedral The Cathedral of St Peter and St Paul in Naumburg is one of Europe’s most important cultural monuments from the high middle ages and is a major visitor attraction on the “Romanesque Route”. One of the cathedral’s most impressive features are the twin choir screens which separate the choirs from the nave. It is the only church in the world to contain two choir screens from the high medieval period! The West Choir with its choir screen and 12 statues depicting the church’s donors, which date back to the mid-thirteenth century, forms the cathedral’s biggest attraction. Crafted by the Naumburg Master, the statue known as Uta is particularly special and is said to depict the “most beautiful woman of the middle ages”.

Don't misunderstand! It's the city, the old city of Naumburg I'm thinking about! - and I'm thinking about all this beautiful surroundings , like: Bad Sulza, Bad Kösen, Saaleck, Pforta and Freyburg - I love all this places - and it's very easy to spend a fortnight for holidays in this area! And now, for the first time I met " Uta" - my first visit of Naumburg cathedral innside! - my last visit was only outside! - and I was only 5 years old of age. - but I still remember! :) Ok, today it was easy, going up to the Dom and city center by tram nr 4 from the railway station. When arriving the Dom, I was annoyed about all this business for tickets, - do this, don't do that!! pay extra for making pics and so on. Hello Naumburg - I hope you know what you are doing! You have the Dom and Uta - and actually for this moment: "that's it"!! - remember this! - a lot has to be done for the future for catching tourists to stay a night or 2! Don't price you out of business! Back to the Dom and Uta - Hello; - everybody, all of you have to go inside and looking for that beautiful face, and looking in the eyes of Uta. Then the most of you will understand my feelings. :) therefor; Thank you so much to this "unknown Master of Naumburg" for very good and unforgettable work!

It is a beautiful place and takes you back to the 1920s. We made a guided tour which we absolut recommend as you get more insight and also visit rooms which are closed to public

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!
