GERMANY - Dresden - Leipzig - Magdeburg
Magdeburg is the capital of the German state of Saxony-Anhalt and is located on the Elbe River. Magdeburg has been destroyed twice in its history. The Catholic League sacked Magdeburg in 1631 and the Allies bombed the city in 1945, destroying much of it.
Leipzig is an art lover's paradise, thanks to its extensive range of galleries, museums, and concert halls. Take a step back into history by exploring Romanesque churches, Art Nouveau buildings, and 16th century cellars.
Dresden was known as the Jewel Box, because of its baroque and rococo city centre. The bombing during World War II destroyed the entire city centre. Today, Dresden has regained its superb monuments after years of work.
The 3 cities were located in the area of the former East Germany.
