Luther | Bauhaus | Garden Kingdom | Elbe

Nowhere else in Germany you will find such a density of UNESCO World Heritage sites as in the World Heritage Region. Within a radius of just 35 km, our region boasts four UNESCO World Heritage sites: the Luther Memorials in Wittenberg, the Bauhaus (including the masters’ houses and the Dessau-Törten housing estate with balcony access / "Laubenganghäuser") in Dessau, the Dessau-Wörlitz Garden Kingdom and the Biosphere Reserve Middle Elbe. All these places have one thing in common: they are unique in the world!

Luther | Bauhaus | Garden Kingdom

A marketing association for the region

The four UNESCO sites, which are unique in the world, have been united in the Luther | Bauhaus | Garden Kingdom | Elbe marketing association since 2004. This has created an incomparable tourist network that allows you to experience the region's wide range of offerings in a connected way: Follow in Luther's footsteps in the Reformation-influenced Lutherstadt Wittenberg, experience the perfect Bauhaus day in Dessau, enjoy an Italian gondola ride on Lake Wörlitz in the Garden Kingdom of Dessau-Wörlitz or observe the shy Elbe beaver undisturbed in its beaver lodge in the Central Elbe Biosphere Reserve. This and much more expects you in this fascinating region...
