Restoration in Saxony

In the east of the Federal Republic of Germany, Saxony borders on its European neighbours, the Czech Republic and Poland. In Saxony many buildings bear witness to the long history of this region - the collegiate church in Wechselburg, the cathedral and Albrechtsburg in Meißen, the Torgau castle Hartenfels or Pillnitz castle and the Zwinger in Dresden.

The Fürst-Pückler-Park in Bad Muskau belongs to the UNESCO World Heritage List. Three Saxon regions are waiting to be included in the World Heritage List: the Montan region Erzgebirge, the city of Meißen and the city of Görlitz. In 2010, the Dresden Elbe Valley lost its status as a world cultural heritage site with the construction of the Waldschlößchenbrücke bridge.

There are many important collections in Saxony - representative of the broad spectrum of Saxon museums are the Dresden State Art Collections and the Hygiene Museum, Grassi Museum in Leipzig or the art collections in Chemnitz.
