Must-sees
Berlin Wall
The best-preserved section of the Berlin Wall has been transformed into the East Side Gallery by a host of artists. Admire the world’s largest open-air mural collection on the world’s most famous wall.
Wittenberg words
In 1517, Martin Luther, Wittenberg’s most famous son, started the
Protestant Reformation when he nailed his 95 Theses to the door of Castle
Church. Read the words that changed the course of European history.
Meissen
This pretty-as-a-picture town is famous for its porcelain factory, where you can watch the artists at their meticulous work. Every piece of ‘white gold’ is still made by hand, shaped from local kaolin clay.
Delightful Dresden The ‘Florence of the Elbe’ has been
restored to its former splendour, and is awash with spires, towers and domes. See why the city that inspired Bach, Canaletto, Goethe and Wagner is again attracting admirers.
Saxon Switzerland
Named by two homesick 18th-century Swiss painters who were reminded of the beauty of their homeland by the stunning views, Saxon Switzerland is Germany’s most spectacular national park. Camera at the ready.
Prague time
A time-honoured tradition is Prague’s Astronomical Clock in the Old
Town Square. Rich in symbolism, its automated figures appear every hour, followed by the 12 Apostles parading past the windows above the clock.
