2. Devil’s Bridge<\/h2>\n
Rakotzbr\u00fccke is the bridge’s official name, but it is also known as Devil’s Bridge. You can see why this bridge is so good in photos. The water reflects the semi-circle formed by the bridge to become a perfect circle. The bridge was constructed in 1865 and can be found in the Azalea and Rhododendron Park Kromlau in the region of Upper Lusatia.<\/p>\n

5. Moritzburg Castle<\/h2>\n
This majestic hunting castle was built on a large island in the middle of the lake by the town of Moritzburg. This large castle is one of the most impressive Baroque constructions in Saxony.

6. G\u00f6ltzsch Viaduct: the largest brick-built bridge in the world<\/h2>\n
A bridge was needed over River G\u00f6ltzsch for the railway between Leipzig and Nuerenburg. Engineer Schubert, who constructed the first German steam locomotive, created a brick design. When the bridge was finished in 1851, they had used no fewer than 26 million bricks! In the year 2022, the G\u00f6ltzsch Viaduct is no longer the highest, but still the largest brick-built bridge in the world.<\/p>\n

7. Monument to the Battle of the Nations in Leipzig<\/h2>\n
The Battle of Waterloo was small compared to the Battle of the Nations in Leipzig. Here, Napoleon was defeated for the first time on the return journey to Russia. Almost 600,000 soldiers fought it out in 1813 and until the First World War, it was the largest battle in history. The enormous Monument to the Battle of the Nations (in German: \u2018V\u00f6lkerenschlachtdenkmal\u2019) was erected in 1913 on the spot where Napoleon’s field tent stood. It houses an exhibition of the battle. The 91m-high visitors’ platform offers a stunning view over Leipzig and surrounding area.<\/p>\n

8. Pfunds Dairy in Dresden<\/h2>\n
Can a milk shop be a tourist attraction? It certainly can. You will not believe your eyes in Pfunds Dairy. When Dresden underwent rapid growth during the industrial revolution, it became increasingly difficult to supply all residents with fresh milk. In 1879, dairy farmer Paul Pfund came up with the idea of selling milk in the middle of Dresden. That which started as a small-scale shop grew into a veritable diary imperium. The beautiful headquarters was built in Dresden-Neustadt in 1891. Like a shop from a picture book, this building was elaborately decorated with tiles made by artists from Dresden. Since 1998, the \u2018Pfunds Molkerei\u2019 has been in the German Guinness Book of Records as the most beautiful dairy shop on earth.<\/p>\n

9. Film city of \u2018G\u00f6rliwood\u2019<\/h2>\n
Much of the multiple Oscar winning film \u2018The Grand Budapest Hotel\u2019 was filmed in the Saxon G\u00f6rlitz. With its 3,000 monumental buildings, the town of G\u00f6rlitz on the River Neisse is one of the best preserved towns in Germany. As a result, G\u00f6rlitz often features in TV and film productions. Hollywood producers also find their way to G\u00f6rlitz and the town has even been nicknamed \u2018G\u00f6rliwood\u2019.<\/p>\n
