The Inspiring Six
UNESCO World Heritage 
Saxony-Anhalt

There are places and objects that are so historically significant, unique in the world and so valuable to humanity that UNESCO has decided to place them under its special protection. In Saxony-Anhalt, such astonishing cultural treasures can be experienced in a unique density.

As different as the sites in Naumburg, Dessau-Roßlau, Quedlinburg, Halle (Saale), Oranienbaum-Wörlitz, Eisleben and Wittenberg are – they are united by an extraordinary universal value that makes them UNESCO World Heritage Sites.
