Welcome to Bautzen, a charming place with a well-preserved medieval town center, always worth a visit! Rising high above the Spree River, with no fewer than 17 towers and much of the town fortification still around the Old Town, Bautzen hasn't changed much for centuries. Come and explore the heart of the old town and see St. Peterâs Cathedral, the oldest and largest church in Germany that is both Catholic and Evangelical, the hilltop Ortenburg Fortress which the medieval lords called home, and where we find the late-Gothic iconic Matthias Tower.
While its old town is now ringed by a fairly unremarkable modern city, Bautzen is actually known across Germany for three things: its famous mustard, its two infamous prisons, and its Slavic-speaking Sorbs, a protected ethnic minority group within Germany.
