Welcome to Bautzen –

welcome to Bautzen – a lovely city in the east of Germany and in the heart of Europe, the Lausitz region. It’s a great place to live, easy to get to and everything is within walking distance. Living in Bautzen and working in Dresden? No problem! Dresden is less than 30 minutes away by car or train. In Bautzen you will find everything you need to live and work in comfort. The city offers a wide range of cultural activities and facilities, and we are regarded as one of the most hospitable, family-friendly cities in Germany. The Sorbs, an indigenous Slavic minority, are part of Bautzen’s rich diversity and we are proud of our German-Sorbian bilingualism. And of course there is much more. Take a look at the following pages and discover some of the diversity that makes Bautzen such a great place to live. Better still, come and see for yourself – we look forward to welcome you!
