Do you know the craddle of German history?
The cultural city of Halle on the Saale is at the center of Saxony-Anhalt and with its amazing historic architecture it is home to the largest listed area in all of Germany’s major cities.
Here more than 1,200 years of German history spread along two river banks, as well as two fantastic castles, a university and classical music center await you in a town that was built spanning seven hills.
