Blossoming Splendor and Spring Awakening in Saxony-Anhalt

The Elbauenpark in Magdeburg in spring

Spring in Saxony-Anhalt is a colorful invitation: Nature awakens, the parks and gardens fill with color and show their blossoms, birds return and the days get longer. At the same time, numerous events and offers in spring provide good reasons to get out and about - alone, with friends or family. Cycle paths and hiking trails invite you to explore.

Tips and excursions for spring

A classic at the start of the season. Castles, parks and architecture open their doors for a colorful program with a parade, market, historical tours and plenty of springtime atmosphere.

Around Easter, you will find many special spring programs in the Garden Dreams parks - such as guided tours, concerts, markets or Easter activities such as treasure hunts for children.

Tours through the Saale-Unstrut cultural landscape or through forests and meadows are particularly appealing when spring snowflakes, winter aconites and orchids are in bloom. Perfect if you want to combine spring, exercise and scenery.

For example in Köthen or at historic estates such as Gut Zichtau. Here you can discover regional products, handicrafts and spring decorations. The Gartenträume fair attracts visitors to Hundisburg Castle and its beautiful park every year in April.

From April, the Elbauenpark in Magdeburg offers large flower and plant displays, themed gardens and leisure activities in the countryside - ideal for relaxing afternoons and family time.

Discover gardens and parks

Discover the green oases of Saxony-Anhalt! From magnificent palace parks to idyllic landscaped gardens - a fascinating mix of culture, nature and history awaits you here. The Garden Kingdom of Dessau-Wörlitz, a UNESCO World Heritage Site and the heart of garden art, invites you to immerse yourself in a world where art, architecture and nature merge perfectly. Stroll through flowering avenues, over curved bridges and past picturesque lakes - a place that inspires and slows you down. You will also find enchanting parks away from the World Heritage Site, for example around the castles in Ballenstedt, Blankenburg or Mosigkau, as well as green retreats in Magdeburg or Halle.
