Zwickau is an important Saxonian metropolis for art and science. Historically rich from its cloth making and silver mining industries, the city today is especially known for its Old Town district of yore. Numerous art nouveau and Gründerzeit (last decade of the 19th century) buildings have been painstakingly restored.

Rustic inns and first-class hotels, extending comfort and relaxation, invite you to stop and relax for a while. Zwickau’s international reputation is based on Robert Schumann and August Horch. They make the city particularly attractive to those with interests in music as well as automobiles.
