Zittau (30.000 inhabitants) lies in the south east of Germany, in the Free State of Saxony, close to the border triangle between Germany, Poland, and the Czech Republic.
After years of careful reconstruction, the inner city of Zittau once again shows its original beauty with many historic buildings out of different periods of European architecture. Coming through the two world wars completely undamaged, Zittau surprises first time visitors with a certain Mediterranean atmosphere. Because of it´s strategic border triangle position in the heart of Europe, Zittau´s affluence was built on trade. For centuries, Zittau was one of the most important cities in Bohemia. Today, apart from trade and other commercial activities, tourism is picking up fast as Zittau´s major growth sector. The natural beauty of the surrounding countryside and the nearby mountains ( providing skiing facilities and several spas, with Oybin and Jonsdorf being the two most charming ), are popular tourist destinations all year round. Zittau´s climate is very sunny. Weekenders from the border countries adore shopping in the lovely historic center. Another contributor to Zittau´s international flair are the roughly 4.000 enrolled Students at Zittau´s international university, where classes are held in 4 languages. Because of their Bohemian background, people in Zittau are very relaxed and hospitable. Zittau offers a well diversified range of cultural attractions like historic sites, museums, the outstanding Gerhart Hauptmann theatre, cinemas, outdoor music and theatre festivals, a zoo etc. Two of the most beautiful major European cities (and their international airports), Prague and Dresden, can be reached by car or train within an hour.
