Sandersdorf-Brehna

Few towns in Saxony-Anhalt have a history as closely tied to the medieval Brehna convent as Sandersdorf-Brehna. The former convent at Brehna was founded in 1201, giving this part of the municipality a long ecclesiastical legacy. Today’s town was created in 2010 through the merger of Sandersdorf and Brehna with several neighbouring communities. It lies near the Fuhne River, between the urban centres of Leipzig and Halle, in a region shaped by the former lignite-mining landscape around Bitterfeld. Its mix of older settlement centres and modern transport links reflects central Germany beyond its major cities.
