Zwickau

Zwickau combines an industrial legacy with a compact historic centre in a way that reflects its position on the Zwickauer Mulde in southwestern Saxony. The river has long linked the town to the Mulde basin, while its streets and squares preserve churches, merchant houses and civic buildings from earlier centuries. Zwickau is closely associated with the German motor industry: August Horch established his first car company here in 1904, and the August Horch Museum traces that heritage at a former Audi factory site. Composer Robert Schumann was born in Zwickau in 1810; his birthplace is now a museum. Move on to other webcams in Saxony to compare river valleys and urban settings around Zwickau.
