About location

Built around a rural settlement in Lower Lusatia, Chosebuz grew into a village district of Cottbus. Set among fields and detached homes southeast of the city centre, it retains an open, low-density character that contrasts with central Cottbus. The district lies on the Lusatian plain, while the Spree runs through Cottbus. Chosebuz belongs to the traditional Lower Sorbian settlement area; its Lower Sorbian name, Chośebuz, reflects the bilingual heritage associated with Cottbus and the wider Lusatia region. Cottbus is one of Lower Lusatia’s principal urban centres and an important place for Lower Sorbian language and culture.

Prince Hermann von Pückler-Muskau shaped Branitz Park in the 19th century, creating an English-style landscape park around Branitz Castle, including its distinctive earth pyramids. St Nicholas Church and the Jugendstil State Theatre Cottbus are defining landmarks of the centre.

The Rhine, Danube and Elbe have long connected its regions, while the Black Forest and Bavarian Alps give the south a more dramatic relief. Berlin’s Brandenburg Gate and Museum Island reflect the capital’s role in German history and culture. Cologne Cathedral, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, rises above the Rhine, and the Bauhaus movement, founded in Weimar in 1919, transformed modern design far beyond Germany.
