Dessau: Wetterstation-Cam - Süd
Dessau-Rosslau is best known within Saxony-Anhalt for the Bauhaus Dessau, the school moved here from Weimar in 1925. Walter Gropius designed its landmark school building, completed in 1926, with an asymmetrical composition of glass curtain wall, workshops and a bridge-like administration wing. The city lies in the lowland formed by the Elbe and Mulde rivers, where floodplain woodlands remain central to the local setting. The Masters' Houses, built for Bauhaus teachers, add another essential chapter to its modernist legacy. Dessau-Rosslau also belongs to the Dessau-Wörlitz Garden Kingdom, a cultural landscape of parks, lakes and historic buildings shaped during the Enlightenment.

Germany stretches from the North Sea and Baltic Sea coasts to the Alps on its southern border, encompassing northern plains, river valleys and forested uplands. 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. Regional cooking, Christmas markets and brewing traditions bring further character to daily life. Browse additional webcams from the surrounding area to extend your view of Germany.
