Bitterfeld-Wolfen is a city in Saxony-Anhalt known for its industrial history. However, the city also has many attractions worth visiting. The
Bitterfeld-Wolfen town hall was built between 1936 and 1939 as part of the Agfa works. After the war, the film factory became Soviet property before a state-owned enterprise (VEB) was founded in 1954. With the fall of the Berlin Wall, the film factory lost its importance and the building fell into disrepair. It was not until the founding of the city of
Bitterfeld-Wolfen that there was a chance for revival.
The Municipal Cultural Center offers a wide range of different genres. Regular concerts, theater performances, and exhibitions take place here.
