Cultural life in Saxony-Anhalt is as diverse as the people who live here. Most of the multicultural centers, associations, and communities are located in the main centers, Magdeburg and Halle. In addition, however, many municipalities and individual communities also offer opportunities to get involved in local history, sports, and cultural associations.  

Knowledge about the diverse culture of the people who live here together is part of the compulsory teaching and learning programs in schools and other educational institutions. Political education programs are also available to anyone interested.   

Highlights include annual events held as part of Intercultural Weeks and European Weeks. At these special events, you can learn, participate, engage in conversation, and experience culinary and musical diversity.  

We would like to present some of the offers to you. Please contact the relevant contact persons directly. You can also obtain information from our regional advisors, who will be happy to put you in touch.
