Our region. Steeped in history and charming.
Studying in the Border Triangle offers a number of other attractions in addition to its excellent academic environment. Beautiful and affordable apartments and dorms for everyone. Proximity to the state capital, Dresden. Prague, Wroclaw, and the Giant Mountains right on your doorstep. Student clubs, bars, nightclubs, and restaurants just around the corner. Perfect conditions for outdoor sports like mountain biking, rock climbing, and snowboarding. Hiking in the Zittau Mountains, bike tours along the Oder-Neisse Cycle Route, and exploring the cities.
Discovering Zittau means experiencing history. The historic city center, preserved almost in its entirety; the “Zittau Cultural Trail” leading past 52 landmarks; winding streets, narrow alleys, and spacious squares.
And for many, Görlitz is considered the most beautiful city in Germany anyway. It’s characterized by a unique architectural diversity, the best-preserved historic cityscape in all of Europe, and a total of 4,000 mostly good-condition historic buildings.
Furthermore, Zittau and Görlitz are excellent starting points for exploring the “Three-Country Corner”: Saxony, Silesia, and Bohemia. Here, everything is within easy reach.
