So what does that mean? The capital city of the German Land of Saxony-Anhalt was given this nickname in commemoration of the two famous Ottos who had a great impact on its history. Emperor Otto the Great transformed Magdeburg into a metropolis in the early Middle Ages and Otto von Guericke fascinated the world with his hemispheres experiments. The name “City of Otto” also refers to more than just these two individuals. It is an attitude to life, a pragmatic approach and a sense of hospitality. Come and experience Otto for yourself! Welcome to Magdeburg! 4 Magdeburg, the City of Otto, is now over 1200 years old! Nowadays, the face of the city is not only characterised by impressive historic medieval buildings, quaint Baroque facades and monumental Gründerzeit districts, but also by its modern architecture, for example an architectural masterpiece by Friedensreich Hundertwasser: THE GREEN CITADEL OF MAGDEBURG. 5 6 7 Magdeburg is situated on the banks of the river Elbe and offers numerous activities on and around the water! The Elbe Cycle Route leads cyclists directly through the city and from the banks of the river Elbe, the “Weiße Flotte” runs boat trips to the Waterway Junction or further into the idyllic Elbe landscape. Extensive parks can also be found close to the river and invite visitors to enjoy walks and strolls to the unspoilt Elbe floodplains. When you return from your walk, an abundance of restaurants and cafés with a view over the river will be waiting to greet you! 8 Come to Magdeburg and enjoy a wonderful experience, for example at the marvellous exhibitions in the Cultural History Museum, which are bound to leave a lasting impression. You can also visit the Opera House and Theatre to enjoy culture at its very best or be entertained by the Magdeburg Puppet Theatre and its international puppetry and marionette shows. In the summer months, you can make the most of the interesting entertainment and unique atmosphere of the Magdeburg Open-Air Summer. On top of all this, Magdeburg has even more to offer: shopping fun, club and bars, spa experiences ... the list goes on and on! 9 ”Don Quixotte“ by Magdeburg Theatre 10 Historical Magdeburg Residents Historical Magdeburg Residents Emperor Otto the Great * 23rd November 912 in Memleben † 7th May 973 in Memleben Otto von Guericke * 20th November 1602 in Magdeburg † 11th May 1686 in Hamburg Georg Philipp Telemann * 14th March 1681 in Magdeburg † 25th June 1767 in Hamburg Martin Luther * 10th November 1483 in Eisleben † 18th February 1546 in Eisleben Emperor Otto the Great‘s heart truly belonged to Magdeburg. He gave the city a grand cathedral, the predecessor to the current Magdeburg Cathedral, and transformed Magdeburg into the first ‘German’ capital city and the centre of power of his Holy Roman Empire. Otto the First was the most powerful ruler in central Europe in the 10th century. Magdeburg, Otto‘s favourite residence, flourished under his reign and he presented the city to his first wife Edith as a morning gift at their wedding. Otto acquired the epithet “the Great” when he defeated the Magyars in the famous Battle of Lechfeld in 955. In 962, he travelled together with his wife Adelaide to Rome, where he became the first King to be crowned Emperor. The imperial couple returned to Magdeburg in 972 and a procession to the cathedral was held for them on Palm Sunday in 973. Otto died in Memleben shortly after this event. In accordance with old tradition, his heart was buried at his place of death in Memleben and his other remains were laid to rest in a tomb in Magdeburg Cathedral. Following the Thirty Years’ War, Lord Mayor Otto von Guericke played a significant role in the development of the city of Magdeburg. Alongside his role as Mayor, von Guericke was also a pioneer and founding father of scientific phenomena and fields of work such as static electricity and meteorology. He left his mark on history as the ‘great son of the city’, a diplomat and scientist who was, quite simply, a universal genius. Otto von Guericke, a trained jurist, dedicated his entire life and work to his hometown of Magdeburg, where he was born and buried. In addition to his political activities, von Guericke also dedicated a lot of his time to his scientific research. One of his most famous experiments, following his invention of the vacuum pump in around 1650, was the Magdeburg hemispheres experiment. In fact, many aspects of public life in the city are still closely associated with Otto von Guericke nowadays. The university was named after him, the Otto von Guericke Society cultivates his legacy in the Guericke Zentrum in the Lukasklause and he has had his own monument in front of the Town Hall since 1907. To this day, Georg Philipp Telemann is the most productive composer in musical history. He left behind an extensive and varied collection of work including more than fifty operas and hundreds of instrumental compositions. Alongside Johann Sebastian Bach and George Frideric Handel, Telemann was one of the prolific composers in the era of enlightenment in Germany and had a significant influence on German Baroque music. He came from a well-educated family from the city of Magdeburg, where he grew up and attended the Cathedral School. Even as a young boy, Telemann learned to play a multitude of instruments and when he was ten years old, he began to compose his first pieces. He then completed his musical education in 1697 before achieving a degree of popularity both in Germany and abroad that no composer had ever seen before and becoming one of the most diverse personalities in musical history. The International Telemann Society is based in his city of birth, Magdeburg. Every year, the Society either celebrates the Magdeburg Telemann Festival or organises the International Telemann Competition, in which it presents the city’s Telemann Award for outstanding achievements in the interpretation, commemoration and research of the composer’s life and work. The city has been home to a statue of Georg Philipp Telemann since 1981. Martin Luther is one of the outstanding personalities of German history, boasting international standing as the reformer and founder of German Protestantism. As an Augustine monk, he became a Theologian and Professor and initially tried to achieve necessary reforms without splitting the church. By nailing his theses to the door of Wittenberg Castle Church in 1517, however, he started the reformation and began his fight against the abuse of power and moral decline of the Church, as well as his fight for religious freedom. As a young student, Martin Luther often stayed in Magdeburg and in 1516, he visited the Augustine monastery, at which he spent more time a year later. Luther gave several sermons in the monastery church (which became what is now known as the Walloon Church in 1694) and in St John’s Church in the year 1524. By doing so, he actively contributed to guiding the reformation in the city of Magdeburg along more bourgeois and moderate lines. The city was ultimately considered to be a stronghold of German Protestantism. In 1886, a monument was erected in St John’s Church as a reminder of Luther’s visits to Magdeburg. www.magdeburg-tourist.de 11 otto on tour Come and enjoy a guided tour!
