Article of the Month Article of the month Naumburg Cathedral - west towers and cloister courtyard. Naumburg Cathedral, dedicated to St. Peter and St. Paul in the town of Naumburg, is an important Late Romanesque, Early and High Gothic building. Especially interesting are the donor figures and sculptures of the western rood screen and works of the Naumburg masters. The church was built next to an older church dedicated to the Blessed Virgin Mary when the episcopal seat moved from Zeitz to Naumburg in 1028. After the Reformation the first Protestant bishop was appointed in 1541. With the death of the last bishop, Julius von Pflug, in 1564 the bishopric was dissolved and went to the Electorate of Saxony; the church lost its function as an episcopal seat. However, it remains the church of the Evangelical cathedral parish. ↪ more Article management | Geography The federal state of Saxony-Anhalt in Germany Mountains: Harz - Brocken - List of mountains and hills of Saxony-Anhalt - List of mountains in the Harz Rivers: Aland - Aller - Bode - Dosse - Eine - Elbe - Hassel - Havel - Helme - Holtemme - Ilse - Jeetzel - Luppbode - Mulde - Ohre - Rappbode - Saale - Salzwedel Dumme - Schlenze - Schwarze Elster - Tanger - Unstrut - White Elster - Wipper - Wustrow Dumme - Zillierbach Important cities and towns: Magdeburg - Aschersleben - Bernburg (Saale) - Bitterfeld-Wolfen - Blankenburg (Harz) - Burg - Calbe (Saale) - Dessau-Roßlau - Eisleben - Freyburg (Unstrut) - Gardelegen - Genthin - Gernrode - Halberstadt - Haldensleben - Halle (Saale) - Havelberg - Hettstedt - Jessen (Elster) - Kalbe (Milde) - Klötze - Köthen (Anhalt) - Leuna - Merseburg - Naumburg (Saale) - Oebisfelde - Oschersleben (Bode) - Quedlinburg - Salzwedel - Sangerhausen - Schönebeck (Elbe) - Staßfurt - Stendal - Tangerhütte - Tangermünde - Thale - Weißenfels - Wernigerode - Wittenberg - Zeitz - Zerbst/Anhalt Regions: Altmark - Harz - Saale-Unstrut Region Landscapes: Dessau-Wörlitz Garden Realm - Eastphalia - Fläming - Geisel valley - Harz Foreland - Magdeburg Börde Districts and independent towns: Anhalt-Bitterfeld - Altmarkkreis Salzwedel - Börde - Burgenlandkreis - Dessau-Roßlau - Harz - Halle (Saale) - Jerichower Land - Magdeburg - Mansfeld-Südharz - Saalekreis - Salzlandkreis - Stendal - Wittenberg History Nebra sky disc History: Nebra sky disc - Thietmar of Merseburg - Eike von Repgow - Province of Saxony - Anhalt - Province of Halle - Province of Magdeburg - Albert the Bear - Cardinal Albert - Reformation - Ascania - Fruitbearing Society Historic people: Henry the Fowler - Otto I - Otto II - Otto III - Margrave of Gero - Leopold III Frederick Franz - Louis I, Prince of Anhalt-Köthen - Maria of Masovia - Samuel Hahnemann - Otto von Guericke World Heritage Sites: Castle and Old Town of Quedlinburg - Luther sites in Eisleben and Wittenberg - Dessau-Wörlitz Garden Realm - Bauhaus Dessau Transport, Tourism and Media Aqueduct near Magdeburg Transport: America Line - Elbe - Elbe–Havel Canal - Halberstadt–Blankenburg railway - Halle–Cottbus railway - Havel - Leipzig/Halle Airport - Magdeburg S-Bahn - Magdeburg Water Bridge - Mittelland Canal - Quedlinburg station - Stendal Central Station - Tangermünde station - Uelzen station - Wittenberge station Tourism: Romanesque Road - Arendsee - Via Regia Media: MDR - Sputnik Personlities Lucas Cranach d.
