The cultural landscape of Chemnitz is rich and complex. The Erzgebirge/Krušnohorí Montan region has been a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 2019, and the region has a significant story in industrialization that has contributed to the bloom of art and culture. The city, known for its industrial history-especially in the textile, mechanical engineering, railway and automotive industry-has a lot to offer with a wide range of architecture and top-class museums. All of this happens against the background that Chemnitz 2025 becomes of Europe, and thus an important focus is on the connections between history and the present.

The planned events begin on January 18, 2025 and include festivals, exhibitions, theater performances, performances, culinary experiences and workshops. Both local actors and international artists: inside are integrated into the action to shape a colorful program that promotes experiences and encounters.

A look into the future

A central place will be the newly renovated Hartmann factory, which should act as an international meeting point after its renovation. This development reflects the change that the city has experienced in the course of its eventful history.

The new cultural orientation, coupled with the commitment of the city administration and citizens, gives hope that Chemnitz will not only be worthy of the cultural capital, but will also blossom in the entire European context as a place for encounters and creative development.
