About

Elbauenpark is one of Magdeburg’s most celebrated leisure and cultural destinations, offering a blend of nature, architecture, and entertainment. Created for the 1999 Federal Garden Exhibition, the park stretches across vast green landscapes along the Elbe River and has since become a year-round attraction for families, tourists, and locals alike. Its centerpiece is the Millennium Tower, a striking wooden structure that houses interactive exhibitions on science and technology, while panoramic views from its summit reveal the city and surrounding countryside. The park also features themed gardens, playgrounds, sports areas, and open-air stages that host concerts and festivals. Seasonal highlights include colorful flower displays and winter events that transform the grounds into a festive wonderland. With its combination of relaxation, education, and recreation, Elbauenpark embodies Magdeburg’s modern spirit, providing a space where history, innovation, and natural beauty come together in harmony.
