Chemnitz, Industrial metropolis in Saxony, Germany
Located between Leipzig and Dresden, Chemnitz encompasses 39 districts with altitudes ranging from 298 to 302 meters above sea level.
The city changed its name from Karl-Marx-Stadt to Chemnitz in 1990 after German reunification through a local referendum of residents.
The selection of Chemnitz as European Capital of Culture 2025 brings forward programs that connect manufacturing traditions with contemporary art expressions.

The 13-meter-tall Karl Marx monument remains the second largest bust in the world, representing the industrial heritage of this Saxon metropolis.
