Magdeburg is the capital city of the Bundesland of Saxony-Anhalt, Germany with a population of 228.800. Magdeburg used to be one of the most important medieval cities of Europe.

New shopping malls and other attractions have changed the cityscape enormously. Today Magdeburg has the largest retail area in relation to its overall area of whole Germany. Magdeburg is home of two of Germany's top ranking universities, which make it attractive to college students from all over Europe. Other scientific insitutions, like the Max-Planck-Insitut, and one of the largest sites of the Fraunhofer Institut, make Magdeburg an important city for international research.
