Dónde: Dessau-Wörlitz

In a day, Dessau and Wörlitz is done in a rush. With a night everything changes: you see the whole Bauhaus, with its museum, and you sleep inside Gropius's own building, in one of the studios where the students lived in 1926. The next day, Wörlitz park awaits you from first thing, without the train clock hanging over you.

## How do you get there?

On the RE7 regional train, direct from Berlin to Dessau Hauptbahnhof, about an hour and three quarters; in 2026 there are engineering works on the line until 12 December. The Bauhaus building is about 10 minutes' walk from the station. Bus 304 runs to Wörlitz every hour from Dessau bus station. By car, about 130 km on the A9, and 15 km more to Wörlitz.
