Introduction

Settled by the Slavs in the 6th century, Brandenburg is the oldest city in the eponymous state. It was the seat of the Margraviate of Brandenburg until the new Hohenzollern rulers moved their court to Berlin in 1417. Ravaged by WWII and mutilated by communist urban planning, the town is of limited touristic interest.
