The Town of Towers on the Spree
Bautzen is a town of more than a thousand years on the Spree in Upper Lusatia, east of Dresden. Its old town stands on a rock above the river, and its many towers have given it the nickname Town of Towers. Bautzen is also the cultural centre of the Sorbs, a Slavic minority with their own language, so many signs are in both German and Sorbian.
St Peter's Cathedral has been shared by Catholics and Protestants since the 16th century. You can also visit the Ortenburg castle with the Sorbian Museum, the Old Waterworks tower and the Bautzen Memorial in a former Stasi prison. The town is famous for its mustard, too. A private transfer takes you straight to your hotel, with no changes on the way.
Worth Seeing
- St Peter's Cathedral, shared by two churches
- The Ortenburg and the Sorbian Museum
- The Old Waterworks tower above the Spree
- The Bautzen Memorial
- Sorbian Easter traditions in spring
Stopover Tip
Dresden, with the rebuilt Frauenkirche, the Zwinger palace and the Semperoper, lies on the way. Add it as a stop and your driver waits while you walk through the old town.
Fares, waiting and larger groups
We Offer Three Fares
Waiting Charge
If the driver waits for you or you book a multi-stop transfer, for example while you visit one city before continuing to another, a waiting charge is added to your fare.
Minivan Special Offer
Many airport taxis take only three passengers and may not fit large bags in a sedan. We take groups of up to four passengers with their luggage in a larger vehicle at a special price: choose “Minivan” (4 seats) when you book online. The offer does not apply to groups of five or more, who travel by minibus at the standard price.
