About Zittau

In the Middle Ages Zittau was a flourishing trading town thanks to its location on the crossroads of several long-distance trading routes. A new chapter in its history opened on May 1, 2004, when the accession of Poland and the Czech Republic into the EU meant that Zittau went from being a remote backwater in Germany to a strategically located crossroads at the heart of Europe.
