Guben is a city in Brandenburg at the Lusatian Neisse. On Polish Side lies Gubin.
background
The traditional old hat town lies directly on the Neisse and is divided into two "halves". To the German city of Guben and the Polish city of Gubin. Due to the effects of the fighting at the end of World War II, over 85% of the city was very badly destroyed, so that unfortunately little remains of the city's incredibly beautiful charm. After the fall of the Wall, however, parts of the old town were restored.
He goes through Guben Oder-Neisse cycle path.
The "Plastinarium" by Prof. Gunther von Hagens has been a show workshop since the end of 2006. A good and cheap alternative for its changing worldwide "Body worlds" Exhibitions.
