The outstanding Austrian architect Friedensreich Hundertwasser left a deep architectural mark not only in Vienna and New Zealand where you can find most of his creations - Magdeburg also has one of his most magnificent buildings. This is about the Green Citadel (Hundertwassers Grüne Zitadelle von Magdeburg), which is notable for being built after the death of the "Biotech Guru", in 2005.

Like any other creation of the genius architect, the Green Citadel evokes associations with the fairy-tale world. The attraction got its name for its roof and walls entwined with greenery.

Previously, on the site of the present attraction (which is often called simply Hundertwasserhaus), there was a typical GDR residential building, but Rolf Opitz, the chairman of the city housing cooperative, had an idea how to ennoble his beloved city. In 1995, he asked the architect to help him make this idea come true. The building houses a theater, shops (including a bookstore with books about Hundertwasser), cafes, a hotel, and living accommodations.
