Chroniques de Wolfsburg
Wolfsburg, the capital of the state of Lower Saxony, has a rich history dating back to the 13th century. Founded by Count Louis I of Brunswick-Lüneburg in 1248, the city's strategic location on the Aller River made it an important trading hub. Over the centuries, Wolfsburg transformed from a small market town to a major industrial centre, earning the nickname 'Autostadt' (car city) due to the Volkswagen Group's presence. Today, the city celebrates its industrial heritage while embracing modern art and culture, as seen in the Autostadt theme park and the Wolfsburg Museum of Art. Visitors can explore the city's unique blend of medieval and modern architecture, from the Baroque-style St. Peter's Church to the sleek, futuristic Volkswagen Factory.
