Wendish Museum
Exhibits on Wendish/Sorbian art, culture, music, and traditions.
Castle Church
The Protestant church "Schlosskirche" was built in 1419 and is next to the pedestrian zone in the city centre. It was rededicated to a synagogue in 2014.
Cloister Church
This Wendish church is attached to an old Franciscan monastery and is located along the north edge of the old city wall.
Church of St. Mary, Queen of Peace
Catholic church just south of the city centre.
This Protestant church is still largely intact from the middle ages, except for a new spire which was repaired a few years ago. With the new spire, it now stands as the tallest church in the Lower Lusatia region. The church spire is open to the public offering a scenic panorama of the whole city. Due to its excellent acoustics, this church is also a popular music venue.
Cottbus Castle
The former city castle (first mentioned in the 10th century!) is now the seat of the district courthouse, but is still beautiful in its own right, with its imposing 46-m spire springing from the peak of the castle hill. The castle grounds feature a waterfall on the back side of the hill.
