Waldhaus is ideally situated a short distance away from the historical city of Wittenberg. Located between Leipzig and Berlin, the city is famous as home to one of the world's oldest universities, founded in 1502. The city is even more important as the home of Martin Luther, who launched the Protestant Reformation there, and the city's connection with the reformer led to several of Wittenberg's historic sites being given UNESCO World Heritage status in 1996.
