After all this stress with shooting, fighting, climbing on skyscrapers etc., do you wanna do nothing more than a relaxing walk through a cozy little city?
Wurzen is a town in Saxony, in the east of Germany. It is situated on the river Mulde, here crossed by two bridges, 25 km east of Leipzig. It has a cathedral dating from the twelfth century, a castle, at one time a residence of the bishops of Meissen and later utilized as law courts, several schools, an agricultural college and as a police station including a prison.
Some places you`ll see in this video:
