Bad Düben is famous as a spa town. Here you can find rest, health and relaxation in the state-approved mud spa. The Luther Trail leads through the wonderful natural landscape of the Düben Heath to the idyllic town of Dreiheide, which is made up of three districts: Weidenhain - Großwig - Süptitz. Hikers can find refreshing relaxation at the bathing lake in Pressel, which is located next to a campsite, and in the natural pool in Großwig. One of the most interesting sights is one of the oldest post mills in Germany, dating from 1840, which is located in Bad Düben. Located between Wittenberg and Leipzig, Bad Düben was often a stopover for Luther and other reformers on their journeys. There is evidence that Luther visited the church in Süptitz in 1535, which was built in the 13th century. Süptitz was a wine-growing region in the 16th century and the Elector sent Süptitz wine to Luther on several occasions.
