Geography

Mühlanger lies about 9 km east of Lutherstadt Wittenberg on the Elbe. It has three subdivisions: Hohndorf, Prühlitz and Gallin. Federal Highway (Bundesstraße) B 187 running from Wittenberg to Jessen runs right through the community.

History

Hohndorf had its first documentary mention in 1304. The municipality Mühlanger was founded in 1939 by uniting the villages of Prühlitz and Hohndorf. Gallin was amalgamated in 1974.

Regular events

The Park and Homeland Festival takes place yearly in early July.
