GermanyBrandenburg, Aufgabe 7 · Brandenburg · Your federal state
The capital of the state of Brandenburg is …
In the exam (German)
Die Landeshauptstadt von Brandenburg heißt …
- aPotsdam.Potsdam.Correct answer
- bCottbus.Cottbus.
- cBrandenburg.Brandenburg.
- dFrankfurt/Oder.Frankfurt/Oder.
Why?
The state capital of Brandenburg is Potsdam, known for Sanssouci Palace; the state parliament (Landtag) and the state government are based there. The trap: there is also the city of Brandenburg an der Havel – the state is named after it, but it is not the capital. Cottbus and Frankfurt (Oder) are important cities in the state, but they are not the capital either.
