Neumark is a municipality in the Vogtlandkreis district, in Saxony, Germany.

The Neumark (), also known as the New March (Polish: Nowa Marchia) or as East Brandenburg (German: ), was a region of the Margraviate of Brandenburg and its successors located east of the Oder River in territory which became part of Poland in 1945. Called the Lubusz Land while part of medieval Poland, the territory later known as the Neumark gradually became part of the German Margraviate of Brandenburg from the mid-13th century. As Brandenburg-Küstrin the Neumark formed an independent state of the Holy Roman Empire of the German Nation from 1535 to 1571; after the death of the margrave John, a younger son of Joachim I Nestor, Elector of Brandenburg, it returned to Elector John George, the margrave's nephew and Joachim I Nestor's grandson. With the rest of the Electorate of Brandenburg, it became part of the Kingdom of Prussia in 1701 and part of the German Empire in 1871 when each of those states first formed. After World War I the entirely ethnic German Neumark remained within the Free State of Prussia, itself part of the Weimar Republic (Germany). After World War II the Potsdam Conference assigned the majority of the Neumark to Polish administration, and since 1945 has remained part of Poland. Polish settlers largely replaced the expelled German population. Most of the Polish territory became part of the Lubusz Voivodeship, while the northern towns Choszczno (Arnswalde), Myślibórz (Soldin), and Chojna (Königsberg in der Neumark) belong to the West Pomeranian Voivodeship. Some territory near Cottbus, which was administratively part of the Government Region of Frankfurt (coterminous with the Neumark) after the 1815 Congress of Vienna, became part of East Germany in the 1940s, becoming part of Germany after reunification in 1990.

Werdau (German pronunciation: [ˈvɛʁdaʊ̯] ) is a town in Germany, part of the Landkreis Zwickau in Saxony. It is situated on the river Pleiße, 8 km from Zwickau. The town was mentioned as early as 1304, and in 1398 it was purchased by Frederick, then margrave of Meissen, who afterwards became Elector of Saxony.The textile industry was the dominant industry in Werdau since the 14th century. The industrial character of the town further increased in the 20th century with the large-scale truck production by the IFA conglomerate. Both industries were not competitive after the German reunification in 1990, leading to a sharp deindustrialisation. The character of the town changed dramatically over the last 20 years after almost all factories were demolished and the characteristic East-German residential Plattenbauten were scaled back. In 1905, the city held a contest for the design of a new town hall, as the old one built in 1727 had become too small. The tower and floorplan of one design was combined with the façade of another, and ground was broken for construction on 1 August 1908. It was inaugurated on 26 April 1911, with Frederick Augustus III of Saxony in attendance.Werdau station is located on the Leipzig–Hof railway.

The river originally had a natural length of 115 km (71 mi); however, south of Leipzig, it has been straightened, which shortened it to around 90 km (56 mi).

Hirschfeld Wildlife Park (German: Tierpark Hirschfeld) is in Voigtsgrün, part of the municipality of Hirschfeld, near Zwickau in the German Free State of Saxony. Records by Lady Martha von Arnim (née von Schlegell) prove that the site and its stand of trees have been protected for centuries. Maps from 1870 show that there was already a wildlife enclosure at this site. It belonged to Lord Alexander von Arnim, who kept deer here. In 1890, a hunting lodge was built in the enclosure that still exists today and is referred to as the "log cabin" (Blockhaus). In 1909, his brother, Arno von Arnim, inherited Voigtsgrün and thus the animal enclosure too. In 1956, the enclosure, which covered an area of about 6 hectares, was turned into a wildlife park. The first livestock included red deer, red fox and badger. Today, the area of the park has been enlarged and contains about 600 animals of 90 species. These include raccoon dogs, wild boar, bears, gray wolves, pot-bellied pigs, waders, Heidschnucken, raccoons, porcupines, mouflon, bison, snowy owls, monkeys and ferrets. The area also includes trees up to 450 years old. In addition to the animal enclosures, the park also has a petting zoo, restaurants, a minigolf course and a children's playground. Visitors are allowed to bring their dogs to the park.
