Answer 2

During the Communist era, Wittenberg became the center of East Germany's chemical industry.

Explanation:

• Wittenberg is well-known for its intimate association with Martin Luther and the Protestant Reformation, for which it was bestowed the title Lutherstadt.
• Several structures at Wittenberg are involved with the events, including a surviving section of the Augustinian monastery where Luther resided, first as a monk and subsequently as owner with his wife Katharina von Bora and family, and which is regarded as the world's premier Luther museum.
• Wittenberg was also the seat of the Elector of Saxony, a title held by the dukes of Saxe-Wittenberg, making it one of the Holy Roman Empire's most important towns.
• The town is an important hub of the chemical sector, with the SKW Stickstoffwerke Piesteritz GmbH, which occupies more than 220 hectares and employs more than 1,500 people.
