Mühlanger is a village and a former municipality in Wittenberg district in Saxony-Anhalt, Germany. Since 1 January 2014, it is part of the town Zahna-Elster. From 1 January 2011 until 29 May 2013, it was also part of Zahna-Elster, but this was reverted by court decision.[1] Previously the municipality belonged to the administrative municipality (Verwaltungsgemeinschaft) of Elbaue-Fläming.

Geography
