In 2025, fewer lucky people in Saxony have won millions in the lottery than in the previous year. According to the Saxon lottery company, five players have won a seven-figure sum so far. In 2024, twelve lottery millionaires were counted in the Free State. There are still a few draws to go before New Year's Eve.
Of the five big winners this year, two came from the state capital Dresden, two from Leipzig and one from North Saxony. One of the lucky Dresden residents won a good €3.2 million in May by matching six numbers in the classic "6 out of 49" lottery. In mid-March, a woman from Dresden hit the jackpot in the supplementary lottery "Spiel 77" and was able to enjoy almost 1.6 million euros.
