:"For other uses see Saxonia (disambiguation)"

The Saxonia was the first locomotive built in Germany in 1838. Its name means "Saxony" in Latin.

The steam locomotive was constructed by Johann Andreas Schubert for the Leipzig-Dresden-Railway (LDE), the railway in Saxony and the first long-range railway in Germany. Its major construction was based on the "Comet", built in the United Kingdom and first used on the LDE.
