The man is believed to be connected to two explosions that occurred on September 26 in Dresden. One explosion went off in front of a mosque, while the other was at the city`s International Congress Center. The blasts caused damage to the buildings but no one was injured.
The incidents occurred a week before the official ceremonies marking the Day of German Unity on October 3, which were hosted by Dresden in 2016.
The suspect is expected to have his first court appearance on Friday.
