The 37 best districts to stay in Leipzig

Decent hotel, good breakfast. Convenient location. Excellent bed. Quiet. Large bathroom. Problems: courtyard facing rooms are a bit dark; housekeeping issues (towel from carpet floor back on rack, dusty wardrobe shelves, forgets to replenish shower gel, ear buds etc). This is with daily tipping :). I did not try the spa and the restaurant.

In my opinion, one of the finest Steigenberger hotels. The Grandhotel Handelshof impresses with its elegant interior, spacious rooms, and exceptional service. The atmosphere is refined yet welcoming, with great attention to detail throughout. The breakfast buffet is excellent, offering a wide selection of fresh and high-quality products. The location couldn’t be better – right in the city center, within walking distance of all major sights. Overall, a truly outstanding hotel that perfectly reflects the Steigenberger Icon standard.

I've traveled to many international destinations, and this hotel truly stands out. From its prime location to the exceptional staff and the amazing breakfast and drinks, everything was magnificent. This place sets a high standard hard to find somewhere else.

I went there for their monthly Brunch. It's a nice 50€/person. Personal is really nice and attentive but only student and asking 6 times the same thing. The food is nice, but for this price you would your egg benedict to be a real benedict, and you would expect a bit more fancy stuff. They proposed a glass at the entrance, and a water after that, and you need to pay on top for that. (at least inform me). The Miso Soup was horribly salty. Anyway, I have no problem paying money for good stuff, but it was not worth it. Next time maybe?

Excellent hotel conveniently located in Leipzig. The rooms were luxurious and comfortable. The staff was very courteous and helpful. Definitely recommend. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

I parked my fatigue at five shining stars, With soft beds, silence, and dreams from afar. Steigenberger in Leipzig — pure class, no disguise, A corner of calm beneath royal skies.

Horrible service! I have to call them at least 7 times so someone answers me and even emails can take several days to respond. It just seems like they don't care about ordinary clients!

Beautiful church with stained glass windows. We had the pleasure of attending a musical showcase with the Thomanerchor Leipzig. This was such an amazing experience. When visiting remember to also look up at the domed roof and admire the small intricate designs.

Bach's church where he worked and lived, and is buried. This is a must-see If you are in Leipzig. The interior is beautiful with stained glass and various carvings and ornamentation. The church and connected buildings are very large. I saw a couple school groups here.

Seeing Bach's church was the reason we came to Germany and it didn't disappoint, at least according to my Bachophile son. It was easy to buy tickets at the door and you could easily see the whole thing in 30 minutes. But very contemplative and it's fun to imagine history's greatest composer walking those same steps. I'd recommend bringing some headsets and Bach albums (although the museum next door had ample samples) as it was silent when we were there. There's a few interesting artifacts from Bach.

I visited this church in March, 2025. I was deeply moved to visit this church, so rich in history and positive energy. Moreover, I felt the timelessness of Bach’s notes resonating throughout the space. It was truly thrilling! 💖

Beautiful church with excellent comprehensive guide in English. Don't miss the Bach artefacts in the small room on the right of the main entrance. Interesting stained glass and contemporary Bach organ. For those following Martin Luther, there's a window of him with Frederick the Wise and Melanchthon.

st. thomas church (thomaskirche) in leipzig is famous for its music. it's where j.s. bach worked for 27 years and is buried. it's also home to the legendary st. thomas boys choir (thomanerchor) – try to catch their weekly performances (motets) if you can. it's a beautiful, historic church and a must-see for any music fan in leipzig

This is one of the must see places in Leipzig. The place is temple for music and prayer. The art work and high gothic domes and the vibe is positive. It’s great to see that this was a great place for Leipzig music history.

This amazing monument is a powerful reminder of the past and history. You can really feel the strong emotions when you’re there. Be prepared for lots of staircases—there are more than 350 steps, and some of them are in narrow, tiny hallways. It’s definitely not for claustrophobic people, but there’s an elevator that takes you up part of the way, though it doesn’t reach the top. It’s a great place to visit during the summer or spring when the weather is nice!

A stunning monument that witnessed through its history empires, kingdoms and republics coming and going…. A must see by everyone who loves history! Fabulous views to the city as well as relaxing beautiful park!

Great experience with a rich history. I chose a non audio self tour and would highly recommend this. It's a place of reflection and would rather go undisturbed. The staircase to the top is steep though. Just so you know 😉

If you had only one thing to do in Leipzig, please visit this place. This monument is the tallest in all of Europe and it commemorates the war that broke Napoleon. No tickets required

This intense and impressive monument is a MUST SEE if you are in Leipzig. The scale is stunning and is reminiscent of the Mines of Moria in Lord of the Rings. There are multiple lifts but if you want to get to the top viewing area, you have to use the stairs and it is a little walk. No bad, but most people emerged a little winded and sweaty. The sweeping views of Leipzig are great and, if you go on a sunny day, you can see many miles/kilometers in every direction. Highly recommended.

A really impressive monument. It really makes you feel the enormity of the event being memorialized much like the World War I monument in Kansas City. There was a feeling of heaviness about the monument and it made me feel retrospective. A very nice visit. A stroll through the cemetery nextdoor is also warranted.

It's really a great memorial of history and the way the people looked at history more than hundred years ago. The museum isn't very big and informative, but the battle miniatures are quite interesting.

An absolute must see if you are visiting Leipzig. The beautiful ceiling alone is worth the trip. There are interesting displays on the role the church played in the demonstrations in 1989.

Very pretty church inside, and amazing cold-war era history to it. In fact I think one of the Stasi has been working in the Church since the wall came down judging by his manner when I visited a few weeks ago. OK so I was taking a photo (apologies as I never realised that taking a picture of a building that is dedicated to a make-believe figure is disrespectful, and I don't remember seeing Thou Shalt Not Take Pictures In My Holy Buildings in the commandments when Charlton Heston brought them forth from high upon a Hollywood hill somewhere), but this guy was just plain self righteous and rude. Be polite, and treat us mere mortal sinners as human beings. We make mistakes so why not forgive us our trespasses. Hmmm....where have I heard that phrase before?

This church is deeply intertwined with history, offering a unique glimpse into the past. A must-visit for anyone interested in architecture and cultural heritage!

If you're visiting Leipzig, St. Nicholas Church is an absolute must-see. While it's historically and religiously significant, it's also an incredibly meaningful place in the history of music—making it especially memorable for those who love music and the arts. I’ve visited two years in a row to attend performances during the Bach Festival, and each time was a rich and unique experience thanks to the world-class music and the special atmosphere that only this venue can offer. Located right in the city center, the church is easily accessible and surrounded by plenty of other attractions and dining options within walking distance.

For a people like mine, who have long yearned for recognition and self-determination, the story of the Peaceful Revolution that began here is incredibly moving. To think that these very walls, once a place of worship, became the cradle of a movement that brought down a regime without a single shot fired... it's a powerful reminder that change, true change, can sprout from the most unexpected places.

While it feels strange to “rate” a church, I choose to do so in order to help maintain awareness of the importance of this church both as a place of worship and with its important place in music history. This is, after all, the church where Johan Sebastian Bach’s masterpiece, the St. John Passion, was first performed. During his many years of tenure in charge of the liturgical music for all of Leipzig’s churches at the time, Bach would have performed, directed the choir and written music for this church on numerous occasions.

It’s a highly historical place for the German reunification. It’s the place where protests were located and German people in the GDR gathered to stand up against the socialist regime. It’s a must see when in Leipzig! It’s free to visit but 3 Euro for pictures. It’s wonderfully renovated and colourful. Sometimes you even have the possibility to listen to concerts.

We love the museum— informative, fun, beautiful— especially the room where you could compose a song and the orchestra room. The young lady staff member inside the museum was lovely. The only downside was when we purchased the ticket. The old lady was incredibly grumpy and rude. How can you put a person like that as the first tourist touchpoint!?!

The museum isn’t very big, and that’s exactly what makes it so enjoyable. What makes this museum especially fun are the interactive elements. You’re not just a spectator, but also a participant. There are installations you can try out or listen to, which makes the experience more vivid and personal. For anyone who loves classical art and culture, this place is truly worth a visit.

Such an amazing venue to learn about the timeline of one of the best composers of all time. The house is quite big with detailed description of Bach's musical stories. Interactive listening session is available inside. Highly recommended for anyone who enjoys Bach's music!

We enjoyed our visit very much. The museum is light, bright and well laid out. The exhibits are engaging and varied and we learnt a lot about Bach and Leipzig. I couldn't ask for more from a museum.

Amazing museum definitely recommend for Bach and music lovers in general!

Wonderful, not to be missed museum on J. S. Bach's life and musical career. And it was free with English audio guide! The highlight for me, and I suspect other classical music lovers was the original and only remaining organ that he sat and played at next door St. Thomas church (which also must be seen). Quite sublime to think about.

Brilliant. A great overview of the great man and his stay in Leipzig. Definitely recommend the audio guide as it adds a lot of context to the exhibits and it's not too wordy. Highly recommend a visit here.

Lots of good restaurants including Tills Tunnel

Premium shopping area. Traditional European look and well displayed shops, not so wide but good enough space corridors.

Very well decorated for the Christmas season. Cafes/Bars available to sit an watch the day pass by. Not a busy place but very pleasant

Very beatuful structure but important is down stairs restaurant. This is very old wine house Gothe came here many years and write Faust here and desciribe wine house open evening

It's an amazing shopping destination and has a beautiful interior design

Absolutely brilliant. I came on a recommendation and thoroughly enjoyed it.

It’s a very beautiful passage with many restaurants, boutiques, & saloon.

This park is so beautiful that every corner csn offer you different type of things. So calm and peaceful. Loved it.i went their when it was fall.. So colorful. I recommend everyone to go there if someone vidit leipzig.

Very, very large park. Fairly the largest park I’ve ever set foot on. And from its hugeness, there are a lot of activities actually. From street music and food trucks, and a lot more! But on its own, just Mother Nature herself, whatever season it is Clara-Zetkin-Park is tremendously beautiful.

Great park, lots of spots to sit. There is a restaurant with toilets

Beautiful park especially during the autum, the reflections are unbelievable!!

This park is enormous and has a lot of path. There are 2 restaurants / Biergarten within vicinity. Many people do sports (jogging, cycling), picnic, playing with ball ⚽️, playing music, etc. especially at night. When i visited on mid June on the other part of the park and it was full of colorful flowers 🌺

That park it is amazing. It Gives the feeling that you are on a different planet, with the 3 river united together, the XIX century bridge, little lakes, cute cozy restaurants, free music bands flashing their undiscovered talent... everything it is so marvelous, magical.

Large, flat as normal for Leipzig, some nice natural spots but mostly city park vibe, just larger. Good places for ice cream, etc. Generally great for a relaxed time with friends. River runs through it, allowing watching the boats. Has big events like the eco festival that I attended there. Could use more benches.

Avoid. Unfortunately, my experience was so negative that if it were possible, I would give a minus rating. * Room: The room was excessively hot.The air conditioning being set at 25 degrees and did not go below 22 degrees, making it impossible to sleep comfortably without opening the window. This then resulted in significant noise disruption from the main and busy street below. * Parking: The parking is super narrow and completely full. * Value for money: super poor given the issues encountered. Took ages, but we were not charged at the end * Service: The level of service I received was deplorable. In fact, it was the first time I have ever left a hotel late in the evening to find alternative accommodation due to the poor experience. Furthermore, I was astonished by the level of aggression that seemed necessary to receive any assistance, even for a simple request such as contacting the on-call manager to resolve a disagreement. I have received better service at budget hotels. My astonishment stems primarily from the behavior of one particular staff member. Her arrogant, rude, dismissive, and hostile attitude was evident from the outset (check in), even before we or her were aware of any problem. This behavior unfortunately continued throughout our interactions and was the main reason for escalations. The conflict was eventually resolved thanks to the intervention of another, more junior but highly impressive, member of staff and a gentleman who took decisive action to address a situation that initially seemed impossible to resolve, thereby preventing further escalation. This experience has been so negative that I will no longer consider staying at any Melia hotels in the future (with or without loyalty rewards), which is disappointing as I have, in the far past, had positive experiences with your chain in Spain and Vietnam and have left 5-star reviews where warranted. Based on my recent stay, I would strongly advise others to avoid Melia and especially this particular hotel.

INNSiDE by Meliá’s location was unbeatable, directly across from the Thomaskirche (where Bach is buried) and is an easy walking distance to all Leipzig’s sights. The self check in process was quick and smooth for anyone following the pre arrival email instructions. Staff were exceptionally friendly and helpful. Our room was very comfortable, and the complimentary drinks in the mini fridge were a thoughtful touch. The rooftop terrace provides a beautiful restful area to take in the city or unwind with dinner and drinks. I would gladly recommend this hotel and would stay here again.

I would like to extend my heartfelt thanks to the entire staff at Innside Leipzig, especially Ms. Bonell at the reception for their exceptional service and kindness. My stay was wonderful, and I highly recommend this hotel for its cleanliness, location, and excellent staff. Google Review - *5/5 stars*: This hotel truly deserves 5 stars. - *Highly recommend*: I highly recommend this hotel to all travelers visiting Leipzig. - *Exceptional experience*: My experience at this hotel was exceptional, and I will definitely return. Hotel Review - *Cleanliness*: The hotel is extremely clean, and the rooms are well-equipped. - *Location*: The location is excellent, close to the city center and main attractions. - *Reception*: The reception staff are friendly and helpful, providing excellent service. - *Staff*: The staff are courteous, efficient, and go above and beyond to ensure a pleasant stay. I appreciate the hard work and dedication of the entire team at Innside Leipzig, and I'm grateful for the wonderful experience I had during my stay. Mohamed Alhammadi

Had a fantastic two day stay at the Meliá Leipzig. Staff was friendly and helpful and the breakfast was amazing. The location is very close to the city centre which makes exploring Leipzig very easy. Also loved the rooms and the “free” minibar. However, “Veltins” is clearly not a local beer 😅

Room is falling apart. Not worth the 200 Euro/night. I let the pictures speak for themselves. From broken frame, dirt handprints on doors, a couch that's stained and browned, to bathroom fixtures that were falling apart and a tub shelf that was discolored. There was even a large bag of cigarette butts and garbage in the gutter of the balcony. In the main bedroom, the window was not sealing properly, so you hear everything from ourside and the hotel has removed the handel so you can't even try to close & open it again to fix things. We booked this hotel because it had parking in a central location, but when we got there, they said that parking was full so we had to pay for overnight parking at a commercial location instead. The only good things about the hotel was the bed, which was comfortable, there are 2 waters and 2 juices, as well as a beer for free in the fridge, and a few sweets + fruits were placed on the table as a welcome gift. Service was fine. Full disclosure, we didn't try to get a different room, as we stayed only for one night and we were in a bit of a rush after check-in to get to dinner and a tour we had booked that evening.

Clean and comfy hotel in a great location. Amazing breakfast, friendly staff. Rooms are small, but for 2 people it's enough. Only one downside is the price of the garage - 28 euros per 24 hours, but luckily, there are other, cheaper options nearby.

Perfect hotel to stay at Lepizig!! Room, service, hall, restaurant, breakfast are also goo!! Very very recommended Hotel!

A good, well stocked bar. Breakfast is continental, sadly none of the thinly sliced cheese on offer has any flavour, but the bread is good. The room was comfortable and you can open the window. The shower was very effective, too.

Excellent: very clean, nicely decorated and well organized rooms. Great bar atmosphere, day or night. Very good breakfast. Perfect services. Right in the heart of Leipzig.

Nothing can beat the location of the Hotel in the old city center, depending on the room one can even get quite a good view. The staff was friendly but didn’t seem like they tried to find solutions for problems. The rooms are quite nice with a modern interior and a spa like atmosphere.

Stayed for four nights, August 2024, and couldn't fault it. It's a very good hotel right in the middle of Leipzig city centre. Clean rooms, good breakfast, lovely staff. Rooms are on the small side, basic, but who stays in them except to sleep. Go out to one of the very good bars or restaurants.

Hotel Motel One is a nice, clean, modern hotel in a very central location of Leipzig. The rooms are modern but a little more basic than I thought they would be. It’s a comfy stay if you’re just exploring the city.

Overall good value for money and great location. Unfortunately we were unlucky - one of the two lifts was out of order (3rd floor was manageable for those able to take the stairs) and the nearby construction noise starting before 8a on a Saturday morning was unacceptable. In addition it was mentioned (only in the hotel after arrival) that there would be construction work from 9a from the garage - the drill hammer noise starting sharp at 9 was the final straw to downgrade the rating. So if you plan to book I would recommend to check beforehand about the construction work and other issues that might impact your stay. Next time we will try one of the other two Motel One hotels nearby.

This seems to be a hotel focused on lower pricing but in this case well positioned in central Leipzig. Accordingly, the rooms are small and minimalistic. Bed are good and the place is quiet. Good breakfast. People at the front desk are friendly and helpful.

Great spacious hall architecture. Biggest collection of Käthe Kollwitz Graphics. Fabulous collection of Leipzig's artists. On the old fashioned side when it comes to Contemp Painting Curation.

Incredibly impressive modern building—an absolute must-see, even just for the architecture. The museum itself is worth visiting for the experience of the space alone. Be sure to take the lift; it’s remarkably spacious—perhaps the most generous elevator I’ve ever seen. The art collection is small but thoughtfully curated. However, one puzzling aspect was the display arrangement: smaller paintings hung directly above larger ones made it nearly impossible to appreciate the finer details. Hopefully, the museum will reconsider this presentation to better showcase the works. Still, a memorable visit in a truly striking setting

Nice building and exposition. Especially I liked its inclusivity. There were several paintings that had their versions of the painting designed to help people who are blind or have low vision understand theirs composition.

Superb collection of paintings and sculptures in a beautiful and stylish building of concrete, glass and wood. The people working there are the most helpful and friendly I have ever seen in any museum!

I thoroughly enjoyed this museum. It was pleasantly uncrowded, and the exhibitions were thoughtfully curated.

A fine (though not great) collection of mostly German artists from 16th century to present day. Staff is friendly and helpful and the permanent exhibition is free to see.

Marvellous building and atmosphere. Two big permanent collections with free entrance. A must while visiting Leipzig.

I think this is the most majestic Rathaus in Germany Stunning

Impressive building with a great Tower that can be visited at 14.00 daily, the guided tower tour costs 3 euro for adults. A cool place with a great view of the city👍

Very beautiful new town house! Don’t miss some info board about what happen there in 89

Leipzig New Town Hall (Neues Rathaus) is the seat of the Leipzig city administration since 1905. It stands within the Leipzig's "ring road" on the southwest corner opposite the city library at Martin-Luther-Ring. The main tower is, at 114.8 meters, the tallest city hall tower in Germany. In 1897 the architect and city building director of Leipzig Hugo Licht was awarded the job of designing it. The foundation stone of the New Town Hall was laid on 19 October 1899 The town hall features as a backdrop in the Alfred Hitchcock film Torn Curtain. The Deputy Mayor of Leipzig and his wife and daughter, who committed suicide as American troops were entering the city on 20 April 1945.

Came here for research purposes. Conducted pressure measurements from the top of the tower. The town hall in itself is beautiful from both the inside and the outside. Sadly the paternoster lift was out of order. The view from the top is great.

This town hall looks like a small historical fortress in the middle of a modern city. Monolithic and at the same time figuratively elegant. I was always impressed and pleased whenever I met old buildings that still play a role in the new era, instead of just decaying and withering. This is a very beautiful building.

Standing majestically at the southwest corner of Leipzig's Old Town is the New Town Hall, Neues Rathaus, in the style of the German Late Renaissance. Completed in 1905, this massive building occupies the site of the 13th Century Pleissenburg, with parts of the old castle being incorporated in the 115 meter high central tower.

I absolutely loved the temporary exhibition on futuristic matériels and design for living through an apocalypse. So much hope for the future expressed, despite where we seem to be going. The permanent collection is great too, what I saw of it. Lots of beautiful ceramics…probably other things I missed. We happened on a ceramic market on the ground too, which was a special bonus. I was amazed by the quality, diversity and volume of works available for purchase. So many beautiful things!

The museum visit was free. The number of exhibits exposed is huge, but you have to be really passionate about this to stay and look at each one.

Amazing art objects from Antiquity until modern times through 3 different exhibitions. Such an impressive collection! There is a written guide for each exhibition which is available in different languages which is quite helpful because most explanations are in German. Free admisison to the permanent exhibition which is a plus.

The musical instrument exhibit is really spectacular, tracing Western instruments chronologically over several hundred years. Many of the signs are in German so expect to use a translation app. The entry fee is cash only. Spent about 2 hours here but you could easily spend more if you desired. If you are a music student, current or past, this is a must see in Leipzig.

I visited this museum for the ethnographic collection with a group of South and Southeast Asia scholars. I have not seen the Applied Arts section, which I hear is great. The ethnographic section was rather disappointing, as it is (as of September 2024) in the process of being converted into a sort of meta-museum and a post-colonial guilt trip. Instead of having the ethnographic collection on display they now have rooms full of woke posters about how sad it is that many artefacts were acquired immorally and unfairly. I'm not saying that these details should be suppressed and forgotten. I'm all for bringing them out into the open. But... on the one hand, their presentation should not take the form of one-sided self-flagellation but also acknowledge the tremendous contribution of ethnographic museums to preservation and knowledge dissemination. How many of those collection pieces, whether fairly or unfairly acquired, would by now have been lost to war, decay and deliberate iconoclasm, and how many would have been sold unscrupulously to private collectors on the black and grey market, if they hadn't been carried to those bad-bad colonial museums? And on the other hand, an ethnographic museum is not the place to house exhibitions addressing colonial guilt. That is like closing down a library and converting it into a guilt trip because it used to house many works by ancient Greek authors who had slaves to cook their dinner (so let's forget about their timeless philosophy and plays), by people like Rudyard Kipling brimming with the white man's superiority (so let's forget about his astute psychology and engrossing narrative), etc. No, please let's keep the library and find a different venue to address the questionable moral background, and even there, let's address it with a fair view of the entire context. That said, there were still a few rooms of the old, actual, ethnographic collection, which was great to see. They included a village hut from India, built on the site by authentic artisans invited for the purpose, with many of the materials also brought from the region of origin. Other materials were sourced locally, for instance cowdung for the wall plaster came from a German organic cattle farm, where the craftspeople first made a visit to check if the material is really suitable for their purpose. I hear that there used to be several other traditional buildings in the museum, presumably built with the same devotion and care, and enjoyed by countless children and adults as tangible reminders of how other people live and settings where they could hear about other cultures. Too bad that they are gone.

Very impressive collection of the musical instruments, not only European, with some very curious specimens. "Sound laboratory" was also very cool, though a bit skewed to various simple percussion instruments. Maybe the only disadvantage is the lack of English translation for a big part of exhibits.

Amazing museum with plenty of exhibitions, which vary in their complexity. From ceramics to musical instruments, and even both combined! That's a challenge for you: find a ceramic violin :)

Charming Hotel but Needs More Attention to Detail We recently stayed at Hotel Fregehaus and while the hotel itself had charm, our experience was not without issues. Upon check-in, we were given an accessibility room, even though we hadn’t requested one. While we understand that these rooms are necessary for some guests, it would have been appreciated if the hotel had communicated this change beforehand. The room had a few drawbacks that impacted our stay. The bed, which was advertised as a queen, was actually two singles pushed together. Unfortunately, they would separate easily if we weren’t careful, making for an uncomfortable night’s sleep. Additionally, there was a persistent bad smell coming from the toilet, and another unpleasant odor in the room whose source we couldn’t identify. While the room appeared clean, these lingering smells detracted from the overall comfort. On the bright side, the hotel had a lovely atmosphere, and the common areas were well-maintained. The staff was polite, but more attention to detail—especially in room assignments, maintenance, and overall guest comfort—would greatly improve the experience. With a few adjustments, Hotel Fregehaus has the potential to be truly great.

A beautiful hotel in every way. Our room on the second floor overlooked the lovely little courtyard. The room was grea, lots of space, high ceilings, interesting art on the walls. The room was obviously put together by someone with a real eye for interior design.

At first I barely noticed the sign on the street wall but then I realized Hotel Fregehaus has these 2 huge old time doors wide open. I was told the building dates back to the renaissance. The entrance and court yard look it. Very cool, kinda medieval. But the room was totally modern decor. Cozy quaint place right in the middle of Leipzig, a cool town on the up and up. I had to park my rental car in a nearby public lot for only $8 euros for 24 hrs. Awesome deal. Breakfast was $10 euros extra but tasty.

Lovely place, really - when I return to Leipzig, I will for sure return. Tasteful room, great interior choices, also common room downstairs and upstairs, helpful staff - even price was fair, breakfast simple basic but totally nice and fair priced - highly recommended

Wonderful nostalgic hotel with a cute courtyard. The rooms are full with modern design classicals and handpicked furnitures. The walls of the hotel are sensitive and it's disturbed the homecoming party peple and the food delivery.

Nice location direct in the old town. St. Thomas church just a short walk away. Great Service, clean rooms, silent and a delicous breakfast. Recommed for a stay in Leipzig City.

Summary: cute personal design hotel in the center of Leipzig Would I go again: for sure Room: modern with old elements, cosy bed, very lean but with stylish features Location: super central in a wonderful renovated old town building, cute plants store in the courtyard Service: personal and super friendly Breakfast: we just had the corona option :-( but it was surprisingly good

Excellent communications. Superb, comfortable and spacious apartment. Good location for town centre yet very quiet and safe neighbourhood. I could quite easily live here.

Melina was very helpful and informative before we arrived and even more so on meeting at the property. The apartment was a lovely size, beautifully furnished with everything you could need. Would not hesitate to return and would 100% recommend this over a hotel stay.

It was great apt with very helpful staff. Quiet, comfortable and spacious. Highly recommend to stay here for relax and for visiting Leipzig.

Perfect accommodation for my weekend stay in Leipzig. A very warm personal welcome by a friendly staff, easy check in/out, comfortable bed and sofa, great shower and full equipped kitchen. The apartment was decorated with taste and high quality. The location was also a great plus - very beautiful neighbourhood, central yet extremely quiet. Only 15 min to the historic centre and 5 min to a big park. Bakeries, supermarkets, restaurants and cafés are around the corner. Even though I was there only for 3 nights, I can easily imagine staying there for a longer period. I cannot recommend enough!

Great place! Clean, friendly and beautiful. We stayed for a quick family weekend, but would definitely keep in mind for business travel as well.

Great apartments! Very clean and the interior design is very stylish. The staff was very friendly and helpful. Our new place to stay whenever we are in Leipzig.

Loved it. Super nice and authentic apartment. Very modern, practical apartment. I can definitely recommend Cora to stay in Leipzig

Went there for the photography exhibition. Great re-use of old Baumwollspinnerei. Galleries where young people have a “whatever, I dont care” attitude. 🤣 Very hipster if thats your vibe.

Since galleries are gathered in one place, you can see a variety of exhibitions here. It's very big, and the people are all friendly.

Expected more from this place. It's rather empty, quiet and not as many stores and firms as shown on Google maps. The craft supply store is amazing.

Galleries with eclectic art pieces. Easy to get to by tram, s-bahn, or regional train. Access to free WC when we were there.

If you're not an art fan, do not come to this place 😂 So many tiny + big galleries! Free of charge, beside one big gallery that asked for 4 euros. It was a bit disappointing that few of the galleries were close or open but didn't welcome visitors. The place is just beautiful. Take your time and try to see as much as you can before 5pm. I was exhausted but satisfied.

The Leipzig Cotton Spinning Mill was once one of the largest industrial complexes in Europe for processing cotton. Today, it is an important center for contemporary art, housing numerous galleries, studios, and creative spaces. The industrial charm of the historic site attracts artists and visitors from around the world.

A really cool concept, a lovely space being used as an artist village. Einen Besuch ist es wert. The 45 minute tour is also worth it, especially if you'd like to get an overview before you start exploring yourselves.

Beautiful place, very peaceful and offers a lot to see. You can also pay a small fee and visit the greenhouses, where you can see plants from different ecosystems (tropical, Mediterranean, mangroves) and of course don't forget the butterfly house.

Stunning place and so well taken care of. Enjoyed the butterflies as well as the greenery. My partner and I just got engaged there, and it will always be a special memory 💜

For only €3 student entry this is an experience that you must go to whilst in Leipzig. All of the greenhouses were beautifully maintained and we got to see a butterfly emerge from a chrysalis which was a very special moment.

The hothouse where the butterflies are is quite small, and quite warm (especially since we visited on a summer day) but you can see the butterflies up close. I kind of expected more variety, but anyway, you do get to see some beautiful creatures.

A pleasant afternoon activity 😊 would highly recommend 👌

Beautiful butterflies and exotic tropical plants in the glass house as well as some interesting cacti and succulents. Also had some cool plants for sale if only I'd not been flying so couldn't bring any home. Maybe a little expensive at €5 since quite small area but I guess you don't get a lot for €5 these days.

Small botanical garden with number of different plants. No ticket for outdoor areas, indoor places need ticket (adult 5 euros, children 3 euros)

The rooms are HUGE, comfy, and super clean. Staff is always polite and helpful, the food is great and the conference space is also very nice. It is close to the market, stores and restaurants. Overall I had a very pleasant stay and would definitely come back.

Great hotel. We really enjoyed our stay. The room was pretty nice , spacious and super clean. Everyone in the hotel was very accommodating and the hotel is pet friendly which is really helpful as we traveled with our dog. Delicious breakfast was the cherry on the top- don’t miss it!

I passed by Leipzig on a car trip and just happened to book a room at Hotel Michaelis. This turned out to be a very good choice as the hotel was excellent in many aspects. Super-friendly and helpful staff. A large and clean room with a view of towers and church spires. Nice breakfast included, as well as a small bottle of wine. All this for 79 Euro, which is very competitive price/performance.

The location of the hotel is very good, the rooms are big and comfortable, the breakfast is the best I've ever had in a hotel. There are two major problems though: first would be the lack of A/C in the rooms. It was terribly hot last week and I had to choose whether I won't sleep because of the temperature or because of the awful noise from the tram that goes on the nearby street. Second is the quality of the WLAN connection. They have provided the rooms with an Ethernet cable, but it's usable only for laptops and not for the phone. Anyway I would recommend the hotel, but there's certainly room for improvement.

Very good hotel with quite comfortable but also very modern and functional rooms, even if they are not very big. The breakfast is varied and includes the possibility of cooking your own waffles! The hotel staff is kind. Regarding the place, it is in a quiet area, but just 10 minutes walking far from the City Hall.

Very good hotel in a reasonable price. Helpful and friendly staff and receptionist. Good breakfast at their restaurant. Good location. Easy access to tram and bus.

Very clean, very well run hotel in a great "alternative" location. Very friendly staff. I also recommend the restaurant. You get the main course of the day as room service for a very modest price!

I love the historic buildings in this square. Some are over 400 years old. From Friday through Sunday, the street comes alive with food and street performers. I loved the energy and vibe!

The Marktplatz in Leipzig always has something going on. While I visited this year, the Weinfest was happening. Also, from this central place you'll have a great point from which to decide to go to any place in Leipzig.

One of the best in Leipzig. You can do enjoying yourself with nice surrounding you. I spent like 1 hours here. The weather also nice during summer.

Great bars and eateries. Lovely buildings. Great beer. Could have done with a police presence to curtail a particularly aggressive individual smashing bottles two nights in a row in the same spot. Otherwise splendid.

🏙 Marktplatz Leipzig, The heart of the city. Surrounded by historic buildings and lively cafés, Leipzig’s market square has been the city’s vibrant meeting point for centuries. Here, history, culture, and everyday life come together in perfect harmony. ✨

I had the opportunity of visiting the Markt area during Weihnachtsmarkt and you can't get any better than this. The area is bustling with people, several food shops (of course you can try the traditional Glühwein), and much more.

Leipzig is beautiful! I was there at the end of May 2024. Live music on Marktplatz, food, beer. Awesome time.

This museum covers a great deal of former East German history since the end of WW II. It includes the peace prayers movement experienced in Leipzig in the late eighties right before the DDR government opened access to the West for their people in Oct 1989. I highly recommend this museum to anyone who wants to gain a further understanding about what life in East Germany was like under the Soviet regime.

Wow! Garten Zaun Exhibit is more than one would expect. Excellent information & presentation. German & often English. Gets into the political & cultural aspects of having a garden. I spent 3 hours (!) here…went for fresh air & food in order to dive into the second half of the museum: dictatorship & democracy!! Again…amazing presentation & information (can download self-guided App). The space is like IKEA!!! Around each corner MORE great information. Highly recommend. And it’s free!!

Absolutely huge (maybe even too?) exposition - you need at least 2 hours to go through, but it contains a lot of stories and artifacts. Free entrance, lockers and toilet.

Nice free museum. Would get 5 stars but an employee didn't let me take a picture of a certain wall sculpture and I didn't understand why.

Very interesting museum covering life in a divided Germany. I’d recommend 2 hours for a visit. Whilst it’s great that the museum is free, I did not appreciate the interactions with staff in the last 30 minutes of our visit. Their official hours state they close at 6pm, yet we were herded through the last few exhibits by staff at 5:45pm, and outwardly told to leave at 5:50pm. One older employee kept looking at her watch and verbally scolded me for daring to still be there. Very rude and off putting. Change your hours if you don’t want visitors there until 6pm. Standing outside, I saw her practically fly out of the door at 6pm on the dot, racing to wherever she so desperately needed to be! 😂

The temporary and permanent exhibitions both were very interesting providing an interesting view on how Germany mindset was shaped the major events in their recent history. The temporary exhibition was about gardens during the DDR period (but it changes every month, so it might be a different topic by now).

Visited soon after completing a city tour. Perfect followup adding extra context and detail to the tour. This museum is a must visit. Thankyou Leipzig for putting on such a thought provoking and comprehensive exhibit. And it's free!

What an experience I could tell you it takes you through the whole of his life and I learned a lot. There are some amazing things to listen to and see. So I really advise you when you're in Leipzig to visit this museum it's worth the money about 10 euro for a regular ticket.

This museum is very human. Mendelssohn lived in such a large apartment yet the way the museum presents his story makes it feel humble and delicate. Definitely worth a visit for 2 hours at least to take in all the details. One hour is too short I’d say.

Great museum with interactive multi-media installations. We used the audio guides at points of interest that made learning the history of Mendelssohn and his house much more intimate. Don't skip the interactive digital orchestra on the ground floor, it was incredible! Also check out the well-kept garden behind the house.

As a history and classical music lover, this place was on my wish list of what to see in Leipzig. My friend who lives in Leipzig told me it's a really nice fun place and that she went there there at least two times before. Well, she wasn't lying. First impression was a beautiful serene atmosphere, two very kind cashiers who perfectly answered all our questions and well functioning lockers for backpacks. The ground floor was a place for rather interesting conducting simulator which we all really enjoyed and then we went to the upper floors. The whole museum is beautifuly interactive, full of drawers with exhibited objects inside so they don't disturb the authenticity of Felix's floor. One can see there his death mask, replicas of his and his wife's clothes, his painting, a lock of his hair and even take three recipes that Felix himself liked to eat. Then there is Fanny's floor which is slightly more dreamy. It again shows some of the objects she used, a room witha wall full of her compositions a very cute room with a short movie about her life which is really well and beautifuly done and probably a high-light of the whole museum (at least for us silly girls), a room with the Biedermeier clothes which you can take on, then take a picture through a special camera and then download the picture for free on your phone. Well, long Story short, it's a beautiful interesting place with amazing calming atmosphere. Can only recommend.

A beautiful, calming and well-curated museum in the home of the Mendelssohns. The exhibition pieces are interesting and give you an impression of their life and the talents of the children, primarily Felix. There is a handy audio guide plus a clever interactive pieces, including one where you can conduct one of his pieces. I sucked but I'm sure you won't. Ten euros well spent which also helps to preserve this charming space.

My teenage son is into orchestra and so was looking forward to seeing Mendelssohn-Haus. He gives it 5/5 stars, on the scale where Disney World got three stars. It was fun to conduct the virtual orchestra, and lots of good information with the audio tour. There's also antique rooms restored to Mendelssohn time. We ended up there about two hours although to be fair, the rest of us were napping listening to son conduct the symphony music.

Wonderfully interesting and fantastically kept. The music library was astonishing.

Nice place for a walk. Most of the animals are far in the distance. We didn't see much. The farm animals were easier to see. However there was supposed to be riding, but there wasn't. Kids were sad about it, but had fun on the playground.

amazing place. mostly you ll see deers and pigs and owl maybe

Really nice place to walk and relax without streẞenlarm! The animal enclosures are well kept and huge. The WC is super clean and accessible. With a changing table available as well.

Made for an enjoyable, brisk winter walking spot. Would have been nice to see a few more animals but understandably many were sheltering from the cold! Not sure about keeping the owls in such small cages, seemed inhumane

Wildpark Leipzig is a fantastic destination for nature lovers and families, offering a variety of attractions and activities to enjoy. One of the standout features of this park is that it is free to enter, making it accessible to all visitors. The park itself is quite large, with multiple hiking routes that allow visitors to explore the beautiful surroundings at their own pace. Opposite the entrance there’s a small car park. There were sign present for bike to not to enter inside park however I have seen many people ignoring it and going inside with their bike The park is accessible by public transport. However, There’s only one bus route right at the entrance of the park and frequency is less compare to tram. After entering the park on left side you will get a spacious area dedicated to children's play, providing a great space for kids to have fun and burn off some energy. While entry to the park is free, it's worth noting that there are additional charges for certain activities such as camel rides and pony rides. However, these experiences can add an extra element of excitement for those interested. One of the unique aspects of Wildpark Leipzig is the opportunity to observe and interact with various animals. During feeding time, which typically takes place between 3:30 pm and 4:30 pm, some animals like minks and otters can only be seen in action. This creates a special experience for visitors and adds to the park's charm. To further engage with the animals, you can purchase feeding boxes from vending machines in the park. These boxes allow you to feed various species of rams and goats, and they cost exactly 50 cents. Just make sure to bring exact change to use the vending machine. A visit to Wildpark Leipzig wouldn't be complete without exploring the deer and bison enclosures. These majestic animals are a must-see. The park also features several owl enclosures, although some visitors may find the cages to be relatively small compared to the size of the birds. However, seeing these magnificent creatures up close can still be quite fascinating. In addition to the animal exhibits, Wildpark Leipzig boasts a tranquil pond where you can spot a few small tortoises. These gentle creatures add a touch of serenity to the park's atmosphere. If you find yourself needing a break or a bite to eat, there are several restaurants conveniently located in the park, opposite the children's play area. This allows you to relax and recharge before continuing your exploration. Overall, Wildpark Leipzig offers a wonderful experience for visitors of all ages. From its free admission to the opportunity to interact with animals and enjoy outdoor activities, it's a great place to spend a day immersed in nature. Always my wildpark visit ends by looking at the sunset at near by Cospunder see which you can get to pretty easily using public transport or by driving your own car.

A very atmospheric place to be with a number of options to spend your time on and a number of animals to see. A good and mostly free alternative to the city Zoo.

Great zoological park in the south of Leipzig which will cost you nothing at all👍🏾😱 Here you can watch deers, goats, elks, foxes and other small native European animals. Don’t expect lions and those other special like animals. You can find them in the real zoo in Leipzig. 🦉🐗🐐🦌 You can also buy animal food from machines there for just one euro. If you want to chill and have a meal, then checkout the small “Russian” bistro in the park. This one was built during the socialist era when East Germany was a country on it’s own. There is also another small place, where you can have the typical German Bratwurst and other stuff, and a big restaurant, where you might have to pay more.

Schiller lived near hear to take a walk church's garden and inspired to write "Ode to joy" which became lyrics of Beethoven's 9th symphony.

Is nice spot in the city I really like it.

Nice place for inspiration

Beautiful structure

Google cool

Wow, wow, wow

The museum is GREAT! But the attention of the women that sell the tickets is awful, Both with 0 disposition to help tourists, this is my third visit in different months, I like the permanent exposition and the others are great too, but is not a pleasure to arrive and that they receive you with a bad treatment, the people that work in security is the best and they actually help you when you have doubts

The Grasi is now in the process of a transformation, however have decided to leave certain spaces open while working on other sections, this is ensures that the Museum is accessible to the public throughout the process and gives a unique and one-time experience. The Benin Bronzes exhibition is phenomenally curated and made me proud as a Nigerian.

A great place if you’re a music nerd and love period instruments. The renaissance-baroque collection is impressive. The ticketing system is also stuck in the renaissance where you have to pay in cash. Remember to bring guilders.

Second time I'm here, with a year gap inbetween, and it's great to return. Although I had a fast round through the permanent exhibition this time, I still saw some stuff I missed last time, but mainly I enjoyed the current exhibitions, one about Bauhaus in Sachsen and the other about vases. They have a garden and a nice café, so you can really bring a wonderful half a day here and get a lot of inspiring images. Highly recommended

It was one of my most interesting museum visits lately! The museum building is stunning, it houses amazing collections and - most interestingly - is now undergoing a process of reinvention of how they are presented. The effects are really impressive! Highly recommended both for museum geeks as well as regular visitors!

This is my favorite museum in Leipzig!!! Great building, great collection!!! Love it!!! And i can learn a bit of deutsch worte there because not everything is translated in English but i prefer to see things in their original language!!

Nicely presented view of cultures from around the world .

Wonderful park. Great for long or short distance workouts!

A beautiful park very close to the city center. Lakes, bridges and space to meet with friends, not in winter :)

It is a nice, big and clean park. Absolute peace.

A Nice place to relax, hang out with friends and have fun.

Small Spielplatz but we found the lake frozen! We spent a good time there.

No pollution, peaceful and very charming. The perfect place to relax and to let go for a while.

Nice place to walk around

Just had a wonderful stay with Meisterzimmer. We were in Room #3 & #1 and loved both rooms. They are bright, cute & very clean. The interiors are quirky and fun and the proprietor is very helpful. Since we went to Leipzig to visit the galleries in Spinnerei, the location is perfect as it is within the complex. This place is for someone who is a bit more adventurous. There is no elevators so be warned if your suitcase is heavy. 2 flights of stairs later, you get a taste of artsy living & the convenience of being in Spinnerei.

This is one of four rooms you can rent in a former factory in the Plagwitz area of Leipzig. The rooms are artfully done and the industrial feeling is complemented with some nice touches - the ping pong table out in the hall for example. The surrounding area (Spinnerei) is full of artists' workshops and galleries too, making for an interesting excursion even if you don't stay the night. We found the room to be pleasant enough, though the price was a bit high for what was offered: it's not a luxury room by any means; there isn't even an on-site reception, just a phone number to call in emergencies. We had to do that right from the start as the booking hadn't been registered properly. The room we'd asked for hadn't been made up either, so we stayed in another, smaller one. OK, but not ideal. Final point: if you're used to sleeping in the dark then bring some night shades. The room we were in didn't have blinds or curtains of any kind, so it was very bright at night due to the neon light outside our window.

I felt right at home in this apparment. No new furniture, no boring new stuff, but everything used and re-used. If you book please use the option to rent bikes from the apartment. The only other way to rent bikes in Leipzig is via a terrible terrible app called Next Bike. Around the meisterzimmer are plenty of nice shops, places to eat, and lots of green parks. Food is relatively cheap in comparison with the Netherlands. Please read the hidden message in the wooden Red Cross wallcloset....

Spacious and adventorous appartment in an old cotton-mill. Located in one of the 19th century neighbourhoods in the western part of Leipzig. The centre is around twenty minutes from the old city centre. Nice design and with all facilities

Awesome atmosphere, authentic industrial style, all located in one of the most vibrant districts of Leipzig. Highly recommended – a true gem!

Very beautiful location and apartment. Clean. Simply perfect.

Great apartment!

Pretty cool museum, the monument is just amazing

Really nice small museum with theme of battle of Leipzig.

What a waste of time

(Translated by Google) The Museum of the Battle of the Nations near Leipzig is located directly next to the famous Monument to the Battle of the Nations, which, exactly one hundred years after the battle, sought to celebrate the bloody carnage of the Napoleonic Wars as a national triumph. Through war, the Germans – according to the narrative at the time – had freed themselves from the supposedly 'harmful' and humiliating French rule and pushed the French back behind the Rhine. However, a large number of German states – including the Kingdom of Saxony – had fought on Napoleon's side at the time. Therefore, one should visit the museum just to critically assess the monument. The consequences for Leipzig and the surrounding area – and this is the focus of the museum – were disastrous. It is less about the strategies of the generals and statesmen than about the suffering of the ordinary soldiers, the Leipzig urban population, and the destruction of the villages surrounding Leipzig. Fortunately, there is no trace of soldierly heroism or national glorification here. The very small exhibition deals with the largest battle in world history up to that point. At least 500,000 soldiers took part in it between October 16 and 19, 1813 – British, Prussians, Russians, Swedes, Saxons, French, Poles, and many others. One in five soldiers would not survive those days. Uniforms, weapons, and pictures are on display. At the center is a diorama with soldier figures. The scene shows Prussian and Russian soldiers attacking the village of Probstheida, held by 8,000 French men, on October 18, 1813. The village lies not far from today's Völkerschlachtdenkmal (Battle of the Nations Monument) on the strategically important road from Leipzig to Grimma. The Prussian soldiers repeatedly advanced in several waves into the village center, but were shot down by French rifle fire, as Napoleon's infantry found cover behind the village's many walls. Within hours, some Prussian units lost nearly half their men. Sixteen of the village's 35 farms went up in flames during the fighting due to heavy artillery fire. Only a few fragments of the village church's walls remained. Field hospitals were set up in sheltered locations. Small wagons were also available to transport the wounded, and tents could even be erected. Nevertheless, medical care descended into complete chaos and could barely keep up with the large number of injured and dying that could be found. The hospitals were hopelessly overcrowded. As a result, epidemics such as typhus ravaged the village population well into the following year. Field doctors usually resorted to the "cure-all" of amputating arms or legs. Those who survived the dangerous procedure without infection became disabled "cripples" who had to resort to begging. Overall, however, more than just human deaths occurred during the Battle of Leipzig. Over 1,000 horses, 3,000 cattle, 10,000 sheep, and nearly 4,000 pigs also died. Grain supplies and household goods were often stolen or burned. The city of Leipzig itself, with its then 33,000 inhabitants, was spared from fire and murder, but had to accommodate and feed Napoleonic soldiers – a heavy burden on the population. Due to the increasing anti-French hostility, Napoleon's city commander was forced to establish a guard consisting of merchants and small traders. (Original) Das Museum zur Völkerschlacht bei Leipzig liegt direkt neben dem berühmten Völkerschlachtdenkmal, welches genau einhundert Jahre nach der Schlacht das blutige Gemetzel der napoleonischen Kriege als nationalen Triumph feiern wollte. Durch Krieg hätten sich die Deutschen - so die damalige Erzählung - von der angeblich so 'schädlichen' und demütigenden französischen Fremdherrschaft befreit und die Franzosen hinter den Rhein zurückgedrängt. Nur: Eine große Zahl der deutschen Staaten - auch das Königreich Sachsen - hatten damals auf der Seite Napoleons gekämpft. Von daher sollte man das Museum schon zur kritischen Einordnung des Denkmals besuchen. Die Folgen für Leipzig und das Umland waren nämlich - darauf liegt der Schwerpunkt des Museums - verhängnisvoll. Es geht weniger um die Strategien der Feldherren und Staatsmänner, sondern um das Leid der einfachen Soldaten, die Leipziger Stadtbevölkerung und die Zerstörung der Dörfer rund um Leipzig. Von soldatischem Heroismus und nationaler Verklärung ist hier zum Glück nichts zu spüren. Die sehr kleine Ausstellung befasst sich mit der bis dahin größten Schlacht der Weltgeschichte. Mindestens 500.000 Soldaten nahmen an ihr zwischen dem 16. und 19. Oktober 1813 teil - Briten, Preußen, Russen, Schweden, Sachsen, Franzosen, Polen, und viele weitere. Jeder fünfte Soldat sollte diese Tage nicht überleben. Zu sehen sind Uniformen, Waffen und Bilder. Im Zentrum steht ein Diorama mit Soldatenfiguren. Die Szene zeigt, wie preußische und russische Soldaten das von 8.000 französischen Männern gehaltene Dorf Probstheida am 18. Oktober 1813 angreifen. Der Ort liegt unweit vom heutigen Völkerschlachtdenkmal auf der strategisch wichtigen Straße von Leipzig nach Grimma. Die preußischen Soldaten stießen in mehreren Wellen immer wieder ins Dorfzentrum vor, wurden dort aber vom französischen Gewehrfeuer niedergeschossen, denn die Infanteristen Napoleons fanden hinter den vielen Mauern des Dorfes Deckung. Innerhalb von Stunden verloren hier manche preußischen Einheiten annähernd die Hälfte ihrer Kämpfer. 16 der 35 Gehöfte des Dorfes gingen während der Kämpfe in Flammen auf, bedingt durch den heftigen Artilleriebeschuss. Von der Dorfkirche blieben nur einzelne Mauerreste übrig. An geschützten Stellen wurden zwar Feldlazarette aufgeschlagen. Es existierten auch kleine Wagen zum Transport von Verwundeten, auch Zelte konnten errichtet werden. Trotzdem versank die medizinische Versorgung völlig im Chaos und kam den vielen auffindbaren Verletzten und Sterbenden kaum hinterher. Die Lazarette waren hoffnungslos überfüllt. Noch bis ins nächste Jahr hinein wüteten daher Seuchen wie Typhus die Bevölkerung in den Dörfern dahin. Die Feldärzte griffen in der Regel zum 'Allheilmittel' der Amputation von Armen oder Beinen. Wer die gefährliche Prozedur ohne Infektion überlebte, wurde zum arbeitsunfähigen 'Krüppel', der betteln gehen musste. Insgesamt starben während der Schlacht bei Leipzig aber nicht nur Menschen. Auch über 1.000 Pferde, 3.000 Rinder, 10.000 Schafe und fast 4.000 Schweine kamen zu Tode. Getreidevorräte und Hausrat wurde oftmals gestohlen oder verbrannte. Die Stadt Leipzig selbst mit ihren damals 33.000 Einwohnern blieb zwar von Feuer und Morden verschont, musste aber napoleonische Soldaten bei sich aufnehmen und diese verpflegen - eine schwere Belastung für die Bevölkerung. Wegen der sich häufenden antifranzösischen Anfeindungen musste Napoleons Stadtkommandant eine aus Kaufleuten und Kleinhändlern bestehende Garde aufstellen.

Curiously off the beaten path. The click absorbs the subs rays and then glows changing colors, rotating clockwise between the spectrum of colors every 30 seconds or so.

Sitting on my Ranch, eating my Lunch, I thought about Life... and suddenly: BOOM! Crazy how fast the Clock went, 5 Star-Speed and woooooooooooooooooooosh I was happy, if YOU thought LCD is colourful, LOOK AT THIS CLOCK, there is no limit, up in the sky it goes TICK and TOCK and RED and BLUE and woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooh. And if you don't believe me.... something like 29+15 years ago a guy named Freddy M. wrote about his life thinking about this clock those lines: "I'm burning through the sky, yeah Two hundred degrees, that's why they call me Mister Fahrenheit I'm travelling at the speed of light I wanna make a supersonic man outta you"

perfect clock for pride month (and it's always pride month in my heart)

Wow what can I say. This clock knocked my socks off and I don’t think I will see the world the same way again. Thank you crazy clock keep being you.

As a former professional clocksmith, I can say: This is a fine example of a clock!

Very well kept, old place. Shops are elite, buildings simply heavenly and the very big christmas market here was very welcoming. Very close to the central station which was handy for us since we were only there on a day trip.

At its northern end stands the baroque old stock exchange, in front of it there is the statue of the young Johann Wolfgang von Goethe in a small green area. The lion fountain is located on the southern edge of the square. To the east, the square is bordered by the Handelshof, which is now home to the Steigenberger Grand Hotel. The square used to be used for trading foodstuffs. Today it serves as an outdoor restaurant for a restaurant in the warmer half of the year, and the Medieval Christmas market is traditionally held here before Christmas.

I was visiting Leipzig with my girlfriend for a few days and asked my curator friend at the GfZK about where to stay, and the Paris Syndrome was his immediate recommendation. I wanted to have a special trip and this space made it possible. Great decorations, beautiful atmosphere, fun cool vibes, kind and friendly staff; all top quality in a small unique space. Feels like one of a kind with the little details and design choices, even if you aren’t an artist you enjoy it

(Translated by Google) These are two former studio rooms that have been converted into a hotel in the form of art. Living in an art object is something very special and a great experience. The disadvantage: breakfast consists of a cup of coffee and a croissant. Continental breakfast in its most minimal form... That's a bit small. Breakfast also takes place in a public cafe, so a walk outside is necessary. It's a shame that the rooms apparently remain unrented and unheated in winter...it took about three days to achieve a comfortable temperature even on the lower level. Nevertheless, an unusual and special accommodation that I will happily enjoy again. (Original) Es handelt sich um zwei ehemalige Atelierräume, die in Form von Kunst als Hotel ausgebaut wurden. Das Wohnen in einem Kunst Objekt ist schon was sehr Besonderes und ein tolles Erlebnis.. Der Nachteil: das Frühstück besteht im einer Tasse Kaffee und einem Croissant. Kontinentales Frühstück in seiner minimalsten Form.. Das ist doch etwas wenig. Frühstück findet auch in einem öffentlichen Cafe statt, also ist ein Fußweg durch das Freie nötig. Schade ist, dass die Räume im Winter offenbar unvermietet auch unbeheizt bleiben..es dauerte etwa drei Tage, um eine angenehme Temperatur auch in der unteren Ebene zu erzielen. Trotzdem eine ungewöhnliche und besondere Unterbringung, die ich gerne wieder genießen werde.

We had a great stay at Paris Syndrome, it was such a well designed and curated space —it added so much to our experience in Leipzig! Our dear friend Simon had recommended the place and I’m so glad we took his advice. It’s a small, cozy, and really artsy hotel with only two rooms designed by artists with unique tastes; that’s why it felt like a boutique experience. As an artist myself I specially liked the atmosphere and hand selected design elements in the rooms. It’s a definite source of inspiration so if you are an any kind of creative I suggest you check it out — we can’t wait to come back! Also don’t miss out on the GfZK nearby if you’re staying at Paris Syndrome, it’s just around the corner and one of the best art centers / galleries we visited during our trip. Really friendly & knowledgeable staff and interesting exhibitions, in a beautifully designed glass building. Thanks to the Paris Syndrome & GfZK I got to have the artsy getaway I needed in Leipzig, and got back to New Jersey with a renewed creative energy 🥳

(Translated by Google) We were curious about staying in a work of art, but we were struck by the Paris syndrome of the Paris syndrome. The design is great, there's a lot to explore, but unfortunately, it wasn't very clean, and we found it inconvenient that there were no blackout blinds. What really bothered us was that the drain made a very loud, waterfall-like noise at regular intervals. The location was great, and the bakery around the corner was quite unusual, so you need to be patient while waiting in line, but you're rewarded with delicious baked goods. (Original) Wir waren neugierig darauf, in einem Kunstwerk zu übernachten, aber uns hat das Paris Syndrom im Paris Syndrom ereilt. Das Design ist top, es gibt viel zu entdecken, nur leider war es nicht sehr sauber und wir empfanden es als unpraktisch, dass man nichts abdunkeln konnte. Was uns richtig gestört hat, war, dass der Abfluss in regelmäßigen Abständen ein sehr lautes, wasserfallartiges Geräusch von sich gegeben hat. Die Lage war toll, die Bäckerei um die Ecke ganz außergewöhnlich und daher braucht man Geduld beim Anstehen, die aber mit leckersten Backwaren belohnt wird.
