Leipzig

Leipzig is located in the heart of the Leipzig Basin in the state of Saxony and is the largest city in Saxony as well as one of Germany’s more renowned cities. The city’s urban areas and suburbs are filled with lush linden trees, and the great poet Goethe adored the place, calling it "Little Paris."

Leipzig has clean streets and a thriving commercial scene, and it is internationally renowned as a city of expos, books, and music. International fairs are held here every spring and autumn, and there are often open-air concerts in the summer. This vibrant city has a highly developed tourism industry, with numerous destinations waiting to be explored by visitors from around the world. Must-see attractions include the Old Town Hall, the New Town Hall, the German National Library, St. Thomas Church, the Bach Museum, the Grassi Museum, St. Nicholas Church, the Monument to the Battle of the Nations, and Augustusplatz.

Strolling through Leipzig’s dreamlike old town alleys, you’ll find bookstores and antique shops at every turn, along with fashionable clothing stores and charming boutiques. And if you hear a beautiful melody in the air, it’s no surprise — this is Leipzig, the City of Music.
