Leipzig is often pegged as one of Germany's trendiest cities, but it's also one of its most historic. Your holiday accommodation here, whether a contemporary apartment or in grand altbau style, places you near superb museums and exciting contemporary culture in streets trodden since the Medieval Ages.
Authentic German and world flavours
Auerbachs Keller was established in 1525 and remains one of the most famous restaurants in Germany. Saxon meals are served in the restaurant's Großer Keller, while the Historische Weinstuben offers elegant German dishes. Book ahead to enjoy a hearty repast in this historic location.
In the heart of Saxony, tuck into some authentic Korean at Tobagi. For a coffee, head to Zum Arabischen Coffe Baum, Germany's oldest coffeehouse. More than 300 years since its founding, its marzipan pastries are still sublime.
History and art
You'll find the Romanesque and Neoclassical 12th century Nikolaikirche, Leipzig's most famous church, right in the city centre. The church's weekly Monday peace prayers once inspired the locals to instigate a non-violent protest against the East German government, precipitating its downfall.
The Museum der Bildenden Kunste is an impressive glass structure housing a vast collection of paintings dating from the 15th century to the present. Enjoy the work of Cranach, Monet, Munch, and more in bright and beautiful surroundings.
Cultural landmarks
Don't miss the Stasi Museum, a fascinating insight into the GDR years, operating in the city's former Stasi headquarters. Take a look at propaganda posters, surveillance techniques, and more in the historic so-called 'Runde Ecke'.
At Mendelssohn-Haus, visitors enjoy a thrilling insight into one of Germany's most important composers, Felix Mendelssohn Bartholdy. A pivotal musician of the Romantic age, Mendelssohn was also director of the Leipzig Gewandhausorchester. Here you can visit the carefully restored flat where his family resided during the last years of his life.
