It’s always hard to fill the shoes of someone who used to do your job very well. If you’re the choirmaster at St. Thomas Church in Leipzig, guess whose shoes you have to fill? Bach’s. (No pressure.) Leipzig is closely connected to classical music—Wagner was born here, and Mendelssohn established a conservatory here in 1843. If you’re more of a melancholy, contemporary type, visit during the Wave-Gotik-Treffen, billed as the world’s largest "dark" (Goth, industrial, punk, etc.) music festival.

Due to construction works the Arabian Coffee Tree Museum is temporarily closed. Germany’s oldest cafe is located in the heart of Leipzig’s historic city centre. Since 1711, coffee, the Saxons’ favourite drink, has been served here. The house takes its name “THE ARABIC COFFEE TREE” from the extraordinary building emblem on its facade. In the historic rooms of the cafe on the ground floor, the visitor can see where many famous guests once sat - and can imagine them being there. The Cafe Francais, the Viennese cafe and an Arabic coffee shop will get you into the right mood for your visit to the museum on the upper floors. More than 500 exhibits convey an impression of the outstanding highlights and characteristic peculiarities of Saxon coffee culture.

A gourmet food shop located on Neumarkt.
A small shop with a large selection of dolls: great for the travelers with picky children on their gift list.
