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.

Definitely a must do if you are visiting Leipzig. This arcade was built by Anton Madler 1912-13 and due to the popularity of the famous "Auerbachs Keller" below it, it was decided to incorporate it in the design. there is a statue of Faust at the entrance to the Keller. Tradition is that if you rub the foot of Faust you will one day return there. The food in Auerbachs is goo and well worth eating there. Great specialist shops in the "passage" in particular the wine and spirit shop. What is also worth doing is is the tour to the rooms that are closed to the public. Auerbachs Keller dates to the 1700's but there are rooms that date back to 1530 and a couple in which Martin Luther hid in, while avoiding the Catholic Church. Through another door and down some stairs will take yo back to the 1300's to a little cellar. Eerie.

a very modern and beautiful station, with good connections. From that station I went to Prague. It has interesting shops, you can have a coffee or something to eat, it is steps from trams, I remember buying a suitcase to go to Berlin
