Leipzig
Discover opera in Leipzig!
As a musical city par excellence, Leipzig is perfect for you! Attending an opera at the Oper Leipzig and a concert by the Gewandhausorchester is a must for all music lovers.
What to do in Leipzig ?
Leipzig is a beautiful city to discover before your musical evening at the Oper Leipzig!
The city is the birthplace of some of the greatest composers of classical music. Explore the historic sites that inspired these musical geniuses, such as St Thomas's Church, where Bach worked as choirmaster, or the Leipzig Opera House, where Mendelssohn conducted his unforgettable works.
See the old town hall, the Altes Rathaus, on the market square. Visit the Neues Rathaus, the new town hall, located on the site of the former Pleissenburg fortress. Its 114-metre-high tower is the tallest town hall tower in Germany! This building is well worth a visit.
Explore the Albertina university library! Dating back to 1891 and destroyed by bombing, it was rebuilt in the 1990s. This palace dedicated to books boasts astonishing architecture and interior decoration!
Finally, check out the Goerdeler Denkma, a monument erected in memory of Goerdeler, mayor of Leipzig and resistance fighter executed by the Reich in 1945. This five-metre-deep well houses a bell that rings several times a day. At night, a column of light bursts from it!
