More from life

Leipzig can look back on a long tradition as a cultural and trading metropolis. Leipzig is cosmopolitan, welcoming and modern: from A for Auenwald to Z for zoo, the city offers numerous destinations for excursions as well as restaurants, bars and cafés, cultural and educational institutions. The enormous bathing lakes at the edges of the city are a symbol of the high quality of life. No wonder that the population of Leipzig has grown continuously in recent years. 600,000 people now live in the city.​
