Leipzig has always been one of Germany’s most important and dynamic cities. Its trade fairs have a tradition dating back to the Middle Ages and its cultural live was always influencing the rest of the country, especially since industrialization.

 

During the communist years Leipzig was one of the leading cities concerning trade and cultural life as well. Here the famous “Monday demonstrations” started the peaceful revolution of 1989, which ended with the fall of the Berlin wall.
