Leipzig is the largest city in the Free State of Saxony, an important trade fair city, home to Germany's second-oldest university after Heidelberg (Alma Mater Lipsiensis), and a major centre of cultural creativity, particularly in the field of music. Johann Sebastian Bach and Felix Mendelssohn Bartholdy worked here. In the Nikolaikirche, built in 1165 and the city's landmark, Bach performed his St John Passion for the first time on Good Friday 1724. The Monday prayers held in this church were the starting point in 1989 for the peaceful demonstrations against the GDR regime, which ultimately led to the fall of the Wall and German reunification. Another significant sacred building is the Thomaskirche, the burial place of Johann Sebastian Bach. The Thomanerchor, based here, as well as the Gewandhausorchester, which alongside the Gewandhaus and the Leipzig Opera also calls the Thomaskirche home, both enjoy worldwide renown.
The Völkerschlachtdenkmal in Leipzig commemorates the decisive battle of the Wars of Liberation against Napoleon in October 1813, which, with 600,000 soldiers involved, is considered the largest battle in world history up until the beginning of the 20th century.
The Leipziger Markt with the Altes Rathaus is the heart of the old town and one of the most magnificent market squares in all of Germany, where the world-famous Leipziger Weihnachtsmarkt takes place every year. Directly opposite is the Mädler-Passage, which was lavishly restored after German reunification by the scandal-plagued construction magnate Jürgen Schneider. Here you can also stop in at Auerbachs Keller, Leipzig's second-oldest inn, where Johann Wolfgang von Goethe often caroused late into the night during his student days in Leipzig, and to which he later brought worldwide fame through the scene in Faust. "We feel as cannibalistically well as five hundred sows!"
It's clear, then, that people have felt at home in Leipzig since time immemorial. For those who still wish to travel onward, major transport hubs are available: Leipzig/Halle Airport, Germany's second-largest airport by freight volume, and in particular Leipzig Hauptbahnhof, Europe's largest terminus station after Zurich — both of which remain in visitors' memories as Leipzig's calling card and are themselves already a tourist attraction.
Among Leipzig's well-known sons and daughters are Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz, Richard Wagner, Clara Schumann, Karl Liebknecht, Walter Ulbricht, Annemarie Renger, Gisela Uhlen, Mike Leckebusch, Frank Schöbel, Till Lindemann, Inka Bause, Utta Danella, Rolf Becker, Simone Thomalla, Heiko Thieme, Kristin Otto, Sebastian Krumbiegel and Bill Kaulitz.
