Thomas Cook City Spot Guide Leipzig
Ref: TCCS033
"Cityspots Leipzig" takes you straight to the heart of the self-proclaimed City of Music. The twentieth century was not kind to Leipzig, but this resurgent city has bounced-back and reclaimed its rightful place as one of Germany's most attractive and dynamic cities. Leipzig highlights include: The impressive Thomaskirche, where Bach played the organ and where he is buried; the Bach Museum containing original manuscripts; Schumann House, the home of the famous composer and Mendelssohn house; exploring the old city centre with its wonderful Baroque and Renaissance churches; sipping coffee and sampling Sachertorte in the best coffee houses in Germany; the sobering Museum in der Runden Ecke contains exhibits of the Stasi, communist East Germany's secret police; and, eating traditional Saxon cuisine in Auerbachs Keller.
This work is perfect for pleasure-seeking city breakers wanting to quickly pinpoint the city's most entertaining highlights and decide what to see and do in a limited time.
