Leipzig is the largest city in the federal state of Saxony and a major economic, cultural, scientific, and transport center in Germany. Leipzig was founded more than 1000 years ago. The city honors its rich historical past while developing dynamically. Leipzig is often called the "city of fairs" because it hosts numerous gastronomic fairs and the Leipzig Book Fair, the second largest book fair in the world after Frankfurt. The city is also known for its first-class operas and classical music concerts.

Traditionally for German cities, Leipzig's main attractions are concentrated in the historical center. The most impressive architectural monument in Leipzig Market Square is the Old Town Hall, built in 1556 in the Renaissance style. The facade of the Town Hall is decorated with arcades, six pediments, and a baroque tower. The building of the Old Town Hall now houses the Leipzig Museum of City History, with interesting exhibitions dedicated to the formation and development of the city from the early Middle Ages to the present day. Behind the Old Town Hall is the beautiful baroque building of the Old Stock Exchange.

The city's main religious monument is the Gothic St. Thomas Church, built in the 12th century and famous throughout the world for its "boys’ choir", which was personally led by the world-famous composer Johann Sebastian Bach for 27 years. There is a monument to Bach on the grounds of the temple, and the legendary maestro is buried here. Another important place of worship in Leipzig is the St. Nicholas Church, whose foundation dates back to the second half of the 12th century. This is the largest and oldest cathedral in Leipzig.

An important historical monument in the city is the monument dedicated to the Battle of the Nations, when Napoleon I Bonaparte was defeated by the allied armies of Russia, Austria, Prussia, and Sweden. The height of the monument reaches more than 100 meters. There is an observation deck at its top with panoramic views of Leipzig and its surroundings.
