Leipzig has a worldwide reputation as a city for music lovers; it is home to one of the world’s great orchestras, the Gewandhaus, and to the St.Thomas’s Boys Choir who sing almost every week in the church where Bach was Cantor. Bach lived and worked here and the fascinating museum which is dedicated to the life and work of the composer is well worth a visit. The city was also home to Mendelssohn and Robert Schumann and Wagner was born here. The charming city centre is compact with the Old Town Hall, St. Thomas Church, St. Nicholas Church, museums and galleries all within easy walking distance of our hotels
