It was here where Martin Luther lived and preached, and on October 31, 1517, he nailed his 95 Theses to the door of the Castle Church. The Protestant Reformation had begun. Sometimes called the “Rome of the Protestants”, many Luther memorial sites were added to the UNESCO world heritage list in 1996.

Narrow streets, hidden courtyards, magnificent passages - this is Leipzig's city center. Even in the Middle Ages there were countless passages and courtyards around the market square. Leipzig was the scene of illustrious goods fairs: traders from all over Europe came to the city twice a year. The hustle and bustle of the trade fair also attracted jugglers, quacks and charlatans.
With the start of the sample fairs at the end of the 19th century, the first exhibition halls were built. The commercial goods were no longer sold, but were issued as samples. In a short time, elegant trade fair palaces such as the Städtisches Kaufhaus, Specks Hof and the famous Mädlerpassage were built.
