Leipzig is known the world over for its cultural and arts scene - experience the celebrated Gewandhausorchester or the internationally known Thomanerchor live! This is from where the avant garde of the "Leipziger Schule" conquered the world's collections and museums. The galleries in the former cotton spinning mills continue to set new art trends.

Located in the heart of Europe, the city and Leipziger Messe offer an excellent infrastructure and excellent connections to global transportation networks.
