The Mädler Passage offers what few buildings can, by bringing to life so impressively the architectural and historical grandeur of the renowned exhibition hub and trading centre that is Leipzig City. The history of this most significant of arcades was mostly shaped by two forward-thinking Leipzig business men, Dr. Heinrich Stromer von Auerbach and Anton Mädler, who succeeded in making the arcade the world-famous attraction it is today. Both men moulded the building in their own way and in their own era.
In 1525, Stromer von Auerbach, rector of Leipzig University, opened a wine bar in the Waldheim-Hummelhain courtyard. And because the business was so successful, he decided, five years later, to build the stately “Auerbach’s Hof” (or “Auberbach’s Courtyard”) exhibition hall in the same place. The existing cellar vaults were maintained and further used as a wine parlour.
In 1625, for the location’s 100-year anniversary, a relative of Stromer von Auerbach, council member Johann Vetzer, commissioned the restructuring of the exhibition hall. He wanted to create a new attraction in the wine cellar and hired the painter Andreas Brettschneider to produce two murals portraying the legend of Dr. Faustus. One panel features Faustus riding away upon a wine cask. The other shows him drinking with students in a Leipzig tavern. These paintings were dated “1525” in reference to the year these word-of-mouth events took place, and they became forevermore associated with Auerbach’s Cellar. This afforded the establishment increased notoriety which turned into global fame thanks to Goethe’s Faust. www.maedlerpassage.de/en/history/
Leipzig is the largest city in the federal state of Saxony, Germany. It lies at the confluence of the White Elster, Pleisse, and Parthe rivers at the southerly end of the North German Plain.
Leipzig has been a trade city since at least the time of the Holy Roman Empire. The city sits at the intersection of the Via Regia and Via Imperii, two important Medieval trade routes. Leipzig was once one of the major European centres of learning and culture in fields such as music and publishing. Leipzig became a major urban centre within the German Democratic Republic (East Germany) after World War II, but its cultural and economic importance declined despite East Germany being the richest economy in the Soviet Bloc.
Leipzig later played a significant role in instigating the fall of communism in Eastern Europe, through events, which took place in and around St. Nicholas Church. Since the reunification of Germany, Leipzig has undergone significant change with the restoration of some historical buildings, the demolition of others, and the development of a modern transport infrastructure. Leipzig today is an economic centre and the city in Germany with the highest quality of life, according to the GfK marketing research institution. Oper Leipzig is one of the most prominent opera houses in Germany.

Faust is the protagonist of a classic German legend. He is a scholar who is highly successful yet dissatisfied with his life, which leads him to make a pact with the Devil, exchanging his soul for unlimited knowledge and worldly pleasures. Wikipedia
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe's Faust is a tragic play in two parts usually known in English as Faust, Part One and Faust, Part Two. Although rarely staged in its entirety, it is the play with the largest audience numbers on German-language stages. Faust is Goethe's magnum opus and considered by many to be one of the greatest works of German literature.
The earliest forms of the work, known as the Urfaust, were developed between 1772 and 1775; however, the details of that development are not entirely clear. Urfaust has twenty-two scenes, one in prose, two largely prose and the remaining 1,441 lines in rhymed verse. The manuscript is lost, but a copy was discovered in 1886.
The first appearance of the work in print was Faust, a Fragment, published in 1790. Goethe completed a preliminary version of what is now known as Part One in 1806. Its publication in 1808 was followed by the revised 1828–29 edition, the last to be edited by Goethe himself.
Goethe finished writing Faust Part Two in 1831. In contrast to Faust Part One, the focus here is no longer on the soul of Faust, which has been sold to the devil, but rather on social phenomena such as psychology, history and politics, in addition to mystical and philosophical topics. The second part formed the principal occupation of Goethe's last years. It appeared only posthumously in 1832. For more information about the plays, see: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Goethe%27s_Faust

Leipzig can look back on a long and historically notable past. The town came into existence about 1000 years ago at the intersection between the most important trade routes. Many significant events will always be associated with the name of Leipzig.
For example, the Reformation began in 1539 with Martin Luther's sermon in St. Thomas Church, and the decisive battle against Napoleon also took place in Leipzig in 1813. And the autumn of 1989, which was recorded in history as the Peaceful Revolution, saw key events take place in and around St. Nicholas Church.
There is much to discover in Leipzig - its university, for example: one of the oldest in Germany, where Richard Wagner, Karl Liebknecht and Johann Wolfgang von Goethe studied, or that the first daily newspaper in the world was published here. And every year Leipzig is the scene for many festivals, events and trade fairs, attracting millions of visitors to the city.

Am 6. Juli 2018 präsentierte sich Leipzig bei sommerlichen 28 Grad Celsius und strahlendem Sonnenschein. Ein leichter Wind sorgte für angenehme Frische, was ideale Bedingungen für Erkundungen der Stadt und ihrer Umgebung bot.
Leipzig, erstmals 1015 als „urbs Libzi“ urkundlich erwähnt, entwickelte sich im Mittelalter zu einem bedeutenden Handelszentrum. Die Stadt erhielt 1165 das Stadtrecht und wurde durch ihre Lage an der Kreuzung wichtiger Handelsstraßen, der Via Regia und der Via Imperii, zu einem wichtigen Messeplatz. Die Leipziger Messe, deren Ursprünge bis ins 12. Jahrhundert zurückreichen, trug wesentlich zur wirtschaftlichen Bedeutung der Stadt bei.
Ein zentrales historisches Bauwerk ist die Thomaskirche, deren Ursprünge im 12. Jahrhundert liegen. Der heutige Bau entstand im 15. Jahrhundert im gotischen Stil. Berühmtheit erlangte die Kirche durch Johann Sebastian Bach, der hier von 1723 bis zu seinem Tod 1750 als Thomaskantor wirkte. Sein Grab befindet sich seit 1950 in der Kirche.
Die Nikolaikirche, erstmals 1165 erwähnt, wurde im Laufe der Jahrhunderte mehrfach umgebaut und erhielt im 18. Jahrhundert ihre heutige klassizistische Innenausstattung. In den 1980er Jahren wurde die Kirche zum Ausgangspunkt der Friedlichen Revolution in der DDR, als hier regelmäßig Friedensgebete stattfanden.
Das Alte Rathaus am Markt, erbaut 1556/57 im Stil der Renaissance, zählt zu den bedeutendsten Bauwerken dieser Epoche in Deutschland. Es diente bis 1905 als Sitz des Stadtrates und beherbergt heute das Stadtgeschichtliche Museum. Der Marktplatz selbst war über Jahrhunderte Zentrum des städtischen Lebens und Schauplatz der Leipziger Messe.
Die Mädlerpassage, eine der bekanntesten Einkaufspassagen Leipzigs, wurde 1912–1914 im Stil des Historismus erbaut. Sie beherbergt unter anderem das traditionsreiche Auerbachs Keller, das durch Goethes „Faust“ literarische Berühmtheit erlangte.
Das Völkerschlachtdenkmal, eingeweiht 1913, erinnert an die Völkerschlacht bei Leipzig im Oktober 1813, bei der Napoleon eine entscheidende Niederlage erlitt. Mit einer Höhe von 91 Metern zählt es zu den größten Denkmälern Europas. Im Inneren befinden sich eine Krypta und eine Ruhmeshalle.
Leipzig ist von zahlreichen Parks und Gewässern durchzogen, die zur Erholung einladen. Der Clara-Zetkin-Park, benannt nach der Politikerin und Frauenrechtlerin, entstand 1955 durch die Zusammenlegung mehrerer Parkanlagen und erstreckt sich entlang des Elsterflutbeckens. Er beherbergt unter anderem den Musikpavillon, in dem regelmäßig Konzerte stattfinden.
Der Leipziger Auwald, einer der größten innerstädtischen Auwälder Europas, erstreckt sich entlang der Flüsse Elster, Pleiße und Luppe. Er bietet Lebensraum für zahlreiche Tier- und Pflanzenarten, darunter Eisvögel, Biber und verschiedene Orchideenarten. Der Auwald ist durch ein Netz von Wander- und Radwegen erschlossen.
Der Botanische Garten der Universität Leipzig, gegründet 1542, ist einer der ältesten botanischen Gärten Deutschlands. Er beherbergt rund 10.000 Pflanzenarten aus aller Welt und dient sowohl der Forschung als auch der Erholung.
Der Cospudener See, ein ehemaliger Braunkohletagebau, wurde in den 1990er Jahren geflutet und zu einem Naherholungsgebiet umgestaltet. Er bietet Möglichkeiten zum Baden, Segeln und Wandern. Ein Aussichtsturm ermöglicht einen weiten Blick über die Seenlandschaft.
Leipzig vereint historische Architektur, kulturelle Vielfalt und naturnahe Erholungsmöglichkeiten und ist ein bedeutendes Ziel für Städtereisende.

Украшением площади Нашмаркт в Лейпциге служит фонтан Лёвенбрюннен (Loewenbrunnen), или «Львиный фонтан», расположенный почти напротив входа в Галерею Медлера (Maedlerpassage).
Фонтан был построен в 1918 году известным берлинским скульптором Иоганном Готфридом Шадовом (Johann Gottfried Schadow). У Львиного фонтана уже было несколько предшественников. Первый фонтан на площади Нашмаркт был установлен в 1690 году. О нём известно, что он был сооружен из песчаника и его украшали фигуры мифических морских существ.
