90 minutes Leipzig exclusively: exhibition halls, courtyards and passages

Narrow alleys, hidden courtyards, magnificent passages - that is Leipzig's city center. Even in the Middle Ages, there were countless commercial courtyards around the market square. Leipzig was the scene of colorful trade fairs: two or three times a year, not only traders from all over Europe came to the city. Jugglers, quacks and charlatans also sought their fortune. With the start of the sample fairs at the end of the 19th century, the first trade fair buildings were built. The goods were no longer sold, but exhibited as samples. In a short time, impressive trade fair palaces were built such as the Municipal Department Store, Specks Hof or the famous Mädlerpassage.
