Although the famous composer lived in Leipzig some 300 years ago, you will encounter Johann Sebastian Bach on almost every corner of this German city. From monumental statues and the historic churches for which he composed music, to the Bach Archive, his portraits in local museums, and the very locations where he once lived and worked. Even today, Bach remains omnipresent in Leipzig, his music echoing through the streets. From regular concerts organised across the city to classical music drifting from the speakers at the main train station, and even a public piano waiting to be played there, Bach’s timeless compositions provide the perfect soundtrack to your visit.
