Karl-Heine canal

In the middle of the 19th century, the decision was made to connect Leipzig to the waterway network by means of a canal from the Elster to the Saale - a plan that has not been fully implemented to this day. However, the 2 mile long section through the Plagwitz district in the west of Leipzig, named "Karl Heine Canal" after the man who came up with the idea, is today a cultural monument of a special kind. On foot, by bike or by boat, you can marvel at the brick buildings of the Plagwitz industrial quarter, most of which are now in new use, as well as the Wilhelminian architecture along the banks.

Störmthal and "its" lake

In 1723, Bach's first official journey as Thomaskantor took him to the small village of Störmthal in the south of Leipzig to test a new organ - which he inaugurated a short time later with a specially composed cantata. Today, this organ is one of the few Bach organs largely preserved in its original condition. Lignite was mined right next to the village in the 20th century. Today, the opencast mine has been replaced by Lake Störmthal ("Störmthaler See"), on the western shore of which the new "Johann Sebastian Bach Forest" is currently growing on 72 acres.
