ReligionAlthough there are many churches within Leipzig, religion does not play a big role in Leipzig due to its socialistic past. Traditionally, Leipzig has been Protestant since the reformation.
History
Leipzig was founded in 1165 by Otto II, Margrave of Meissen. During that time the two big churches St. Thomas Church and St. Nicolas Church were build. In 1409 University of Leipzig was founded which is one of the oldest universities in Germany. Since the end of the 15th century Leipzig developed fairs which made Leipzig one of the most important emporiums until World War II. During World War II approx. 60% of the inner city of Leipzig were destroyed. After World War II Leipzig was part of the Soviet Zone and became part of the GDR. Due to that the international importance of Leipzig diminished. However, it was still one of the biggest and most potent cities in the GDR. In 1989 people came together in Leipzig St. Nicolas Church in order to demonstrate against GDR rules. What started as a small gathering became a big movement which was one of the courses that led to the opening of the German Wall.Since then Leipzig has tried to recover and has build a young start up scene. However, the city has still approx. 15% unemployed people.

Hotel reviews for hotels in Leipzig
For a night looking for a hotel in Leipzig. Four stars Ramada city center booked. Hotel without pool sauna without any leisure facilities. 'sky bar' a sad joke! On the contrary, a sitting area with a bar, the nth the front desk is served. Very very sad. Rooms and unlovingly. Bathrooms are small. For 120 euros per night in the double room including breakfast we expected more even though the breakfast was really good. We have other four star hotels for the same price better people experienced.

Shower was not possible, because there was only very hot water from the tap was. After a call to the front desk they told me, that the problem was known, but first after the weekend will be fixed. In the case a four-star hotel I hope, that the problem was taken care of as soon as possible. On request, whether it is the garage fee (8,50 euros) could adopted, the Rezptionsdame said, that it can take a decision and not let me pay. Breakfast buffet was okay and the staff was friendly.

Relatively small, families managed hotel. Very good with the car to start, sufficient parking spaces directly at the hotel or covered in the side street available. The center from Leipzig is easily by tram from the stop just a few meters away and easily reached. Very friendly check-in, very friendly staff in the restaurant. Read more
