The Leipzig Trade Fair was a major fair for trade across Central Europe for nearly a millennium; its history goes back to the Middle Ages. After the Second World War, its location happened to lie within the borders of East Germany, whereupon it became one of the most important trade fairs of Comecon and was traditionally a meeting place for businessmen and politicians from both sides of the Iron Curtain.

Today, the most important fairs are the Leipziger Buchmesse and the Auto Mobil International.

The City of Music

Leipzig is in eastern Germany in a low-lying area in the northwestern part of Saxony. The city is by the rivers Elster, Pleisse and Parthe. For centuries, Leipzig has been benefiting from its privileged location within the trans-European traffic network. Over the years, Leipzig has grown as a major trade-fair and commercial centre and is today called the "mother of all trade fairs" due to its strategic location.

The city is known for being the hometown of Johann Sebastian Bach and features the Mendelssohn House Museum (the only surviving residence of the composer Felix Mendelssohn Bartholdy). The Opera House continues a tradition of over 300 years and is the second oldest German Opera. The old Town Hall is one of the most beautiful Renaissance town halls in Germany and the Central Station is one of the largest terminus train stations in Europe.
