A little bit about Leipzig
Forming part of the Former East Germany, Leipzig is a city of transformation. Although 500 years old, the biggest changes seem to have been happening in the past 15 years. It has seen a lot of the architecture associated with communism removed, while much of it's heritage is refurbished and transformed. There are still elements of communism and those times remaining, strangely one of the sites is opposite to the Marriott hotel! But, as it is currently in the stages of refurbishment, you will have to be quick to catch it! For those who are unfamiliar with the history of the Peaceful Revolution of 1989 and subsequent re-unification of Germany, this is where it is all believed to have ...

Direct flights are also available from Lufthansa and BMi but are far more expensive. The only drawbacks with Air Berlin are flying from Stanstead and the return flight time. Flights leave Stanstead at around 8.00pm but the return flights are 6.00am ...
