Discover the rich industrial heritage of Plagwitz with us! This lively neighbourhood, nowadays known for its cultural scene and hip industrial architecture, was built during the 19th century Industrial Revolution. The Leipzig International School seventh graders have researched the local history of the time and created this 3,5 km walking tour that takes you to 11 monuments from that era. There is a German language version of this tour as well!
