Best Time to Visit

Leipzig is charming in every season, so the best time to visit depends on the travel occasion and one's interests: in spring, parks such as the Auenwald begin to bloom, while from May until September, bars and restaurants open spaces are still ready to be enjoyed. From October on, however, Leipzig is dominated by rain that only slowly transforms into proper snow. Make sure to enjoy it during the Christmas market season, in late November and December.
