Alternative Tour - Plagwitz Tour
Hi my name is Matej Eber and I founded Free Walking Tour Leipzig in 2017. After I came to Leipzig as an Erasmus student, fell in love with the city and decided to stay. We are currently the highest-rated tour on Google and TripAdvisor. Today we are a group of 7 guides: Svetlana, Florian, Johannes, Juan, Alejandro, Marius, and me. :)

Description
Find out where Leipzig's most laid-back neighborhood is. Plagwitz was an industrial area until the early 1990s.
Currently, Plagwitz has turned itself around once more and has become a center for street art, the creative industries, international cuisine, and dive pubs. Come along on this three-hour trip as we examine the roots of "Hypezig," the history of industrialization, graffiti, alternative bars, Spätis, and thrift shops.
