Can you hear the gentle rustling of the leaves above you? That’s Goethe Park, a green oasis in the heart of Leipzig. Look to your right, and you might spot a squirrel darting from branch to branch. Did you know that this park was once part of a grand landscape garden created in the 19th century? Back then, the citizens of Leipzig would stroll here in their finest Sunday attire. In the summer, the park hosts open-air concerts, filling the air with enchanting music. And if you visit in the autumn, look out for the vibrant leaves carpeting the ground.
