Auwaldstation Leipzig
Located at the "entrance" to the Burgaue nature reserve and Lützschena Castle Park, the Auwaldstation invites guests of all ages to get to know one of the most beautiful and valuable natural areas in the region all year round. With a wealth of information on nature topics and a varied range of excursions, hikes, workshops and creative workshops, the Auwaldstation is an educational facility and meeting place. Both on the first floor of the building and in the outdoor areas, various experience areas provide information on numerous environmental and nature topics. The focus is on Leipzig's alluvial forest and the palace park. The second podcast episode of "Welcome to Leipzig" on the topic of "Hiking and cycling in Leipzig" features an interview with Managing Director Sebastian Günther and more facts about the local nature reserve and its animal inhabitants.
