The Waldstraßenviertel impresses with its wonderfully preserved architecture, its proximity to Rosental as well as a diverse range of gastronomy and culture.
The Waldstraßenviertel is Germany's largest contiguous Wilhelminian-era district. This picturesque district of Leipzig is located in the immediate vicinity of the city center, the Red Bull Arena, and the Leipzig RosentalAlthough the area of ​​today's Waldstraßenviertel has been part of the city since the 15th century, it was not used as a residential area until the 60s. Many of the impressive Wilhelminian-era buildings that can still be admired today date from this period. Due to the numerous Jewish merchants who settled here in the early years, the district soon became popularly known as "Little Jerusalem."


Today, in addition to the typical architecture, the Waldstrassenviertel is home to many small shops, cafés and restaurants. Special highlights in the Waldstrassenviertel are the Mückenschlösschen with its varied gastronomy and stage offerings, as well as the regular tours organized by the Waldstrassenviertel Citizens' Association.
