Bayerischer Bahnhof

This pub and brewery is housed in what was once Leipzig’s main train station. It became a brewpub in 1999, when the derelict building was sold, and now serves a flurry of German beers as well as different forms of the local Gose beer, including Regenschirm – which is a cocktail mixing Gose with cumin liqueur and that dates back to the 19th century.

Bars & Nightlife

Leipzig has several pub districts, one of the most popular being the Drallewatsch, which runs from the Bruehl precinct along Fleischergasse to the New Town Hall. Many of the city’s pubs have beer gardens, which are incredibly popular in the summer. A must for beer lovers when in Leipzig is to try the locally brewed Leipzig Gose, a top-fermented beer that can be enjoyed at the Gose brewery Gasthaus & Gosebrauerei Bayerischer Bahnhof or at the pub Gosenschenke. The people of Leipzig sure know how to party, particularly the city’s university crowd, and there is a wide variety of funky clubs where you can put your legs up and let your hair down.
