Our next destination brings us to Sanssouci Palace, the summer residence of Frederick the Great, built between 1745 and 1747. This architectural masterpiece stands as a testament to the opulence and grandeur of the Prussian monarchy. Despite its modest one-story height (with only the secondary wings featuring upper floors), Sanssouci Palace captivates visitors with its elegant design and picturesque setting atop a terraced vineyard.
Step inside, and you'll be greeted by a world of luxury and refinement.

St. Thomas Church
Our final stop brings us to the historic Church of St. Thomas, a revered landmark with a rich history spanning over 800 years. This iconic church holds a special place in the hearts of music enthusiasts worldwide, as it was here that Johann Sebastian Bach served as cantor from 1723 to 1750, leaving an indelible mark on Leipzig's cultural legacy.
The Church of St. Thomas is not only renowned for its musical heritage but also for its poignant connection to Bach's final resting place. Originally buried in an unmarked grave in St. John's Church, Bach's remains were later transferred to St. Thomas Church around 1800. Today, visitors can pay homage to the legendary composer at the altar of St. Thomas, adorned daily with fresh flowers as a tribute to his enduring influence.
