It’s always hard to fill the shoes of someone who used to do your job very well. If you’re the choirmaster at St. Thomas Church in Leipzig, guess whose shoes you have to fill? Bach’s. (No pressure.) Leipzig is closely connected to classical music—Wagner was born here, and Mendelssohn established a conservatory here in 1843. If you’re more of a melancholy, contemporary type, visit during the Wave-Gotik-Treffen, billed as the world’s largest "dark" (Goth, industrial, punk, etc.) music festival.

This church looks a bit dated from the outside but is vast in size and sits in a small square in a busy pedestrian area. But inside it is truly majestic with its high white pillars topped with its green palms all around the church. The altar is big and wonderous with many pictures adorning its walls to the backdrop of large coloured windows. The pews are different too in a cream colour instead of the usual wooden variety. This is not to be missed because of its splendour but also because it was where the locals first started meeting to protest against the regime.
