Only the second husband of his widow - Johann Gottlob Böhme (1717-1780), a history professor at Leipzig University, had the building completed in 1770. The upper bourgeoisie of the city frequented the building and even Friedrich Schiller visited the palace in 1785. In 1793 the building came into the possession of the city of Leipzig as a result of a will.

stages
Leipzig Central StadiumThe Leipzig Central Stadium was one of the largest stadiums in Europe in the days of the GDR. 1994 Between 1954 and 1987 the "Gymnastics and Sports Festival of the GDR" took place here a total of eight times. The stadium was built according to plans by the architect Karl Souradny for around 100,000 spectators and was inaugurated in the summer of 1956. It should be mentioned that around 120,000 spectators attended the international football match between the GDR and Czechoslovakia on October 27, 1957. East Germany lost the game 4-1. After reunification, the club, renamed VFB Leipzig, managed to play in the first Bundesliga in 1993, but at the end of the season the descent began - down to the sixth division. In the years that followed, the stadium deteriorated and was closed in 1994 due to dilapidation.
But under the Chancellorship of Gerhard Schröder, the federal government gave around 50 million euros for the construction of a new stadium, which was completed in 2004 and could seat 43,000 spectators. The new stadium was built into the old one. The new Leipzig stadium then became one of the venues for the 2006 World Cup. "But what is going to happen here afterwards?" World Cup organizer Franz Beckenbauer said at the time. And Beckenbauer was right, since the World Cup, the stadium has mostly remained empty and the operators have made losses every year. There was and is still no club in Leipzig that can generate the corresponding income. But that can be done from the second Bundesliga at the earliest. Therefore, the football club RB Leipzig was founded in 2009 by the Austrian shower manufacturer "Red Bull", with which he wants to advance to the Bundesliga. Since July 1, 2010, the stadium has been called "Red Bull Arena". On October 11, 2015, the European qualifier of the German national team against Georgia took place here, which Germany had won 2-1 with difficulty.

bodies of water, rivers
The White Elster flows through Leipzig and flows into the Saale. The Pleiße and the Parthe also flow into the White Alster in the city. The Luppe is a tributary of the Weißen Elster, which runs parallel to it until it flows into the Saale. The Pleißenmühlgraben is one of the tributaries of the Pleiße that flows past the city center, which is why many consider the Pleiße to be "the" Leipzig river.
Auensee with park railway In the Leutzscher Auenwald, a railway runs around the lake.
Baggersee The lake is located on the Theaklaerstraße near the beautiful Abtnaundorfer Park.
