Kindermuseum zum Messestadt Leipzig ist zwar nicht groß, aber fesselt selbst Neunjährige und Eltern über eine Stunde. Viele Mitmachstationen, die die Geschichte im wahrsten Sinne greifbar machen

Lucked out! My first hour in Leipzig, I arrived here just as a very interesting „Dialogue“ (presentation & discussion in German) began about the current exhibition—DDR in the 90s. I only saw this section of the museum. There are SO MANY interesting museums in Leipzig! I never got back here.
