The perfect place to stay for fairs in Leipzig
Kathrin_E
  • By Kathrin_E on August 5, 2008
  • Delitzsch Page by Kathrin_E
  • Local trains connect Delitzsch with Leipzig central station once or twice per hour, more often when fairs take place. The ride into town takes 25 minutes. Trains run till late in the evening.

    Since the fairgrounds are halfway along this very railway line, Delitzsch is the perfect base for visiting fairs in Leipzig. Train connections are grand, direct local trains from Delitzsch to the station at the fairgrounds (Leipzig Neue Messe) take 11 minutes. The fair is faster to reach from Delitzsch than from Leipzig center. The fair ticket is valid on public transport and local trains in Leipzig and surroundings, which includes Delitzsch.
    Highly recommended to anyone who wants to visit the Messe, even without a car, and avoid the sky-high prices of the hotels in downtown Leipzig.

    Schloss and baroque garden
    by Kathrin_E, 2 more photos
    The palace was built as a gothic castle in the late 14th century by Markgraf Wilhelm of Meißen. In the late 17th century it was modernized and redecorated in baroque style. Two widowed Duchesses of Sachsen-Merseburg inhabited it between 1692 and 1734. Later it served for administrative purposes, after 1860 as a prison for women.

    The garden has been reconstructed in baroque style with the typical short boxwood hedges and coloured gravel.

    Now the palace contains a museum (see tip), the tourist information office and the civil registry office.

    Opening hours of museum and tourist information: Tue-Fri and Sun 10-12 and 14-17, Sat 14-17, closed Mon.

    The museum consists of the apartment of the Duchess Widow and some exhibitions on the history of the town. Besides, visitors can enjoy the view from the tower.

    The apartment isn't completely preserved (because of the palace's later use as a prison) but some of the original furniture is still there.

    The so called "Kuhfuß" (cow foot, photo 5) served as a drinking vessel. When a new member of the town council was elected he had to empty it - the thing holds 2 litres of beer. Cheers!

    Opening hours: Tues-Fri and Sun 10-12 and 14-17, Sat 14-17. Entrance fee 2,50 €.

    In the 18th century the so called "Postmeilensäulen" were erected all over Saxony. The pillars show the distances to surrounding towns. Distances are given in hours, a measure meaning the distance a post carriage was supposed to complete in one hour, not actual travel times.

    The rectangular market square is the heart of the town. The yellow classicist building is the town hall.
    The parish church is situated on a smaller square one block back.

    Delitzsch's Town Hall was erected in 1474 but the facade is in the style of Late Classicism. The interior is still in Baroque style. It is possible to visit a few parts of the town hall on your own but most rooms are just open to guided tours.
