8 - Old Stock Exchange and Naschmarkt |
Behind Old City Hall is Naschmarkt. On its narrow north side there is Old Stock Exchange, built in 1687, where merchants formerly drew up their contracts during trade fairs. The impressive hall on the 1st floor is today used for small events and concerts.
In front of Old Stock Exchange, a sculpture of Johann Wolfgang von Goethe commemorates his student years and youthful sweethearts in Leipzig.
