Unlike Bach House near by, Felix Mendelssohn the composer actually lived here from 1845 until his death in 1847. It holds a collection about his life and work.

It’s off the center of the city. There is a small garden, which’s nice.

A new statue for this popular composer erected in 2008. it’s near the Bachhaus.

I LOVE his violin concerto in E Minor. He was Leipzig Gewandhauskapellmeister and founder of the Conservatory of Music.
