Plagwitz - the past is futures neigbour

Plagwitz is a part of town and a song by a local band. But that is not the only reason why we took the tram to go there. Our friends told us what to do and see in Leipzig. In Plagwitz there is an old fabric and quite near there are some lofts. Sounds good because I like these things and there no tourists. Behind the scenes...
old spinning factory
We headed to the old cotton spinning factory. A huge area with tall brick buildings. These days the are a lot of start ups like architecture firms, galleries, cinemas, cafes, lawyers and so on. There are some flats as well. What a perfect spot to take nice pictures.

Plagwitz station
The train station of Plagwitz is just around the corner. As lots of houses and buildings in Saxony it looks abandoned. We followed a gravel road alongside the station and found some very nice spots to take pictures.

Time for a drink. We went to the racecourse that is surrounded by a nice park. After some snack and beer we headed to the town center. So many people seemed to have the same idea. But why? Ten... hundreds... thousands of people.  It was a football game. RB Leipzig vs. Monaco. We did not go. Instead we had a nice dinner and some beer.

Google told us we made 18 Km today!!! Now we realized how big the city was... What an easy day :-)
