List of districts of Leipzig

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The present-day city of Leipzig was created through the gradual incorporation of previously independent rural communities or (knight) manor districts of the Leipzig administrative authority , the Leipzig district and the Leipziger Land district , which began in 1889.

These formerly independent communities are now referred to as districts and must not be confused with the structure of the districts (see list of districts and districts of Leipzig ). Although they sometimes have the same name, the districts have only existed since 1992, have different, arbitrary borders and sometimes include several districts.

There are 98 districts in total.
