The Peterssteinweg is a main road in the Leipzig district center-south . The extension of the Peterssteinweg to the south forms the Karl-Liebknecht-Straße
The 270 meter long Peterssteinweg, which runs south from Wilhelm-Leuschner-Platz or the inner city ring to Emilienstraße, was named after the Peterstor , where the street formerly led out of the old town. As a continuation of Peterstraße, Peterssteinweg was a small part of the old street Via Imperii , the former north-south trade route that led from Peterstor through what is now the Inner Südvorstadt and the Südvorstadt via Connewitz to Nuremberg .
