Lonely Planet review for Universität Leipzig

On the west side of Augustusplatz, the run-down GDR-era Universität Leipzig, with its bronze relief depicting Karl Marx, is expected to soon have a date with the wrecking ball. Not too many Leipzigers will likely shed a tear, for many still remember the medieval Paulinerkirche which stood here until being demolished in 1968 by GDR authorities. A handful of beautiful epitaphs salvaged from the church are on display in a glass case on Grimmaische Strasse.
