Guided Tour: Discover the Monument to the Battle of the Nations
Let us tell you about the eventful history of this monumental structure. What do the figures within the monument signify, and why was the Monument to the Battle of the Nations considered the most ambitious monument project of the German Empire? These and other questions will be answered during our introductory tour of one of Leipzig’s most fascinating buildings.

We recommend arriving at the ticket office approximately 15 minutes before the tour begins. Groups of ten or more people, or groups requesting a tour in English, should book an exclusive appointment through the Visitor Services.

Wed March 25th | 6 PM

Open Event: Monumental Vocal – Community Singing at the Monument to the Battle of the Nations

This open singing format focuses on shared musical experiences. Participants will sing simple songs in various languages – in a relaxed and informal setting. Words, motifs, and melodies will spontaneously form loops, which the group will then pick up, develop, and recombine. Every voice is welcome and contributes to the vibrant musical process.

All you need is your own voice, a love of singing together, and a willingness to fill the space with music and create special, shared moments of sound.

Led by: Johanna Rost
Cost: Donation-based
Note: Please bring a cushion if needed.

7 & 9 PM
Short Guided Tours (in German): In the Shadow of History – Night Figures at the Monument to the Battle of the Nations
As soon as the monument is plunged into darkness, its night figures awaken – including stone sentinels and colossal figures. Alongside these protagonists, the tour also explores the long shadows cast by the Battle of the Nations and the monument’s history. Entering hidden chambers is unavoidable.

8 & 10 PM
Monumental Vocal Worlds – Stemmeklang (Norway)
The vocal quintet Stemmeklang has long worked with site-specific music and acoustics. This evening, the five Norwegian women will take us on a very special sonic journey. The goal: to elicit a unique blend of voices and harmonies from the domed hall of the Monument to the Battle of the Nations.

STEMMEKLANG: Kristin Bolstad, Linnéa Sundfær Casserly, Karoline Dahl Gullberg, Julie Kleive and Gabrielle Sørensen.
