Henry Van de Velde Museum Leipzig & Western Saxony

Around 2.5km south of the centre, this small but choice museum occupies the 1903 Villa Esche, which was Belgian artist Van de Velde's first commission in Germany. The dining room and music salon have been restored as period rooms, while upstairs you’ll find a small collection of crafts and furniture. Take tram 4 to Haydnstrasse.
