Alte Messe Leipzig

Alte Messe Leipzig (Old trade fair of Leipzig) is the circa 50 hectares (120 acres) site in the southeastern part of Leipzig's district Mitte, where from 1920 until 1991 the technical exhibitions of the Leipzig Trade Fair took place, as well as the buildings that stand on it – but not the trade fair itself, which found a new home at a new site in the northern part of Leipzig. Since 1996 there has been no trade fair activity on the old site.
