„Quite urban!“ A tour of Leipzig
So what’s the deal with the right to protest? What does the Federal Administrative Court do? And how does the law relate to our everyday lives?
The free guided tour „Quite Urban! A Walk Through Leipzig,“ organized by the Forum Recht Foundation, answers these and many other questions. Together, we’ll discover Leipzig’s curiosities and the city’s scandals—both big and small—and learn about places related to the law as well as fascinating legal cases.
Follow us on a journey through the history of the rule of law and discover a new side of Leipzig.
