Barthels Hof

Barthels Hof is a historic trade court building complex in Leipzig, Germany, built between 1747 and 1750. It features a unique 'through courtyard' design, allowing carts to enter and exit without turning. The baroque architecture includes a narrow facade and high-roofed houses surrounding the courtyard. Notable elements include the oldest surviving fragment of a town house facade in Leipzig, dating back to 1523. Once a hub for merchants, it has transformed into a vibrant space with shops and a traditional restaurant offering Saxon cuisine, making it a key attraction for visitors and researchers interested in Leipzig's rich trade history.
