This district lies “below” Leipzig, and thus encompasses the neighbouring municipalities from east to west. Here, in the “Leipzig Lowlands” at around 150 metres above sea level, there were many vine trellises, and occasionally fruit trees growing on walls, such as pear trees, etc. Ivy, on the other hand, wild grapevine and wisteria were, according to my research, hardly found at all in this predominantly agricultural area.
A photographic tour travelling upstream along the Mulde to Colditz, past the castle to the market square, from there up Kirchgäßchen to the church, and finally to the neighbouring villages that have been incorporated into the municipality.
An unusually large number of vine trellises can be found in this village. Were there even more before the advent of photography? In some places, vines grew alongside every house, forming what might be called ‘wine streets’.
Plenty of greenery: a photo tour, starting outside the city to the west, heading east through the Untertor to the market square and continuing eastwards to the ‘Pulverturm’.
A photo tour taking in numerous vine-covered trellises, along Leipziger Straße to the market square via side streets, and from there to small neighbouring villages.
Vines and espalier fruit trees everywhere: a stroll from the lower end of the market up to the ‘Diakonatshaus’
In Trebsen, there is evidence of some green spaces in the town as well as vine trellises at the castle.
