Durch den unbekannten Leipziger Süden! – Poetry-Radtour mit der Lesebühne Schkeuditzer Kreuz nach Markkleeberg

In the organizer's words:

The text pilots of the well-known Leipzig reading stage Schkeuditzer Kreuz - Julius Fischer, Marsha Richarz, Kurt Mondaugen, Franziska Wilhelm and Hauke von Grimm - invite you to an extraordinary literary expedition adventure through Leipzig for the third time.

From the starting point at Wiedebachplatz, the Lesebühnen-Radtour first takes you to the heart of the magical but little-known fairytale settlement of Marienbrunn, then to the prefabricated housing estate of Lößnig and the legendary Silbersee lake. The tour continues via the magical Dölitzer Rundling towards AGRA Park. At each stopover, there will be live poetry or songs from the reading stage crew to match the location.
The tour ends at the White House in Markkleeberg, where the spectacular final reading takes place as dusk falls.

Lesebühnen-Radtour 2026 is presented by Faible Booking & Werk 2, in cooperation with Allgemeiner Deutscher Fahrrad-Club Leipzig e.V. (ADFC Leipzig), Klengel&Team, City of Markkleeberg, Office for Culture and Tourism and Kulturraum Leipziger Raum.
