Product description

Johann Sebastian Bach worked at the Thomaskirche, or St Thomas’ Church, for 27 years. From 1723 to 1750 he was Thomaskantor – the musical director of the boys’ choir – in Leipzig. The St Thomas Boys’ Choir is still famous throughout the world. The composer’s remains have been in St Thomas’ Church since 1950.

A guided tour up the tower of St Thomas’ Church is an ideal addition to any supporting programme in Leipzig.
