Grünau, Residential quarter in western Leipzig, Germany
Grünau extends across 8.7 square kilometers and contains eight residential complexes featuring prefabricated apartment buildings designed in the WBS 70 style.
The district emerged from a 1920s garden settlement and developed into East Germany's largest housing project during the 1970s and 1980s construction period.
The district maintains several recreational spaces, including the Schönauer Park and Robert-Koch-Park, connected by the Parkallee for community activities.
Multiple S-Bahn stations and tram lines connect Grünau to central Leipzig, providing efficient transportation options for the 49,100 residents.
The population peaked at 85,000 residents in 1989, making it Leipzig's most populated district before experiencing a substantial demographic shift after German reunification.
