Coffe Baum, Historic coffeehouse in Leipzig, Germany

The four-story building houses a traditional coffeehouse with wooden furniture, decorative elements, and multiple dining rooms spread across different levels.

First mentioned in 1556, the establishment started serving coffee in 1711, making it among the oldest continuously operating coffeehouses in Europe.

Robert Schumann, Johann Sebastian Bach, and numerous other musicians and intellectuals regularly met at designated tables to discuss arts and society.

The coffeehouse museum at Kleine Fleischergasse 4 remains closed for renovation works until spring 2025, with inquiries handled through the city museum.

A baroque sculpture from 1720 adorns the facade, depicting an oriental figure reaching for a coffee cup, which gave the establishment its name.
