Federal Administrative Court, Supreme administrative court in Leipzig, Germany
The Federal Administrative Court occupies a large structure with a prominent dome and classical design. Inside, the building contains numerous courtrooms and administrative offices where cases are heard throughout the year.
The structure was built in 1879 as the Imperial Court of Justice and remained so until 1945. Following World War II, it was eventually transformed into the home of the Federal Administrative Court.
The court processes 1,500 cases annually, with 55 judges organized in specialized senates addressing different fields of administrative law.
The building offers organized group visits at scheduled times throughout the week. Visitors should plan ahead and check for available times when making a trip to see the courtrooms and halls.
The waterfront area next to the courthouse features illuminated elements that create a special visual display after dark. This evening lighting transforms the space into an inviting environment for evening walks along the water.
