Connewitz, Alternative district in southern Leipzig, Germany.
The district covers 16.86 square kilometers, with more than half of its territory consisting of the Connewitzer Holz forest area.
The name Connewitz originates from Old Sorbian language settlements established after the seventh century, translating to 'horse place' in English.
The neighborhood contains multiple socio-cultural centers, including Werk II and Conne Island, which provide spaces for artistic and community events.
The district connects to Leipzig's transportation network through several tram lines and S-Bahn services, offering direct access to the city center.
The Paul-Gerhardt Church from 1900 and St.-Bonifatius Church from 1930 represent different architectural periods within the district.
