Stadthafen Leipzig, Sportboot- und Freizeithafen im Westen des Leipziger Stadtzentrums am Elstermühlgraben

Stadthafen Leipzig is a marina and leisure harbour in the Mitte district, opened in 2000 in the former Elsterbecken basin near the Palmengarten weir. Wooden jetties and floating pontoons line the rectangular basin, with moored motor and sailing boats and a row of waterfront buildings along the western quay.

The port took its present form during the 19th century as Leipzig grew into a major trading hub. The Elster River was expanded to accommodate boat traffic, giving the city access to regional trade networks.

Stadthafen Leipzig opened in 2000 as part of the city's bid for the 2012 Olympics, converting the former Elsterbecken industrial basin into a marina. Today it is a leisure harbour: around 100 berths for motor and sailing boats, a promenade, and the adjacent Heiterblickbrücke area used for walks and events. The name simply means "city harbour".

The port is accessible from multiple sides, both on foot along the waterfront paths and by bicycle. Visitors can explore the area freely and observe the activity from different vantage points along the water.

Stadthafen Leipzig opened in 2000 as part of the city's application for the 2012 Olympics, built on the site of a former freight yard. Its basin is fed by the Karl-Heine-Kanal, which links to the Elster-Saale canal and the Saale river, so boats can reach the Elbe and the North Sea.
