    Napoleon passed this place on 27.10.1813 during his retreat.
    In the Battle of the Nations near Leipzig from 16 to 19 October 1813, he suffered a heavy defeat. In the hitherto largest single battle in the history of Europe, the French army lost 60,000 to 73,000 men. The Allies lost 54,000 men, including about 16,000 Prussians. In total, 30,000 men fell or were wounded every day. Napoleon had to retire.
