Leipzig's oldest and largest church was the epicenter of the peaceful demonstrations which eventually brought the Berlin Wall crashing down in November 1989. The city is still feeling the effects of the end of communism, but even apart from the events of 1989, the Nikolaikirche (St. Nicholas' Church) still has plenty of historical relevance. Founded in 1175, the church was extended over the years and exhibits a potpourri of Romantic, Gothic, Renaissance, Baroque and Classical architectural styles. Bach's Christmas Oratorio was originally performed here and Martin Luther once preached from the pulpit.
