The Monday Demonstrations

On 9 October 1989, roughly 70,000 people marched around Leipzig's ring road chanting Wir sind das Volk. The security forces were deployed and did not intervene. Within a month the Berlin Wall was open.

The clock: Leipzig keeps UTC+1. Bach was cantor at the Thomaskirche here for 27 years, writing to a liturgical calendar that ran on the church's clock rather than the city's.
