The history of the Leipzig Bach Archive
The Leipzig Bach Archive was founded on November 20, 1950 to mark the occasion of Johann Sebastian Bach’s 200th death anniversary. The purpose of the Bach Archive was to gather the sources and documents about the life and works of the Cantor of St. Thomas’s, which were strewn all over the city of Leipzig, and to preserve them for the future.
Organisation & Boards
The Leipzig Bach Archive, a non-profit corporation, was founded in 1998. It receives its basic financial support from the City of Leipzig, the Federal Government of Germany, and the Free State of Saxony.
The Bose House
Home of the Leipzig Bach Archive is the so called Bose House, one of the oldest structures still standing on the south flank of St. Thomas's Square.
