Der Schrebergarten

Leipzig's Schrebergarten, or Kleingarten, are swaths of land divided into small plots, privately owned by residents of the city. Until today I had no idea how big Leipzig's Kleingarten system was. There are several different communities, and hundreds, maybe even a thousand separate plots.
