List of arcade galleries in Leipzig

{{short description|none}}

The arcade galleries in Leipzig developed in connection with the emergence of inner-city exhibition centers of the Leipziger Messe at the turn of the 20th century{{Cite book |title=Leipzig! One Thousand Years of History |last=Ringel |first=Sebastian |publisher=Author and Edition Leipzig in the Seemann Henschel GmbH Co. KG |year=2015 |isbn=978-3-361-00710-9 |location=Leipzig |pages=109–115 |language=en}} and are often based on old passageways. But the tradition of building passages has also been maintained in more recent times. The Leipzig passages and courtyards thus form a unique architectural quality in Leipzig-Mitte and run through the old city center parallel to the network of existing streets and alleys like a second, private path system that is only reserved for pedestrians.

The list includes all the usable arcade galleries.
