At a glance
Always a good place to go for a snack in between: the Cafeteria of our Mensa am Park. You decide, whether you want to drink your coffee together with friends in the outside sitting area or take it to the lecture!
Not only the freshly made buns lure the students in our cafeteria during the breaks. From daily changing sweet and salty snacks, over freshly made smoothies to healthy breakfast with the popular Overnight Oats – nothing left to be desired here.
Since October 2025, the installation “Again and Again” by Ida Lovis Hüsing, a student at the HGB Leipzig, has enriched our cafeteria. The artwork combines blue-gray wall painting with vibrant ceramic plates, creating a lively, multi-layered atmosphere realized as part of the “Kunst am Bau” (Art in Architecture) competition.
