Leucorea back then
Today, the Leucorea is part of the University of Halle-Wittenberg, reviving the old tradition of the student campus for learning and research. At the time of the Reformation, the Leucorea was the seat of the Electoral Saxon State University and thus one of the most renowned universities in Germany. Martin Luther and Philipp Melanchthon worked at this historic site and played a key role in making Wittenberg the most visited university in the empire for a time.

Leucorea today
Today, the Leucorea has once again become an important research location under the foundation under public law at Martin Luther University Halle-Wittenberg. The historical premises of the Leucorea can also be used as a conference center. In addition, academic events of a national and international nature are held on an ongoing basis.
