About Schleußig

From Wikipedia

Schleußig (German pronunciation: [ˈʃlɔʏsɪç]; or Schleussig) is a locality of Leipzig in Germany. It is in the borough (Stadtbezirk) Südwest (southwest). First mentioned in 1391 under the name of Slizzig, Schleußig acquired the status of a rural municipality in 1835 before being integrated into Leipzig in 1891. A good third of the locality is occupied by the Nuns' Woods (Nonnenholz) of the Leipzig Riverside Forest (Leipziger Auwald) and a small part by the Clara-Zetkin-Park.
