The Pleissenburg (German: Pleißenburg) was a historical building in the city of Leipzig in Saxony which is in modern-day Germany. It was built in the 13th century by Theodoric I, Margrave of Meissen and named after the Pleisse Mill Race (German: Pleißemühlgraben) which runs nearby and is often called for short Pleisse.
