Its silhouette is as unmistakable as its emblem is world-famous: Lübeck, the "City of Seven Towers" with the Holsten Gate.
Behind this imposing entrance you'll find the former "Queen of the Hanseatic League", today a UNESCO cultural heritage site. In 1987 the entire Old Town was distinguished with this status: a work of art comprising over 1,000 buildings ranging from Romanesque to modern styles that have been designated as protected historic monuments. They include the City Hall, Gothic brick churches, the Buddenbrook House, magnificent merchants' houses, the medieval Holy Ghost Hospital, and looming brick gabled houses with romantic courtyards.
Our recommendations: Enjoy all of the facets of this Hanseatic city - a cultural experience that offers you the Heinrich and Thomas Mann Center, as well as the culinary delights provided by exquisite marzipan and a glass of rotspon.
