Lübeck has numerous epithets: “Queen of the Hanseatic Lea-gue”, “City of the seven towers”, “Mother of brick architecture” and “Capital of marzipan”. No wonder that many people have put the city at the top of their list of destinations – two million overnight stays are counted here every year. In die old town, which is a UNESCO world heritage site, the flavour of the Middle Ages is everywhere. The splendour, piety and poverty of a bygone era can rarely be experienced as intensely as here.weiterlesen
