Walking in LÜBECK / Germany 🇩🇪

Lübeck (engl. also Luebeck) is city in northern German. It was the medieval capital of the Hanseatic League and features Brick Gothic architecture.

We start our tour at the train station which is West of the old town. After 5 minutes we are at the Puppenbrücke (Puppet Bridge) and shortly thereafter at the symbol of Lübeck - Holstentor. This iconic building is a red-brick city gate that protected the river-bounded Altstadt (old town) and is the landmark building of Lübeck.

We check around the city center, walk on the pedestrian “Breite Straße” and see the nice market square (pictured in the thumbnail).

Eventually we head towards the Trave River and enjoy the relaxed atmosphere there with fewer people until the ship museum. Heading back to the center we pass the St. Jakobi Church from where we walk northwards towards the Burgtor.

The Burgtor is another city gate where we end this tour.
