- Museum Holstentor - The journey begins at the renowned Holsten Gate, a globally recognized emblem of Hanseatic pride, which featured on the German 50 Mark banknote until it was redesigned after German reunification in 1990.
The tour proceeds to the Salt storehouses, a collection of six historic brick buildings from the 16th to 18th centuries, located near the former industrial hub of the city, the Port of Lübeck. The next highlight is the traditional Hanseatic Town Hall, constructed in the 13th century in the market square of the old town. Its dark brick architecture provides a striking contrast to the surrounding red-brick structures.
Following this, the tour visits St. Mary’s Church, an exquisite example of brick Gothic architecture and the third largest church in Germany. This Lutheran church, rich in art and ambiance, features a beautiful Chapel of Memory and was built between 1250 and 1350. Outside St. Mary’s Church, visitors can capture a photo with the little devil statue while the guide shares its amusing tale.
The tour concludes with a leisurely walk through the renowned streets and charming houses at Buddenbrook House, which is dedicated to the writers Heinrich and Thomas Mann, and the “Buddenbrooks.”
