Lübeck

Why go

For centuries Lübeck was a leading city of the Hanseatic League, and its UNESCO-listed old town still makes that past legible in brick. The Trave encloses the old center, giving the streets a distinct island shape. Medieval passages and courtyards reward a slower look beyond the large facades.

What to look for

• Brick Gothic buildings shape the old-town skyline.
• Small alleys and courtyards branch away from larger streets.
• The Trave wraps around the historic island.

Useful to know

• Walk into side alleys and courtyards instead of staying only on the main route.
• Use the river edges to orient yourself around the old-town island.
