Lübeck - Queen of the Hanseatic League | Discover Germany

Centuries ago Lübeck was a major trading power. The well-preserved old town testifies to its glory and wealth in medieval times. Lübeck’s old town, comprising around 1,800 listed buildings and historic alleyways, was awarded UNESCO World Cultural Heritage status in 1987. The main landmark, the Holstentor, is a fortified gate. In medieval times the city built a system of barriers to protect the Hanseatic League capital and the rich merchants who lived there.
