Here I am in Lübeck

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.

Our author of the Lübeck guidebook is the travel writer and freelance journalist Jobst Stöver who is living in the Hanseatic City of Lübeck since many years..
