🎧 Listen to Introduction
Lübeck, the former capital and queen city of the Hanseatic League, was founded in the 12th century and flourished as a major trading center in Northern Europe until the 16th century. It remains a center of maritime trade, especially with the Nordic countries. Despite damage during World War II, the basic structure of the old town remains intact, consisting mainly of 15th- and 16th-century noble residences, public monuments (the famous Holstentor brick gate), churches, and salt warehouses.
