    If you come to Buxtehude, you should definitely visit the old town - one of the city's main attractions. The old town is known for its mix of maritime flair and historical architecture and offers a cozy atmosphere.

      Of central importance for Buxtehude's development was its membership in the Hanseatic League, documented from 1363 onwards. Historical documents and archaeological finds demonstrate that the town soon became a hub of Hanseatic sea and land trade. Buxtehude was the first German town to be systematically built around a central and thus protected harbor basin and was, at the time, the most modern port in Germany. To this day, the historic old town is largely characterized by the Fleth, the inner-city harbor canal, which vividly illustrates what a harbor looked like during the Hanseatic period.
      The museum offers extensive background information and encourages visitors to explore the historic old town with open eyes.
