Lübeck Museum Harbour
Highlight • Historical Site
Behind the over 100-year-old swing bridge lies the home port with over 20 traditional sailing ships that are still seaworthy. It was friends of traditional seafaring who bought and restored old sailing ships and moored them on the Untertrave in front of the picturesque old town backdrop of Lübeck. The historic ships are brought back to life on the popular Baltic Sea cruises. Sailing along is welcome!
The people of Lübeck built their city in a protected inland location. In 1329, however, Lübeck acquired the fishing village of Travemünde and thus secured its own access to the Baltic Sea.

Chancellery Building Arcade, Lübeck
Highlight • Historical Site
North of the Lübeck Town Hall is the so-called Chancellery building, then called Schriverie. It was built in 1485 in the Gothic style. The construction phase lasted five years. In the years 1588 and 1614, the building was extended as far as Mengstraße. It was the seat of the notaries and council clerks. They kept the Niederstadtbuch from 1277 to 1863, which today represents an important historical source.
Inside the Chancellery building is the "Renaissance Hall" from 1612/1615, the former "Kommissionsstube" (courtroom) with rich paneling by Tönnies Evers the Younger.
In the arcades of the ground floor, which were open until 1818, there were stalls where furriers and shoemakers had their shops and workshops. At the beginning of the 19th century, the Chancellery building housed, among other things, the passport and stamp office, the registry with the state archive, and the office of the beer inspection.
Later, the building served as a police station.

Buddenbrook House, Lübeck
Highlight • Historical Site
"The Buddenbrookhaus in Mengstraße 4 opposite Marienkirche looks back on an eventful history: Built in 1758 by Johann Michael Croll, a businessman from Marburg, the house was acquired in 1841 by Johann Siegmund Mann, the grandfather of Heinrich and Thomas Mann. It remained in the possession of the Mann family until 1891. In 1893, the Hanseatic city of Lübeck took over the building and rented it in the following years.For example, the house, which became famous through literature, housed the cadastral office, a night station of the Lantern Guardians and the Lübeck State Lottery Opening of the "Buddenbrook Bookstore" in 1922, where Thomas Mann was present, the house was once to be made accessible to literature.
During the night of Palm Sunday 1942, more than a fifth of Lübeck's historic old town was destroyed by bombing by the British Air Force. From Buddenbrookhaus only the facade and the vaulted cellar remained. In 1954, a bank bought the destroyed building and built a new building behind the old façade, where it opened a branch in 1957.
The Buddenbrook House, which had become world famous through the novel Thomas Mann, returned to the Hanseatic City of Lübeck in 1991 with the support of the Federal Republic of Germany and the Land of Schleswig-Holstein. Behind the historic façade was a modern Heinrich and Thomas Mann Center, the "born place" for a lively exploration of the life and work of the brothers.
Today, a permanent exhibition on the ground floor teaches the visitor about the relationship between the brothers and their hometown Lübeck. On the first floor and in the vaulted cellar there are temporary exhibitions, conferences, film and video presentations as well as readings. A research area with library and EDP to support those interested in Heinrich and Thomas Mann with words and deeds is under construction.

Niederegger Marzipan Museum
Highlight • Cafe
"In Lübeck, the triumphal procession of marzipan began around the world." Georg Niederegger (1777 - 1856) founded the manufactory, which still has its headquarters in Lübeck and is still family owned today.
In the middle of the old town directly opposite the town hall is the famous Café Niederegger with the Marzipan Salon. On the second floor he presents the history of the "harem confectionery" and takes the visitor on a long journey through time, which has traced the almond specialty from Lübeck to the Orient for many centuries. Unmistakable attractions are the 12 life-size figures made of marzipan: from Hans Jakob Christoffel von Grimmelshausen over Thomas Mann to Wolfgang Joop, all fans of the famous Niederegger marzipan. The most beautiful marzipan souvenirs of the Hanseatic city, especially the magnificent Holstentor made of pure marzipan, can be bought on the ground floor. Even the smallest figures such as the cute teddy bears, the lucky pigs or the well-known colorful fruits of marzipan are small works of art.

Lübeck Town Hall
Highlight • Historical Site
The construction of the Lübeck town hall began in 1230, shortly after the granting of imperial freedom, and over the years it has been repeatedly changed and expanded. This explains the different architectural styles and parts. It was completed in 1308. It still fulfills its role today as the seat of administration, meeting place for the citizens and their committees as well as the Senate.
