Pure culture in Lübeck
Welcome to Lübeck
Lübeck is arguably one of Germany's most beautiful cities. The old part of town has approximately 1,000 listed buildings. The most famous of them is the Holsten Gate. But the Church of St Mary and the Heilgen-Geist-Hospital (Holy Spirit Hospital) are also really worth seeing. Armed with a few tips from those in the know, you can easily discover Lübeck's hidden corners and courtyards. Lübeck is also noted for its trendy bars and a vast array of shopping possibilities. The modern hostel is situated in the north of the city, near the Burgtor, a towered gate. You can walk to the historical city centre in about 10 minutes.
