Lübeck, the«marzipan-city»

After 1800 Lübeck was known as the «marzipan-city». Unknown, is how it got to this name.

It can be assumed that a competition between various, at that time famous confectioneries was responsible for the name-giving.

Today the «Lübecker-marzipan» is exported by several companies from all over the world.

«Baltic Sea Spa» Travemünde

Know all over the world is the Baltic Sea Spa Travemünde, which is part of Lübeck since 1329. Here you will find one of the most impressively architectural promenades on the German coast with a wide sandy beach in the sheltered bay.

The golf course of Lübeck, one of the oldest in Germany, is located behind the Brodtener seashore, a 20 meters tall and 4 kilometers long cliff coast.

In the port of Travemünde the four-masted barque «Passat» is surrounded by hundreds of yachts. It is known as a museum ship and is the city's landmark

A special highlight is the Travemünde Week, the second largest sailing event in the world.

Every year in July about 3000 sailors in 8000 boats start from the Lübeck's bay.

The sailing event on the Baltic Sea is accompanied by a folk festival.
