Activity itinerary

Altes Kaufhaus (Pass by)

Once known as the 'Herring House', this grand baroque building was the heart of Lüneburg's salt trade and a key hub of the Hanseatic League.

Alter Kran

  • 15m
The historic 14th-century crane on the Ilmenau riverbank, once used to load salt barrels onto Hanseatic trade ships heading north.

Stintmarkt im Luneburger Hafen

  • 15m
A charming waterfront square lined with colourful merchant houses, once a lively fish and salt market along the Ilmenau River.

Bromsehaus (Pass by)

A magnificent 15th-century merchant house, once home to a wealthy salt trading family and a fine example of Lüneburg's prosperous Hanseatic heritage.

St. John's Church (Pass by)

One of the finest brick Gothic churches in northern Germany, with a distinctive leaning tower and stunning interior artwork spanning centuries.

Am Sande

  • 15m
Lüneburg's most impressive square, flanked by ornate red-brick merchant houses, Gothic churches, and the city hall — the commercial heart of medieval Lüneburg.

Historisches Lueneburger Rathaus (Pass by)

One of Germany's most impressive medieval town halls, with a stunning Gothic facade and ornate interior chambers that reflect Lüneburg's immense salt-trade wealth.

Das Schwangere Haus (Pass by)

The 'Pregnant House' — a remarkable building whose unusual outward-bulging facade gave it this memorable nickname, caused by centuries of salt-mine subsidence.

Auf dem Meere

  • 15m
A picturesque street in the heart of Lüneburg's old town, with well-preserved historic buildings offering insight into daily life in the medieval salt city.

Luneburg

  • 15m
The 'Subsidence Area' — where centuries of underground salt extraction caused dramatic ground sinkage, creating a surreal landscape of tilting and sunken buildings.
