This is a collection of 6 old style houses. All were refurbished and the skinny one is of most interest in that the windows are all sagged. Very interesting.

Lübeck’s medieval architecture is stunning, with its famous red-brick Gothic buildings and narrow streets. The Holstentor, a well-preserved city gate, is a key highlight. You can wander the old town for free, exploring churches, quaint shops, and cobblestone streets. Depending on your interest, you could spend a full day here exploring the city’s rich history and beautiful architecture.

These historical salt storehouses standing on the banks of the Trave River are impressive examples of Brick Gothic architecture, which is characteristic of many buildings in Lübeck. With their imposing facades, tall gables, and numerous decorations, such a salt storehouse is an architectural gem! Originally, large quantities of salt were stored here, which was used for food preservation and as a significant commodity for trade. Salt was of great economic importance to Lübeck at that time and contributed significantly to the wealth of the city.💚! PS. On the opposite shore are some great cafes, there you can wonderfully while enjoying a drink🍺☕🍷, for example, these salt stores quite cozy in sight...

The Salzspeicher in Lübeck are indeed a must-see! These historic Gothic-style warehouses, located along both sides of the Trave River, were once used to store salt—a key commodity in the Middle Ages that helped Lübeck flourish as part of the Hanseatic League. Their distinctive red-brick architecture is a stunning example of Gothic design, and strolling by them is completely free, making it a perfect stop for visitors. Highly recommended for anyone exploring Lübeck!

The salt storehouses are six historic brick buildings on the Upper Trave River next to the Holstentor. They were built in the 16th–18th centuries and they stored salt that was mined near Lüneburg and brought to Lübeck over the Stecknitz Canal. The salt was then shipped to several ports in the Baltic region.

These mediaeval salt storehouses on the Trave River's banks are magnificent examples of Brick Gothic architecture; a salt storehouse is a true architectural gem! Originally, enormous amounts of salt were stored here, which was used for food preservation and as a significant commodity in commerce. The houses, constructed between the 16th and 18th centuries, stored salt mined near Lüneburg and carried to Lübeck via the Stecknitz Canal. The salt was then shipped to a number of ports. Salt was of tremendous economic importance to Lübeck during the time, contributing greatly to the city's prosperity. It is a tourist destination, and the town is surrounded by gorgeous architecture. There are many cafes, restaurants, shopping malls and so on. Lübeck has a beautiful and picturesque landscape! Salt warehouses were used to store salt, which was a valuable commodity at the time! Make careful you cross the river for the finest scenery! If you are visiting Lübeck, be sure to stop by the stroll area, where you can wander around and explore the attractions while also enjoying refreshments. You could also go boating. You can also have coffee and go sightseeing. There are plenty excellent restaurants and bars nearby where you may enjoy some delicious cuisine. I highly recommend!!!

NOSFERATU!!! Apart from being beautiful, the place means a lot to those of us who are lovers of horror movies. Wismar and Lübeck are famous on a cinematographic level because the movie NOSFERATU (year 1922) was filmed in these cities. So, as a result of its 100th anniversary, I wanted to know several places where the film was filmed, and in the case of Lübeck, I started with the old salt warehouse, a place with Gothic / Baltic architecture, and very important between the 16th and 18.
