Living in Lubeck

Lubeck is a fantastic city, it is the second largest in the north of Germany in Schleswig-Holstein and serves as one of the largest ports in the country. The city is nicknamed ‘the marzipan city’, as it is often said that marzipan was first created there. Lubeck is a picturesque city which retains its Brick Gothic architecture, and as a result, the Old Town has been declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site. A number of sites can be seen around the city including the Holsten Gate which is the symbol of the city and the Burgtor gate. For expats living in Lubeck, there are a lot of great traditions and culture to get involved in.
