Hanseatic city, Lübeck

When I lived in Lüneburg, I took a trip up to Lübeck. Lübeck is known for its marzipan factory. It was also part of an old league called the Hanseatic league made up of very powerful cities in the middle ages/medieval times. They used to trade things with one another. The town I used to live in, Lüneburg, Niedersachsen (Lower Saxony), used to be one on the main rich cities. But I will save that for when I show a postcard from Lüneburg (I have many!) I have been through this city gate and old town square, it was quite a cute town. I also had herring at a restaurant in Lübeck, and realized that herring is awful and I hate it. Thank you, Sandra for bringing back memories!
