Holstentor

Holsten Gate (Holstentor) is one of the most famous sights in Lübeck. The city gate was built between 1464 and 1478 along the lines of Dutch models. The Holsten Gate became the proud symbol of Lübeck as a free imperial city. But it's not just the exterior that's a popular subject for photos. The "Holsten Gate Museum" is housed within the famous monument displaying the history of the Hanseatic League, trade, power and wealth.
