TREASURE TROVES

EXPLORATIONS BEHIND OLD AND NEW WALLS

When art and culture inspire or even polarise, when we are challenged to question our own boundaries, recognise new perspectives and reflect, this is when we can be deeply moved and enriched. Sometimes even without really noticing it. There are some questions we can’t find answers to. Sometimes, colours and shapes can captivate us. Works of art can appear crazy at times and clichéd at others. There is no right or wrong. Follow your curiosity and open up to the stories told by the museums in Lübeck’s Old Town. Thirteen museums enrich UNESCO’s World Heritage site of Lübeck and can easily be reached on foot. Take a peek behind the scenes and get to know Lübeck’s three famous Nobel Prize Laureates.

Tip: All the cultural establishments open their doors and hearts for the Museum Night every year, offering exceptional glimpses of their world and an unforgettable experience! One ticket will allow you to conquer the cultural summer’s night.

Imagination is more important than knowledge, because knowledge is limited.
