Additional Information

Home to 70,000 inhabitants, Lüneburg is a quaint town that exhibits a wonderful blend of historic elegance and modern vibrancy, furthered by a rich salty narrative. Located by the Elba River, its over-a-thousand-year existence bears witness to the passage of time. This northern German town is renowned for its beauty.

Take a leisure stroll in the western Old Town, where you’ll find buildings slightly off center, characteristically cracked often attributed to the town’s ‘salt of the earth’. The medieval timber houses, alongside the lavishness of the Renaissance age undeniably makes the town a popular backdrop for film sets.

Historically referred to as ‘white gold,’ salt has always been valuable. The town boasts a 15th-century patrician property, today serving as government offices and a state-funded residence for writers.
