Duration
5:00 Hours
Sit back and relax as you drive south to the ‘hidden treasure’ of Lüneburg city.
Lüneburg is historically connected with salt – the ‘white gold’ of the Middle Ages. The salt mines made Lüneburg a rich and powerful town and an important member of the ‘Hanseatic League’. To appreciate the beauty of this medieval city, your guide will host you on a stroll through the ‘Old Town’. As you wander through the small cobbled alleyways, you’ll discover many medieval houses as well as the historic Town Hall.
Enjoy some free time to explore the local Christmas Market, where the booths are decorated on the Brothers Grimm fairytale themes and transform Lüneburg's pedestrian streets into a magical fairytale world. Stroll through this winter wonderland, which many Germans have not yet discovered.
Enjoy a hot Glühwein and a traditional Bratwurst whilst being surrounded by festive merriment.
