Lübeck is a city in Northern Germany. With around 220,000 inhabitants, it is the second-largest city on the German Baltic coast and the second-largest city in the state of Schleswig-Holstein, after its capital of Kiel, and is the 36th-largest city in Germany.

    Lübeck’s historic old town, located on a densely built-up island, is Germany’s most extensive UNESCO World Heritage Site. With 6 church towers surpassing 100 metres (330 ft), Lübeck is the city with the highest number of tall church towers worldwide. Nicknamed the “City of the Seven Towers” (Stadt der Sieben Türme), Lübeck’s skyline is dominated by the seven towers of its five Protestant main churches: St Mary’s, Lübeck Cathedral, St James’, St Peter’s, and St Giles’s. The cathedral from 1173-1341 was the first large brickwork church in the Baltic region. St Mary’s Church from 1265-1351 is considered the model on which most of the other Brick Gothic churches in the sphere of influence of the Hanseatic League are based. It is the second-tallest church with two main towers after Cologne Cathedral (which only surpassed it in 1880), has the tallest brick vault, and is the second-tallest brickwork structure after St. Martin’s Church in Landshut.
