Lübeck: Hanseatic City and Sea View

Here, every evening after work is a short vacation.

Feel-good capital between Hamburg and the Baltic Sea

We are fortunate to call an outstanding location home: Lübeck as a Hanseatic city with old town flair and cultural treasures; close proximity to the Baltic Sea; Schleswig-Holstein, the land between two seas; the cosmopolitan city of Hamburg just around the corner; and good connections to Scandinavia – this broadens horizons and clears the mind. Last but not least, the university's excellent location contributes to the fact that both regional roots and global networking are hallmarks of TH Lübeck. 

High quality of life

Lübeck is known as the feel-good capital of the North: since the Middle Ages, this small, elegant Hanseatic city with its unique blend of high culture and commerce has combined the best of different worlds. Tradition and innovation, high-tech and craftsmanship, culture and nature. Our northern beauty, like our big Hanseatic sister Hamburg, has preserved the charm of an authentic port city – but everything is within walking distance. Those who live and work here enjoy both: work and life. Here, every evening after work is a short vacation.

Living and working in Lübeck – the economic development agency here shows just how well this fits together.

 

A first-class trade network

Trade has played a prominent role in Lübeck since the Middle Ages - and continues to do so today. Lübeck owes its economic strength to a mix of long-established companies and forward-looking industries, particularly in the fields of medicine, health, mechanical engineering, nutrition, and the maritime economy. Right at the heart of it all and with excellent connections: Technische Hochschule Lübeck.

Lübeck is the feel-good capital for…

  • Old-town fans with a love of art and culture
  • Free spirits who like to think beyond the horizon
  • Lovers of clear air and clear words
  • Businesspeople who value handshake deals
  • Family-minded people who find big cities too loud and villages too quiet
