The Founding Quarter
Braunstraße • Fischstraße • Alfstraße • Mengstraße • Neue Querstraße • Gerade Querstraße • Einhäuschenquerstraße
This year’s host neighbourhood in Lübeck – the Founding Quarter – is excited to get to know you better. The former merchants’ quarter, in the shadow of the majestic St. Mary’s Church, was almost completely destroyed during the Second World War. Now, it shines in new, modern splendour, blending in with the historical architecture of the district. Numerous historical tours of the district await you, as well as interesting cellar tours that provide insights into the archaeological work that preceded the redevelopment of the founding district. The streets become a lively stage for music, dancing, children’s interactive programmes and culinary delights.

Regionality is an important aspect when it comes to sustainability, which makes it very convenient that Lübeck is so diverse! From gastronomy and arts and crafts, to music and non-profit organisations, we have it all! Bülck Kaffee has invited regional partners to impress you with food and drinks and local arts and crafts.
Lübeck's Club Mile

Not everyone is fortunate enough to be permanently located in the festival district. So, we’ve created some space there during the HanseKulturFestival. Visit the stalls of Lübeck's associations and clubs, who present themselves on one of the main festival streets. Each club has come up with very special activities to help you experience their work. Many of them do charitable work on a voluntary basis and look forward to sharing their passion with you.
