Lüneburg 🌹 Salt - Roses - Brick Houses

Argitaratu: 11.07.2021

As I love the Lüneburg Heath so much, I finally want to explore this city. You can reach the place relatively well in the north, either by car or by Metronom (train).

When you leave the train station, you are initially confused because you practically walk straight into the next train station. So keep left, even if it looks like you are walking out of the city. And then turn right uphill.

On the left side, you will soon see the Ratsmühle and just behind it the water tower, which also has a viewing platform.

Soon you will reach 'Am Sande', where salt trading was carried out in earlier times. Back then, the street was not yet paved, hence the name. The square feels very bright to me, you can tell that this must have been a special point. I walk up and down the street. My gaze is mostly upward, I admire the old gables of the houses, which are mostly inclined just like the houses themselves, because the salt is mined below.

After I have walked back 'Am Sande', I turn left into the street 'Am Berge' and continue straight ahead. A tip for a break is 'Meier's Bratwurst' 🌭 in 'Auf dem Wüstenort'. Very cheap, very delicious. Soups, sausages, currywurst, everything hearty and tasty.

Continuing straight ahead on 'Am Berge', you will come across the Stintmarkt with small local restaurants on the banks of the Ilmenau. Pure medieval, you can feel those old times. You can see an old crane that used to load ships on the Ilmenau.

Along the Ilmenau, I discover very delicious ice cream next to Anna's Café. And conveniently, there are seating areas right by the river.

To the left, you can go to the old town hall, the gardens in Reitende-Diener-Strasse are particularly beautiful. (Where there is also a free restroom!🤫).

I go off the tourist path and now comes the best part of the city for me, 'Auf den Meeren'. Gothic brick houses continue, the original houses with their many flowers present a romantic and quiet atmosphere. Children play in front of the small houses, an art class is fascinated by this originality.

I go back through the touristy old town, where the street names are arranged according to the respective former professional groups, such as 'An der Münze', 'Schröderstrasse', 'Grapengiesserstrasse'.

If you like, you can visit the Lüne monastery. You continue straight ahead from Anna's Café under a subway along the Ilmenau, until you finally come across a bridge that you have to cross (unfortunately) with a lot of car traffic, and you enter a wooded area where after the train underpass, sudden tranquility sets in and you find yourself in the apple garden of the monastery. You can also visit this monastery from the inside. However, I was in the courtyard and in the herb garden, where the watercourses murmured soothingly.
