Die Hanse I Faszinierende Zeitreise für Groß und Klein
In the organizer's words:
Experience the Hanseatic League
Salt and stockfish, power and privileges
The journey through time begins with the excavation site and an insight into the 1200-year history of Lübeck Castle Hill.
The tour then takes you to the forerunners of the Low German merchants' league at the mouth of the Neva in the north-west of present-day Russia. Here you can immerse yourself in the atmosphere of the year 1193, when courageous long-distance traders joined together to form trading communities.
The next production in Lübeck around 1226 shows the upswing of the cities in the Middle Ages - and thus also the rise of the merchants who steer the fortunes of the city in Lübeck.
Jump back in time to 1361 and experience the trading metropolis of Bruges with its colorful variety of goods. The power of the Hanseatic merchants, which manifested itself in the boycott of Flanders, is also evident here.
Just a few steps away, in the next room, the plague is raging. Almost a third of the population fell victim to it. Here you can find out how the pandemic and the economic crisis around 1367 affected trade and people's lives.
After this dark chapter, you will travel to London in 1478 and experience the atmosphere of Stalhof - the Hanseatic branch on the Thames with its trading and living quarters and a Rhenish wine tavern - up close and through multimedia.
Finally, the journey through time takes us from the era of the Hanseatic Days in the venerable Hanseatic Hall in Lübeck in 1518 to the city of Bergen in Norway in 1764, where we learn more about one of the most important trade routes, the export hit stockfish and the transition to a new era.
