Germany - Lubeck: River Trave from St. Petri zu Lubeck

 

From the 50 metre high lookout platform on the spire of the Peterkirche, which can be reached with a lift, you can look directly on to the market and over the city.

 

The Trave (IPA: [ˈtʁaːvə]) is a river of Schleswig-Holstein in northern Germany. It is approximately 124 kilometres long, running from its source near the village of Gießelrade in Ostholstein to Travemünde where it flows into the Baltic Sea. It passes through Bad Segeberg, Bad Oldesloe, and Lübeck, where it is linked to the Elbe-Lübeck Canal. It is navigable for sea-going vessels from the Baltic to the Lübeck ports. The road from Lübeck to Travemünde goes through Herren Tunnel, which is a toll tunnel underneath the Trave.
