Unique location
It is the quiet and beautiful location at the old Ilmenau
harbour which makes the Bergström so unique. From
here the sights of our 1000-year-old town are easily
reached on foot.
| On request, we organize and book
– together with Lüneburg Marketing
GmbH – the individual program for your holiday
or the events of your conference. |
Lüneburg
In this lively town, medieval charm is skilfully
combined with the demands of modern times. Cobbled
pavements invite you to explore the past and to
take a leisurely stroll through the town center.
Today the gabled roofs shelter attractive boutiques,
traditional restaurants and – this is what
Lüneburg is also famous for! – a number
of quaint pubs. |

Guided Lüneburg Tours
We gladly make your reservation for interesting
guided tours: visit historical courtyards or accompany
famous Lüneburg citizens through their town,
go on an evening tour with the Lüneburg city
guards or – an insider tip – follow
the night watchman and his wife. Or maybe you
would prefer a carriage ride through the town
center? |

Culture
Be it museums, churches or graves dating from
the Stone Age – there is plenty to see in
and around Lüneburg.
Here is a choice selection of sights to choose
from: |

|
Town Hall
Approx. 500 years old, Lüneburg’s town
hall is one of the most beautiful historical buildings
in Northern Germany. The magnificent building is
– so to speak – a stone chronicle of
the town’s history. Different and originally
separate sections of the building grew together
in the course of time to form a unique ensemble.
The oldest parts date as far back as 1200. The eastern
side facing the market square was built at the beginning
of the 18th century and is crowned by
a seemingly delicate tower with chimes made of Meissen
china. |

 |
| |
|
|
Water Tower
The water tower is one of the most impressive examples
of early industrial architecture in Lüneburg.
It was built in 1906/7 on the remains of the medieval
ramparts. |
|
 |
| |
|
|
German Salt Museum
A visit to the German salt museum is really worthwhile.
It was built on the site of the former salt works
where salt was mined from 956 until 1976. Experience
history and view 230 million year-old rock salt,
follow the ancient salt roads and watch the boiling
of salt in old lead pans. |

Leisure Activities in and around
Lüneburg
Keen cyclists find everything they could wish
for in the lovely countryside between the river
Elbe and the famous Lüneburg heath: unspoilt
nature, good roads and signposting, plenty of
interesting sights, a great variety of restaurants
and accommodation suitable for cyclers’
needs.
Highlights of the region are the largest heath
area in Europe, the natural preserve “Elbtalaue”
and many attractive towns and villages located
in the heath.
To go hiking in Lüneburg surroundings is
to relax and enjoy both nature and culture. If
you like, we will put together the most beautiful
routes in the heath, Lüneburg’s surroundings
and the “Elbtalaue” for you.
Another highlight of the area is golf. Players
of different handicaps have the choice between
7 first-class golf courses and beautiful natural
courses. |

| The region offers plenty of opportunities
for boat rides. Discover the countryside by boat
either on the river Ilmenau, the river Elbe or the
“Elbe-Seiten” canal. The canal-lift
in Scharnebeck – the biggest in Germany –
is a special attraction. Rent a canoe, a rowing
or a pedalo boat and enjoy untouched heath countryside,
lush fens along the Elbe – the river will
lead you to the most attractive sites in Lüneburg’s
surroundings. Apart from the ocean, we treat you
to everything: from meandering rivers through the
heath, moor lakes to indoor swimming pools and fun-baths.
Lüneburg’s thermal baths are still supplied
with 4% salt water and in summer outdoor swimming
pools and small natural lakes beckon with cool water.
Many have small beaches descending gradually into
the water – ideal for small children. |

Lüneburg with its low traffic-density is

well-known course in Luhmühlen where the
German and European championships in Military
take place. |
