Lübeck is located in northern Germany on the Bay of Lübeck. Holstentor – the fifteenth-century Holsten Gate is the symbol of this Hanseatic city. It consists of two towers with characteristic roofs in the shape of cones, connected with the transition at the stepped gable. This late-medieval building has four floors. Currently, the building hosts the Holsten Gate Museum. The Holsten Gate appeared on banknotes, coins, as well as countless photographs and postcards promoting Lübeck. The gate is also displayed in the logo of the company known as Niederegger producing marzipan sweets.
