Lubeck
On our tour of Lubeck, we were lucky enough to enjoy very beautiful weather, unlike our tour of Hafencity. Our delightful tourguide pointed out the crooked and sloping buildings due to their duration. We went down several very narrow streets that led to small open spaces with entrances to houses. We were told that these houses used to house up to 8 people per househould, resulting in a total of 80 people in extremely tiny living spaces. We also visited St. Mary's Church which was surprisingly colder than the outside temperature. We discovered the drastic change in temperature was due to the fact that the church has never been heated as it takes far too much money to heat such a large church. We also learned that the organ in the church is extremely elaborate. It takes the organ player about 30 minutes to just get up to the organ, depending on the physical state of the player. We were also told the story of the devil sitting outside of the church.
