In November 2015, our Tourist Information Office was the first in North Germany to be awarded the Seal of Quality for generation-friendly Shopping by Handelsverband Nord (HV Nord). Retail establishments that respond to the needs of customers of all ages with greater or lesser disability, are awarded this seal of quality. The orange sticker depicting a white shopping bag on wheels signals that the Tourist Information Office in Lübeck is “exceptionally generation-friendly”.
