GPS City Rally Lübeck
Discover Lübeck in a playful way! Your GPS City Rally leads through the UNESCO World Heritage Old Town – from the iconic Holstentor gate via the Gothic St. Mary's Church to the famous Buddenbrook House. Team building with Hanseatic tradition, marzipan delights, and medieval flair.
City Rally in Lübeck – Team Building, Sightseeing and Team Challenge in One
Our city rally in Lübeck combines exciting puzzles, modern technology and exploring the city together into a varied team event. In small teams, participants compete against each other and collect as many points as possible within the given time. A special highlight on your route: Holstentor.
Equipped with a tablet PC and our specially developed event app, the teams set off on a varied route through Lübeck. Along the way they discover not only well-known sights and historic squares, but also hidden corners that many visitors would otherwise miss.
At every station new challenges await: sometimes knowledge and logical thinking are required, sometimes creativity, skill or team spirit. The programme is rounded off with entertaining photo and video challenges that provide plenty of fun and unforgettable memories.
Because many tasks are tailored specifically to Lübeck, participants get to know the city in a playful way while experiencing an exciting competition with the other teams. Through clever route planning and good cooperation, additional points can be earned – here it’s not only the right answers that count, but also strategy and teamwork.
GPS City Rally in Lübeck – Why Here?
Lübeck, the "Queen of the Hanseatic League," enchants with its fully preserved medieval old town, which has been a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1987. The iconic Holstentor, imposing Marienkirche and winding alleys with over 1,000 listed buildings tell of the glorious Hanseatic era. Culinary delights like the world-famous Niederegger marzipan and the literary tradition of the Buddenbrooks round off the experience.
The compact UNESCO Old Town on an island is perfect for exploring on foot. Around 50 challenges are distributed throughout the historic city area – trivia questions about Hanseatic history, photo challenges in front of the Holstentor, literature puzzles about the Buddenbrooks, and of course a sweet marzipan station.
