Willy Brandt. A political life in the 20th century.

The Willy Brandt House Lübeck is the place for contemporary history in the birthplace of the first Social Democratic German Chancellor and later Nobel Peace Prize winner.

Whether as a young Social Democrat, Nazi opponent and political refugee, or later as a politician and statesman, Willy Brandt's lifelong commitment to democracy is still inspiring today. Like hardly anyone else, he changed the Federal Republic of Germany and stood up for peace and freedom in Europe and the world. The permanent exhibition is dedicated to this political life and offers a fascinating walk through the history of the 20th century. The multimedia and interactive permanent exhibition on Willy Brandt's political life and work invites visitors to critically examine history and the present.

Arriving by car

By bus from the central station with bus numbers 1, 11, 21, 31 and 34, from the Stadthalle with bus numbers 4 and 32, getting off at bus stop “Katharineum” (50 m walk), and from the Burgtor with all numbers except number 10, stopping at “Koberg” (100 m).

If coming by car, it is best to park at the canal (follow traffic sign: Parkplätze Ost) and walk up Glockengiesserstrasse (500 m), since there is no possibility of parking directly at the house.
