ONLY WOMEN AND THE MOVIE "NOSFERATU".
This beautiful place is considered one of the largest foundation courtyards in Lübeck. Since 1639 it has served as a residence for the widows of boatmen and merchants, therefore, from what an inhabitant of that enclosure explained to me, those who live there are only women. The woman, very polite and smiling, by the way, gave my husband and me a little tour and we were able to see the most hidden and spectacular places in the patio. In other words, the backyard is bigger than people imagine.
Hours are not flexible. My husband and I were extremely lucky as we were unaware of the limited hours. Luckily, we got there before noon, which is when they close. The backyard is not always open, so you have to get good information at the tourist office.
On the other hand, this place served as the setting for a small shot of the German horror film, NOSFERATU. This film was made in the year 1922, therefore, as I am a faithful lover of this genre of cinema, I wanted to travel to Wismar in 2022 to celebrate the 100th anniversary of this production.

Heute wohnen in den Häusern Studenten, kleine Familien oder Rentner - Menschen aller Art! Diese pflegen die süßen Hinterhöfe und geben ihnen einen besonderen Charme. Wirklich sehenswert!
Beachte: Da hier Menschen wohnen, solltest du bitte deren Privatsphäre achten, wenn du die Lübecker Hinterhöfe...
