Lübeck: Farewell to the Brahms Institute-25 years of music history end!

A dramatic farewell and exciting news from Lübeck, Lauenburg and Ostholstein! Wolfgang Sandberger, the long-time director of the renowned Brahms Institute, held his last lecture at the Lübeck University of Music after 25 years. The musicologist proudly looked back on the grown Brahms Festival and the digitization of his institution. But that is not the end for Sandberger: in January he will take over the Possehl Foundation after replacing Max Schön. A real change of the guard!

The Lübeck swimming pools also have news: the St. Lorenz sports pool, since December 2022 in the renovation, is expected to reopen the end of the year. Björn Hoppe, the leader, announced that school classes can already use the bathroom and in the future a special area for toddlers and a price pool are available. A reason for joy for water rats and families!

shocking incidents in Lübeck

The police had their hands full on Friday night when an alcoholic false driver was stopped on the A1. With a breath alcohol value of 2.29 per thousand, the 47-year-old Lübeck was on the road with his Tesla and had already caused an accident on the road limitation. Fortunately, the driver and front passenger remained unharmed, but the driver's driver's license was immediately moved in. The police are now investigating road traffic - a dangerous game!

And as if that weren't enough, a shocking process at the Lübeck district court against three men from Bad Oldesloe began on Friday because of attempted manslaughter. In November 2023 there was a brutal argument, in which one of the defendants stood up with a knife on the victim, which was seriously injured and had to be operated on. The events of the past few days show that not everything is quiet in the region!
