Workers' Safety Commission to Develop Plan for Radiation Risk Safeguards
Lübeck, Germany, is set to introduce new parking fees that will significantly impact tourists visiting the city, particularly during popular events like the Travemünde Week. The new rates, effective from June 1, 2025, will see tourists paying €1.60 per 30 minutes or €12 for a day pass[1].
The new pricing structure applies to a multitude of parking spaces in the area near the Baltic Sea, making it more expensive for visitors to secure convenient parking during peak tourist seasons. However, the increased costs are intended to balance demand during these busy periods[1].
For residents, while specific resident parking fees have not been detailed, it is common for German cities to offer discounted or permit parking arrangements. The exact details for Lübeck's residents remain unclear[1].
The new rates are particularly relevant at the Baltic Sea coastside of Lübeck, especially during major events that attract a large number of visitors[1][2]. Visitors can opt to save money by choosing public transport or parking farther away from popular venues.
The city aims to relieve and better utilize existing parking spaces with these new regulations. Previously, hourly parking cost 1.20 euros, and daily parking cost 4 euros. Under the new system, hourly parking costs 3.30 euros, and daily parking costs 12 euros[1].
These increased parking fees in Lübeck are part of an effort to manage parking demand during peak tourist season and encourage the use of alternative transport options.
