Quote:
"The town's name btw has slavic and wagric roots, the name stems from the ancient word "Liubice", that means "the lovely", it then was combined with an ancient lower-German word, "beke", which means creek, refering probably to the two small rivers Trave and Wakenitz that completely surround the old town, making it essentially a complelte island. "Lübeck" means: the lovely one that is surrounded by two rivers"
I would think that they will one day be in much danger from flooding
