The best city hikes and walks around Gudower Lake

This historic half-timbered house used to house a pharmacy... but you can only admire it from the outside.

Entrance to the town of Molln

Unfortunately, the butcher shop and farm shop are closed.

In the heart of Mölln's historic center stands the former town hall pharmacy, a building steeped in tradition that shaped the city's medical care for centuries. As a city-privileged pharmacy, it was not only a place for preparing medicines but also a social hub where news was exchanged and civic life unfolded. The facade, with its Baroque and Neoclassical elements, reflects the city's prosperity and self-confidence during that era. The building gains particular significance through a prominent guest: Samuel Hahnemann, the founder of homeopathy, lived and worked in Mölln for several months in 1812. During his stay, he used the town hall pharmacy as an important reference point for his medical studies and observations. His influence lends the building an additional cultural and historical dimension. www.moelln-tourismus.de/poi/alte-apotheke

St. Nicholas Church in Mölln is far more than a sacred building – it is the historic heart of the town and a silent witness to over 800 years of Christian culture. Situated high atop the Eichberg, it towers over the old town and, with its striking tower, shapes the cityscape like no other building. Built in the early 13th century, the church combines elements of brick Romanesque and Gothic architecture. Particularly impressive are the ornate wall paintings, the triumphal cross from the workshop of the Lübeck woodcarver Bernt Notke, and the delicate bronze baptismal font from 1509 – a work that not only bears religious significance but also reflects Mölln's close connection to the Hanseatic city of Lübeck. The church is dedicated to St. Nicholas, the patron saint of sailors and merchants – a reference to Mölln's historical role as a trading town on the Salt Road. Anyone entering the church immediately senses the special atmosphere: quiet, dignified, and yet vibrant with services, concerts, and congregational life. St. Nicolai is not a museum, but a place of encounter – between past and present, between people and history. A visit is worthwhile not only for believers, but for anyone who wants to be touched by architecture, art, and spirituality. https://www.moelln-tourismus.de/

The fountain on the market square in Mölln shows children reading made of bronze - and a cute dog. The square itself is large and invites you to linger in the sun.

The former town hall pharmacy was once located at Marktstraße 14. The most famous pharmacist to have produced medicine here in Mölln was Samuel Hahnemann, the founder of homeopathy. Around 1800, he lived in this house with his family. Local folklore makes no mention of a specific Mölln residence for the jester. It must be assumed that the pharmacy and the Holy Spirit Hospital are merely literary elements from the book "Thyl Eulenspiegel." According to this account, Eulenspiegel lived in Mölln first in the pharmacy before his death and then in the Holy Spirit Hospital. The pharmacy can only refer to the former town hall pharmacy at Marktstraße 14. The half-timbered building was erected at the beginning of the 17th century on medieval foundations. The prime location of the house with a cellar within Mölln's topography suggests that it was originally the residence of a family belonging to the patrician upper class. Therefore, it is possible that the attribution to Eulenspiegel is based on a tradition that preserved knowledge of the "bourgeois" residence of the presumed bailiff, Tilo dictus Ulenspegel. https://www.moelln-tourismus.de/poi/alte-apotheke
