You're standing at St Peter's Church in Lübeck, the Petrikirche, as the locals call it. Start by looking up at the tower. It rises 108 metres from an unusually wide base on the west side. And here's the good part: you can climb it. There's a viewing platform fifty metres up, with the whole city spread out below you.
