Region/Country: Region/Land: Lübeck, Holy Roman Empire
Lübeck was founded in the twelfth century at the Baltic Sea coast, and quickly became (one of) the most important centres of the developing Hanseatic network. Merchants from Lübeck were dominant in the Bergen stockfish trade until the late fifteenth century. The commercial significance of the city declined with the structural changes in the European economy and trade in the sixteenth century.
