The Cathedral of Ratzeburg, one of the oldest brick churches of Northern Germany, is a basilica with three naves. Its arches are supported by pillars and it is built in the form of a cross with a choir quadrangle and a halfround apse. The cathedral was founded in 1154, when Henry the Lion, Duke of Saxony, and Hartwich I, Archbishop of Hamburg, refounded the episcopal seat of Ratzeburg, and Evermodus became its first bishop. The cathedral was restored, and additions were made to it in the 15th century. The Cloister, on the north side of the Cathedral, was begun shortly after the completion of the Cathedral (ca. 1220). The cloistered courtyard is open for the public. The cathedral's foundation stone was laid on August 11, 1154, under the patronage of Heinrich the Lion, Duke of Saxony and Bavaria. It is one of the oldest church buildings in Schleswig-Holstein and is recognized as part of the group known as the "Lion Domes" due to its historical connections to Heinrich the Lion. The Ratzeburger Dom showcases a distinctive late Romanesque style, characterized by its robust brick construction. The building was completed around 1220 and features a cruciform layout, which was complemented by the addition of a cloister in the 13th century.

In Ratzeburg: Malerisch auf dem Palmberg gelegen, zwischen Dom und A. Paul Weber Haus, liegt das Kreismuseum Herzogtum Lauenburg. Schon 1660-1662 ließ Herzog Christian Louis von Mecklenburg hier ein prachtvolles Lustschloss mit vergoldeten Türmen errichten. Da er jedoch am Fundament sparte, wurde nur hundert Jahre später ein Neubau erforderlich, der bis heute mit seinen Nebengebäuden original erhalten ist. Bauherr dieser zweiten, als Sommerresidenz geplanten Anlage war Herzog Adolph Friedrich IV. von Mecklenburg-Strelitz. Er betrat sein Schloss jedoch nie, sondern überließ es dem Oberhauptmann von dem Knesebeck, der auch den Bau beaufsichtigt hatte. Nach der Nutzung als Herrenhaus wurde die Dom-Probstei 1840 im Haus eingerichtet. Im Jahr 1973 bezog dann das Kreismuseum Herzogtum Lauenburg mit seinen Sammlungen und Verwaltungsräumen dieses besondere Ensemble. Im selben Jahr eröffnete der Kreis Herzogtum Lauenburg in direkter Nachbarschaft mit dem A. Paul Weber Museum das zweite Kreismuseum, dass sich dem für die Region so wichtigen Künstler widmet.

Town Hall Lübeck is a medieval structure which was a 13th century cloth hall before it began to be used as a meeting place for the Upper Court of the Hanseatic Trading League. The Audience Hall door carved by the Lübeck master Tönnies Evers the Elder in 1573 which shows the Salomonic Judgement among other things, dates back to the Renaissance. The inscription above it written in the official language of the time, Low German, reads “Beide part schal ein richter horen und den ordel” which means: “A judge shall listen to both parties and then give his verdict.”
