Lubeca

Lubeca is the medieval Latin name of the Hanseatic city of Lübeck . Lubeca is to be understood as the transfiguring allegory for the city of Lübeck from the 19th century and its importance (on a regional level) is identical to Germania for the German Empire , Helvetia for Switzerland , Britannia for Great Britain and Bavaria for Bavaria , the Brunonia for the city and country of Braunschweig or the Hammonia for Hamburg .
The allegorical city goddess Lubeca can be found, for example, on the highest decoration of the city, the commemorative coin Bene Merenti , designed by Adolph Menzel in 1835 , as the divine personification of the genius loci of Lübeck.
Derived from this, various companies in Lübeck bear this name:
- Lubeca-Werke GmbH , a former packaging and weapons manufacturer, see also Schmalbach-Lubeca
- Lubeca Lübeck Marzipan Factory v. Minden & Bruhns , a manufacturer of Lübeck marzipan
- Lubeca Versicherungskontor GmbH , a subsidiary of the Possehl Group
- Paket Logistik Lubeca , a contractual partner of DPD .
