Safe to the 7-tower triathlon: Traffic information for Lübeck on Sunday!

Sportzentrum Falkenwiese, 23558 Lübeck, Deutschland - in Lübeck, where tradition and sport go hand in hand, there will be a very special event tomorrow: the 7-tower triathlon. While the preparations are in full swing, the city is already shaped by the harbing of this sporting challenge. The event will take place on Sunday, June 15, 2025, in the Falkenwiese (Falkenstraße) sports center and promises an exciting experience for both participants and spectators.

But that's not all: the road users should prepare for various impairments. The closures start at 8 a.m. and run until 3 p.m. The Gustav-Radbruch-Platz is blocked from the Burgtor Bridge junction, which requires a detour via Fährstraße. The Travemünder Allee in the direction of the Menentunnel is also severely restricted during this period. In order to avoid the chaos in road traffic, it is advised to avoid the affected roads by far or to switch to public transport instead.

a sporty highlight for the region

The 7-tower triathlon has established itself as a fixture in the sporty calendar of Lübeck. With over 300 starters this year, the great interest in this event is evident. Jan-Peter Weiß from SV Breitling even took part despite a recently survived cold. At the premiere of the new competition route, he was able to start with a quick swimming time of 500 meters and finally secure the 3rd place in his age group. Such successes show how exciting and challenging the competition is.

The eventual participation in a relay competition about the middle distance, in which the “A3K Rostock” team won with outstanding 3:56:40 hours, gives the spectators additional goosebumps feeling. Such competitions are of great importance not only for the athletes, but also for the entire region. At the same time, a solid supporting program is offered around the event that brings residents and visitors together.

security always in focus

Unfortunately, the exuberant mood on the last triathlon was clouded by a serious accident on the bike route when a vehicle got on the track in an unauthorized manner and an athlete falling. The sports community wishes the victim a quick recovery and strongly reminds of the need for security measures to prevent such incidents. The organizers and authorities are required to reconcile security and sporting fairness.

The topic of sustainability is also part of the triathlon. With the aim of minimizing environmental pollution during major events, organizations such as the German Sport University Cologne rely on environmentally friendly planning. Here, fabric electricity is used to evaluate and reduce the ecological effects of sporting events. In the context of the 7-tower triathlon, it is important that these considerations are also taken into account in order to send a positive signal for the future.

Tomorrow and experience how the Lübeck community gets together to celebrate sports and common sense!
