Tour description

We start our walk through Hamburg's Neustadt in front of Dammtor station near the Wallanlagen and take a trip to Hamburg's oldest green space.

There, in this peaceful urban idyll, we explore the military past of this park and its importance for Hamburg's rise to a metropolis on the Elbe.

We look at Hamburg's urban planning in the 18th and 19th centuries and talk about the housing shortage then and now.
Explore the consequences of these wrong decisions, admire the visionary urban planning of the post-war period and the result of the last Gängeviertel renovation.

We will talk about what it takes to be a Hamburger and to be able to call yourself one.


Looking at the bourgeoisie and their privileges,
the arrogance of Hamburg politics.
The opportunities for advancement of rich and poor in 19th-century Hamburg.

I'll tell you about two well-known people from Hamburg whose life stories couldn't have been more different.

We'll break down Hamburg clichés and have a conversation about Hamburg originals and the story behind these "model citizens" with you.

Come with me through the New Town,
into the small town in the big city with all its contrasts.
