The Michel – officially St. Michael's Church – is one of Hamburg's most famous landmarks. The Michel Tower Experience offers you the opportunity to discover Hamburg from a completely new perspective and experience the Hanseatic city from one of its most impressive vantage points.
At 132 metres high, the tower of St. Michael's has dominated the city's skyline for centuries. The tower experience combines impressive history, baroque architecture and a panorama that uniquely showcases Hamburg's character.
An experience with a view over the whole of Hamburg: The viewing platform of St. Michael's can be easily reached by lift after climbing 52 steps to the first floor. You can also take the remaining 400 steps to the platform for a more athletic challenge. Once at the top, you will be rewarded with an impressive 360-degree view of the Elbe, the Port of Hamburg, the Speicherstadt, the HafenCity and the historic city centre.Maritime and architectural history in the heart of the Hanseatic city: St. Michael's Church is much more than just a viewing point. As one of Hamburg's most important landmarks, it tells the story of the city's eventful history: from the days of merchants and dock workers to modern, cosmopolitan Hamburg. Inside, the Baroque design is fascinating, while outside, Germany's largest church clock tower makes St. Michael's an unmistakable landmark.
A special highlight is the traditional tower bell ringing: every day, a chorale sounds from the tower floor at 10 a.m. and 9 p.m. – a lively ritual and an emotional moment that makes a visit an extraordinary experience.
