Wilhemsburg & Veddel

CITY AREA PORTRAIT Welcome to Wilhelmsburg & Veddel!

The Elbe island of Wilhelmsburg lies nestled between the North and South Elbe and impresses with its mixture of industrial arms and turbulent life with multicultural flair. The Wilhelmsburg Reiherstieg quarter with its old apartments, cafés and shops is very popular. Some also call it "little Berlin" because it's changing. And also the small neighbouring island "Die Veddel" has a lot to offer.

    IBA Energiebunker

    The Energiebunker is much more than a regenerative power station - it is a place to learn about the building's history and to enjoy a coffee with a view.

CITY AREA PORTRAIT Hamburg North

Hamburg North is a wonderful place to live. The city centre can be reached in no time, and there is plenty of nature nearby. Everything goes at a slightly slower pace here. But there are still many things to see and do.

CITY AREA PORTRAIT Hamburg South

Around Harburg's inland harbour, historical and modern architectural styles merge. It's maybe even a bit like HafenCity. Finkenwerder, on the other hand, has the charm of a fishing village. – Here, you see a quite different, almost rural side of Hamburg. Harburg and Finkenwerder are also good starting points for discovering the Hamburg metropolitan area.
