Tips for adventures in the dark

It doesn't really matter by day or by night - Hamburg is always beautiful. But if you have not yet been able to admire the city from above, you should definitely pay a visit to the night Michel.

Especially on warm summer nights, it is worth climbing up to the top of the Michel: Elphilharmonie, harbour and Alster shine in an incomparable sea of lights and the stars are within reach. Every Friday and Saturday the Michel opens its doors for you from 18.00 to 22:30.

The clocks tick differently on St. Pauli. It is not surprising that the weekly market is held at an unusually late hour. The market stalls are open every Wednesday from 4 pm to midnight.

Shopping, feasting and enjoying in the dark, why not?
