Motte with a chicken yard and street art

MOTTE is an association that shapes its district like hardly any other party. If offers activities, courses and workshops for children, young people and adults.

The former chocolate factory MOTTE attracts guests far beyond the district's borders with many creative activities and events that stand for diversity. And even if no special event is taking place at the moment, the Hühnerhof (yes, you read right!) and the graffiti are worth a visit.

For strolling, having a coffee, taking a walk or having some delicious food – situated directly at the Elbe and traversed by parks, Altona & Ottensen are considered to be charming and diverse districts with character. Brick walls create a rather rough atmosphere in Altona, while it is lively and colourful in Ottensen.
