On Ulmenstrasse and at the beginning of Ohlsdorfer Strasse, you can still find some well-maintained bleaching houses from the mid-19th century. After the Great Fire of Hamburg in 1842, progressive industrialisation and urban redevelopment, some sections of the population were moved out to nearby surrounding areas. So the bleachers made up the largest group of new Winterhude residents.

Outstanding German civil engineering Alter Elbtunnel

When the old Elbe Tunnel, also called St. Pauli Elbe Tunnel, opened in 1911, it was a technical sensation. Today, it is a nostalgic and lovingly tended piece of Hamburg history – and has already celebrated its 100th anniversary.

Hamburg Michel St. Michaelis Church

Hamburg has many large churches - but only one "Michel": On its platform 106 metres high, there is a fabulous (and breezy) view of Hamburg, the port and the surrounding countryside - one that should not be missed!
