Neue Horizonte Guided Tour

Sustainability in HafenCity

During the city tour "Neue Horizonte" from the HafenCity to the Elbe bridges, you will receive background information about the high sustainability standards of Hamburg's new city quarters.

In April 2026, HafenCity Hamburg GmbH opened “Hafen.City.Horizonte. – Forum for City & Future,” a new venue designed to bring the areas and themes of its urban development to life. It is located in the Baakenhafen district, right in the heart of the final major construction phase of HafenCity and near Grasbrook and the Billebogen. It brings the progress in these three areas in particular to life, as well as the central themes of sustainability and innovation. Multimedia exhibits and plans, as well as regular tours and other events, are part of the program, which is aimed at a professionally interested audience—such as developers and investors—as well as schoolchildren, college students, tourists, neighbors, and the general public.
