No one is going to force you to pick up a chess board and play.

You can also just come here to enjoy the generously sized but cheap snacks, in a cosy atmosphere. In summer the beer garden lures people outside. From here you can only marvel at the building you just left, a beautiful station house, built in 1913, worth a trip to Barmbek itself.

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.
