Step back in time on a walking tour of Hamburg’s Old Town. Wander from medieval foundations at the Trostbrücke to the grandeur of the neo-Renaissance Town Hall, as you explore Hamburg’s rise in the Hanseatic League and its legacy as a powerful trading hub.
Along the way, uncover how the city was shaped by the destruction of the Second World War and its remarkable post-war reconstruction. Included is a trip to Hamburg's St. Nicholas WW2 museum and 360° viewing platform to discover Hamburg's transition during the dark WW2 days.
See the stunning neo-Renaissance Town Hall, St. Peter’s Church, the city’s oldest parish church, and Hammaburgplatz, once the centre of Hanseatic trade and the oldest archaeological site.
Cross the Trostbrücke, a historic bridge with medieval significance, and visit St. Nicholas Church, a striking war memorial and former world’s holy tallest building.
Stroll along Deichstraße, Hamburg’s oldest surviving street with charming merchant houses. Stop for coffee at one of Hamburg’s exceptional third-generation roasters. Finally, visit St. Michael’s Church (Michel), the city’s most famous baroque church.
