Hamburg | Old town + Jungfernstieg

प्रकाशित: 13.09.2023

Today we're going to the heart of Hamburg! ❤️

From the Ohnsorgtheater near the main train station we turned to Hamburg's shopping mile: Mönckebergstrasse, or Mö for short. Short detours took us to St. Jacobi and the Chilehaus. The latter is an impressive building with an idiosyncratic architecture that is reminiscent of a ship's hull.

We then went to the Binnenalster, past the Jungfernstieg to Stephansplatz and back through the Hanseatic Quarter to the impressive town hall. The Hygieia fountain is in the inner courtyard. The fountain was built in memory of the cholera epidemic of 1892 and is decorated with a bronze figure of the Greek goddess of health.

We continued over the Trostbrücke to the St. Nikolai memorial. The church burned down during an Allied attack in 1943. The church ruins are intended to commemorate the victims of war and tyranny from 1933 to 1945.

We then paid a visit to the lemon jette. From 1854 to 1894, the 1.30 m tall woman wandered around Hamburg day and night, earning a meager living by selling lemons. This monument commemorates them. Further information about this Hamburg original at www.Hamburg.de

After a short stop at St. Michaelis, or Michel for short, we marveled at the Krameramtsstuben. The houses were built in the 17th century. The widows of silk and ironmongers lived here at the time. In the small alley you get a good impression of the living conditions back then.
