Stadtpark

Hamburger Stadtpark
Hamburg

The city´ s biggest park (180 hectares) lies in the north of Hamburg. At the beginning of the 19th century, the city of Hamburg acquired the area to develop a public park for its citizens for recreational purposes. The park was finished in the 1920s. Divided by avenues and hedges into large individual areas which have a symmetrical lay-out and the confined planting - apart from the forest-like sections -, it follows clear geometrical patterns. After plantings had been destroyed during the war or cut down, the park was restored in the 1950s in accordance with the original plans. Different areas of the park: A huge green space with the observatory at one end (former water tower, 1913-1915), a forest-like park, open-air swimming pool with restaurant and fast food, play-grounds, open-air stage, country house and restaurant.

City Nord
Überseering - 22297 Hamburg
The concept for this office city was developed at the end of the 1950s and was, at that time, one of the largest and most ambitious projects in European civil engineering. With its office solitaires and generous spaces, City Nord has become a prominent and unique trademark in Hamburg's townscape.
Planetarium Hamburg
Linnering 1 - 22299 Hamburg
The former water tower in Hamburg´ s city park, the Stadtpark, built between 1913 and 1915, has been used as an observatory since 1930. The cylindrical, 60-metres high red brick building was designed by the Hamburg architect Fritz Schuhmacher. Europe´ s biggest projection dome (?) is 13 metres high and 21 metres in diameter and made of copper. Apart from regular shows and a permanent exhibition about the history of astronomy, concerts and lectures also take place at the observatory. One can enjoy a wonderful view of the park and of north Hamburg from the observation platform.
Museum der Arbeit
Wiesendamm 3 - 22305 Hamburg
The „Museum der Arbeit“ – which could be translated as “museum of labour" - is located on the former site of the New-York Hamburger Gummi Compagnie in Hamburg-Barmbek. The company was built in 1871 and constantly extended. It is now one of the oldest surviving factory complexes in Hamburg. The museum's exhibition opened in 1997 in the building of the "new factory" after careful restoration of the historical building and fabrics of 1908. The redevelopment of another part of the historic factory complex, the "old factory" was completed in 2006. Since then, the museum comes with an area of 5,000 m² on three major exhibition and event spaces. They are available unless the museum does need the space itself. The entire museum is wheelchair accessible and features load lifts. All rooms are secured by an alarm system. No exclusive right for catering needs to be obeyed. The museum is centrally located. It can also be reached with the historic saloon car of the local public transport service from the near Barmbek-Station for example or directly over its own steamboat jetty on the Osterbekkanal. Sufficient parking is available on the site. In the foyer of the museum, the historical character of the building is clearly visible. The 300m ² space is an excellent opportunity to carry out events. The furniture of the factory café can be used. The 3rd floor of the “new factory" with 650m ² floor space was extended in 1996. The area is characterized by a clear, contemporary architecture. It has a modern infrastructure including toilet facilities near by and is easily accessible by elevator. The ground floor of the “old factory" has been used since 1999 for events and was renovated in 2006. The room with 525m ² floor space is dominated by the original refurbished industrial architecture. It also has a modern infrastructure including toilet facilities and could be darkened. The ground floor level location has direct access to the historic courtyard which enables the extension of the event space with tents for example. The courtyard is spacious and equipped with historic road pavement.
