About Hamburg, Germany

Founded by Charlemagne in the ninth century, Hamburg is the second largest port in Europe. Although it's said that hamburgers originated here, the city is better known for its musical heritage. Both Mendelssohn and Brahms were born here and even the Beatles played in a few of Hamburg's small pubs before striking it big. Surprisingly pastoral for an industrial center, it offers numerous retreat opportunities to parks and lakes in the area. Visitors should check out the Rathaus, the seat of local government, as well as the old harbor, which is still a bustling area. Binnenalster is the town's commercial hub, offering shopping and dining and the famous waterfront Fischmarkt, which provides a lively spectacle each weekend. Museum-goers should visit the Kunsthalle, while architecture buffs should check out the gothic St. Jakobi church and the Expressionist treasure, the Chilehaus.

Hamburg, Germany Factoid
A trip to the Krameramtswohnungen is a must! This tiny backyard of seventeenth-century housing is the last remaining in the city. The widows of storekeepers were prohibited from carrying on their husband's trade after his death. Therefore, these houses were built as retirement homes for the widows.
