Hamburg celebrates St. Patrick's Day
On 17 March, all of Ireland sees green. The island celebrates its national saint St. Patrick. Legend has it that the bishop converted the country to Christianity. The day of commemoration is celebrated worldwide with festivities and parades. In honour of St. Patrick, Guinness consumption increases many times over worldwide. Irish flags fly through the air, the cloverleaf becomes the most worn accessory and goblins come out of their hiding places. Hamburg is also celebrating the great day of the Irish. We show you the most beautiful Irish Pubs in Hamburg.
1.Paddy's
The Irish love their patron saint, St. Patrick. It is not surprising that numerous Irish pubs adorn themselves with his name. Or rather his nickname: Paddy. The Paddy's Bar in Hamburg's old town follows this example. Since 2013 there is Guinness and live music à la Tempel Bar not far from the town hall. On St. Patrick's Day the Irish flag is waved and a toast is made to the land of goblins and fairies.

She is the eponym of Dublin's unofficial anthem: Molly Malone. The young girl is known far beyond the Irish borders and is a popular motif for works of art of all kinds. In Hamburg an Irish Pub was named after her. The cult pub is enthroned on Hans-Albers-Platz and is a guarantee for successful party nights. Live music can be heard here until the early morning hours.

3.Shamrock Pub
The Shamrock Pub owes its name to Saint Patrick. The Shamrock, a three-leaf clover, is one of the attributes of the bishop. Legend has it that the national saint explained the Trinity through the leaf during the missionary work in Ireland. True or not, the Shamrock Pub in the Karoviertel is an Irish Pub as it is written in the book: small, smoky and casual. Many Irish people feel at home here - hundreds of kilometres away from the Emerald Isle.
