Hamburg's South

CITY AREA PORTRAIT Welcome to the south of Hamburg!

Or more precisely in Harburg and Finkenwerder. Historic and modern architectural styles meet around the Harburg inland port. A bit similar to Hamburg's HafenCity. On the other hand, Finkenwerder still has the cosy charm of a fishing village - a completely different Hamburg unfolds here, with rural features. Harburg and Finkenwerder are also a good starting point for exploring the Hamburg metropolitan region.
