Hamburger Kammerspiele

High-class theatre entertainment

The Hamburger Kammerspiele is one of Hamburg's most famous theatres and offers its visitors high-quality theatre performances almost every day.

Hamburger Kammerspiele – Theatre with Conviction

A place that touches the soul: Since 1945, the Hamburger Kammerspiele has been staging powerful performances – with stories that go straight to the heart. Founded by Ida Ehre, the theatre continues to stand for courage, humanity, and cultural awakening.

Experience theatre up close

In the charming theatre house in Rotherbaum, you’ll find a varied programme – from contemporary plays on social issues to moving monologues. The stage is close, the atmosphere intense. Stars such as Katharina Schüttler, awarded in 2024 for her role in Prima Facie, make every evening an unforgettable experience. Ideal for culture enthusiasts, city travellers, and all those looking for theatre beyond the mainstream.

A worthwhile next stop

Just a stone’s throw away, the Museum at Rothenbaum (MARKK), the charming Café Leonar, and a stroll through the Grindel district make for the perfect complement.

CITY AREA PORTRAIT Eimsbüttel & Eppendorf

Here, one can find magnificent old building façades, local and exquisite restaurants as well as fancy boutiques and owner-operated shops. While Eppendorf is rather fancy, one can feel the hanseatic serenity in Eimsbüttel. Both districts offer much green and water and are hence with good reason very popular neighbourhoods in Hamburg.
