Führung "Michel, Stadthöfe & Rathaus" - Weihnachts-Special
- City Walks
In Hamburg you come across history, stories and secrets every few meters. We want to tell stories and reveal (dark) secrets.
Note: This Christmas special combines three Christmas markets, one of which we will visit as part of the tour (Marché de Noël). Before our tour, you are welcome to visit the St. Michaelis Christmas market (only 29 Nov - 1 Dec); the historic Christmas market in front of the town hall is the end of the tour (shared drink not excluded).*
We begin our journey at the main church St. Michaelis (at the Luther monument to the left of the main portal), take a look at and into the Krameramtsstuben and pass a shiny lucky charm by the side of the road. At the Stadthöfe, dark history and the shining present collide. And the town hall, which was only inaugurated in 1897, will be our fitting final point.*
- What special significance does October 19th have for St. Michel?
- What secret does the grille on the church ceiling hold?
- What connects the Gängeviertel with a Hamburg original?
- What dark secret is hidden in the city courtyards?
…and what does the town hall fountain have to do with air conditioning?
You will find out. This and much more.
Note: Normally, the nave of St. Michael's Church and the hall of the town hall (no other interior rooms of the town hall!) are part of this tour. However, we cannot guarantee access, as any closures are not our responsibility.
* = A visit to the Marché de Noël with a hot drink is planned (not included in the price). You can find an overview of Hamburg's Christmas markets HERE.
