Beach hopping on the Elbe

The floating dock - called the "Landungsbrücken" (landing stages) – is 700 metres long. Harbour tours and the HADAG steamers to Finkenwerder, Oevelgönne and Blankenese leave from this water "station". Impressive luxury cruisers also dock here from time to time.

Every Sunday morning since 1703 Hamburg's most traditional market has been trading in just about anything and everything that isn't nailed down.

A few years ago, a particularly prominent office building was built at the Fischereihafen with DOCKLAND.

On 22 November 2024, the new visitor and information centre of the Oevelgönne Museum Harbour will be officially opened. Built on a historic floating pontoon, it not only offers exciting insights into Hamburg's maritime history, but also a panoramic view of the harbour and its treasures.

The Elbe beach near Övelgönne is a pretty hot tip in summer. When the temperatures rise and the sun burns, nothing is more refreshing than a jump into the cool water.

On sunny days, the river bank at Oevelgönne below Elbchaussee is as busy as the Copacabana.

The Blankenese Treppenviertel offers its residents a delightful view of the Elbe and of the passing ships.

Wittenberge is located in the northwest of Brandenburg, exactly halfway along the Elbe between Hamburg and Berlin. Here the Elblandfestspiele take place annually.

Waldpark Marienhöhe is located in the district of Rissen on former brickyard premises. These were given the name "Gut Marienhöhe" in 1871, which is where the current name of the park comes from.
