Hamburg, Germany: the most detailed information about the city of Hamburg, the main attractions with photos and descriptions, location on the map.

City of Hamburg (Germany)

Hamburg is the second largest city in Germany, located on the banks of the Elbe River. This is one of the richest cities in the country, the largest port and a real "gateway to the world." Hamburg has been a center of European trade ever since it joined the Hanseatic League in the Middle Ages. This brought great wealth to the city and left a rich cultural and historical heritage. The maritime spirit and traditions of the Hanse permeate Hamburg through and through: from architecture and sights, to culture, food and the cries of seagulls in the streets.

Geography

Hamburg is located in northern Germany at the southern tip of the Jutland peninsula in an area that lies between continental Europe and Scandinavia. The city stands at the confluence of the Elbe and its tributary Alster. The administrative unit is the free Hanseatic city of Hamburg, bordering on the lands of Schleswig-Holstein and Lower Saxony.

The terrain is calm with slight elevation changes. The highest point is just over 100 meters above sea level. Surroundings - picturesque natural landscapes, lakes and parks, gardens and farmlands.

Climate

The climate of Hamburg is maritime with warm (sometimes cool) summers and mild winters. The warmest months are July and August. The coldest is January. Precipitation is distributed evenly throughout the year. From November to February in Hamburg it is often cloudy and damp. In winter, slight frosts and snowfalls are not uncommon.

Story

The main milestones in the history of Hamburg:

• 808 - Emperor Charlemagne ordered the foundation of a fortress at the confluence of the Elbe and Alster to defend against the Slavic tribes. A settlement grew up near the fortress, which gave life to the new city.
• 1189 - Emperor Frederick Barbarossa grants Hamburg the privileges of a free imperial city, which, together with its favorable location, turns the city into one of the trading centers of Europe.
• 1241 - Hamburg and the prosperous trading city of Lübeck entered into an alliance, which in the future turned into an association that we know as the Hanseatic League. This was a powerful impetus for the subsequent economic and cultural development of the city.
• 1264 - the city authorities issued a law on the protection of swans, which forbade the killing and eating of these birds. In Hamburg, they believe that as long as the swans live here, the city will grow and prosper (it is interesting that in Bremen there is such a belief about Roland).
• 1284 - a great fire that destroyed almost all the buildings of the city.
• 1350 - an epidemic of plague, during which half the population died.
• 1558 - the foundation of the stock market.
• 1810 - Napoleon's invasion.
• 1842 - another strong fire destroyed and damaged a third of the city and many historical sights
• 1871 - Hamburg becomes part of the German Empire with broad autonomy rights. Also, the port of the city becomes the second largest in Europe.
• 1892 - cholera outbreak, which was caused by the rapid growth of the city and poor water quality.
• 1945 - over 39,000 tons of bombs were dropped on Hamburg, destroying more than half of the city and 80% of the harbor.

Gastronomy

Historically, Hamburg has always had a variety of dishes and gastronomic traditions. Local sailors who went to other countries and the crews of foreign ships constantly brought something new to the Hamburg cuisine.

It is not surprising that the cafes and restaurants of Hamburg offer a huge variety of dishes that belong to a wide variety of cuisines. And in the city you can find a wide variety of dining options: from exclusive and prestigious restaurants to typical gastronomic cafes, from modern and stylish to traditional family restaurants.

Despite this, don't underestimate Hamburg cuisine, which can offer both simple and sophisticated traditional dishes. The most popular of them:

• Currywurst
• Franzbrötchen

Markets

Historically, markets have always been one of the main events in the life of Hamburg. And now in the largest city in northern Germany, there are quite a lot of weekly markets where you can buy food, and flea markets where you can find a lot of interesting things from household items to collectibles.

The most popular market in Hamburg is the fish market or the Fishmarkt. This is one of the oldest and most legendary markets in the city, which began its history in 1703. Located at St. Pauli Fischmarkt 2. Attention: The Fischmarkt is open on Sundays from 5.00 am to 9.30 am (from 7.00 am in winter).

In the Eppendorf district, the Isemarkt is held on Tuesdays and Fridays. This is the largest open-air market in Europe, where you can buy almost everything from food to books and tools. There is also a night market in Hamburg, which is based on Spielbudenplatz.

Every Saturday from 8.00 to 16.00, one of the most important flea markets, the Flohschanze, is held on Neuer Kamp. Here you can not only buy various interesting and collectible items, but also take a look at various curiosities.

• bus service is also quite developed and popular. It is very profitable to travel on Flixbus buses.
• a car with excellent roads becomes a very fast and convenient way to travel. Hamburg is easily accessible by car from all parts of Germany via four motorways (Autobahnen-A) and six federal highways (Bundesstrassen-B).

Hamburg boasts an extensive public transport system including the metro, light rail network, buses and ferries. Ticket machines offer one-time (for one trip), daily (1 day), weekly, monthly and annual tickets. Tickets are valid for all types of public transport. Public transport operates from 4.30 to 1.00 (24.00 days off).

A key element of Hamburg's public transport system is the network of fast transit and regional rail routes that connect the city center with the surrounding area. There are four U-Bahn metro lines, six S-Bahn suburban lines and nine regional rail lines connecting Hamburg with other cities in the region.

Buses

The rail network is complemented by a wide range of bus routes, both intracity and intercity.

Ferry

There are six ferry lines serving the harbor and the Elbe River. These routes have two-digit numbers starting with 61. All ferries stop in Landungsbrücken.

Interesting places around Hamburg

North and Baltic Sea: islands and beaches

If you have a free day, we recommend going for a walk to the Wadden Sea, which is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. This is a series of shallow areas along the coastline. Next, you can stop by the coastal town of Cuxhaven. Or Sylt, which is Germany's northernmost island. It is well known for its beaches and surfing. The best way to get to these places from Hamburg is by train.

Medieval cities: Lübeck, Wismar and Lüneburg

Most likely, you have heard about the Hanseatic city of Lübeck before. After all, once it was the leading city of the Hanseatic League. Until our time, the city has preserved a unique historical heritage, and its center has been declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site and is a must see in Northern Germany. Just one hour from Lübeck is Wismar. This charming town has been awarded UNESCO World Heritage Site status for its beautifully restored townhouses.

Lüneburg completes the list of must-have historic cities in the vicinity of Hamburg. This medieval city still remembers the times when it was one of the richest cities in Northern Europe. You can easily and quickly get here by car or train.

Sights of Hamburg

Thanks to its cultural and historical heritage, the charm of the sea Hamburg is one of the most beautiful and interesting cities in Germany. "Gate to the World", as the port city on the Elbe is often called, offers tourists to get acquainted with the sights of the past and the present time of one of the main and richest Hanseatic cities.

Landungsbrücken

Landungsbrücken or simply the Pier (Wharf) is one of the symbols of Hamburg, which offers gorgeous views and unsurpassed historical buildings.

Two towers with beautiful green roofs mark the 205-meter terminal between the lower harbour, the Reeperbahn and the Fischmarkt. Situated on the Elbe, Landungsbrücken (German: Landungsbrücken, meaning illuminated boarding bridges) was once home to ships and now functions as a link for underground and suburban trains. In addition, all Hamburg ferries depart from here.

Port

The Port of Hamburg is the second largest seaport in Europe and one of the nine largest container harbors in the world. More than eight million containers are handled here annually. Despite the purely practical application, the port is one of the most popular attractions in Hamburg and northern Germany.

About 13,000 ships from all over the world visit the second largest port in Europe every year. From port terminals to historic Speicherstadt warehouses, boarding bridges and a modern container port, you can smell and hear the flavors and languages ​​of many countries, feel Hamburg's rich maritime past and the real atmosphere of a free Hanseatic city. And by taking a ferry ride or visiting one of the legendary museum ships, you will once again be convinced that Hamburg is the sea capital of Northern Germany.

Speicherstadt (Speicherstadt)

Speicherstadt (Speicherstadt) - one of the main attractions of Hamburg, the world's largest integrated warehouse complex, built in 1883. Since 1991 it has been a monument of history and architecture. The warehouses are built on oak piles, and the entire area is riddled with channels that flood at high tide and become accessible to ships. You can travel through the narrow channels on small barges to enjoy the architectural details if the tide is high.

We highly recommend walking in this area after dark, when Speicherstadt is shrouded in an aura of mystery. At this time of day, red-brick buildings and steel bridges are skillfully illuminated by 800 spotlights. And the atmosphere becomes simply fabulous: the illuminated facades of old Gothic port buildings, their reflections in the water of the canals and the spicy aromas of goods from all over the world.

HafenCity combines tradition and modernity in a unique symbiosis for a true architectural and cultural delight. The modern architecture of HafenCity creates an interesting contrast to the historic warehouse area of ​​Speicherstadt.

The architectural highlight of the area is the futuristic Elbphilharmonie, with its impressive glass façade and undulating roof that rises from the former Kaispeicher building at the western end of HafenCity. Inside there are two concert halls, a hotel and residential apartments. Between the old warehouse and the glass structure is a public area for viewing and visiting, which extends around the entire building. This state-of-the-art facility opened in January 2017.

Miniature Wonderland is the largest model railway system in the world and has been voted Germany's most popular tourist attraction. Visitors can admire different countries and even a miniature airport. In addition to impressive miniature versions of Hamburg, the mountainous German region of Harz, the Austrian Alps, France, Italy, North America and Scandinavia are represented. A very interesting place for all the curious.

The City Hall is an eclectic neo-Renaissance building from the late 19th century that houses the city government of Hamburg. This town hall is the sixth building of this type in the city. The rest, for certain reasons, have not survived to this day.

Church of St. Michael is one of the most famous religious buildings in the city, the tower of which has become one of the symbols of Hamburg. It was built at the beginning of the 20th century. Previous buildings were damaged during fires. The 132 meter high tower with the largest belfry in Germany offers a fantastic view of the city.

The planetarium is one of the oldest observatories of its kind in the world, located in the northwestern part of Hamburg and opened in 1930. The building itself is a modernized old water tower from the early 20th century.

Video - City of Hamburg

Let's imagine that cities are people ... Then Munich is a cheerful hospitable invigorating person, Stuttgart is a diligent worker, Cologne is an adult woman with a wonderful sense of humor, and Berlin is a young boy who is in search of himself.

And here is Hamburg, let's get acquainted ...

The German city of Hamburg, in my opinion, is a tall, handsome, stately middle-aged man. Multifaceted and controversial. Affable but lonely; open but cold. And also very smart, inquisitive and immensely talented.

If the city of Hamburg were a person, then its face would be port. Huge and majestic, sometimes gloomy, and sometimes joyful and happy. Hamburg is the first port city in my life. Prior to this, this combination had an extremely negative connotation for me. Vessels, cargo, warehouses - how can you like it? Maybe if it's Hamburg!

10,000 ships and steamships enter the harbor of Hamburg every year, 500,000 passengers travel by water from here, 131 million tons of cargo meet the port every year. And all this despite the fact that Hamburg is not a sea port, but only a river port, and the nearest North Sea is 100 kilometers from it.

If we imagine that Hamburg is a person, then numerous city ​​bridges. There are over 2500 bridges in Hamburg. And this is more than in London and Venice - combined. Many of them are railway bridges. The largest and most famous bridge in the city - Kölbrandbrücke - is almost 4 kilometers long. For almost twenty years it remained the largest bridge in the world.

It is the bridges that create a special architectural appearance of Hamburg. They are everywhere you look.

If Hamburg were a man, then his eyes would be Church of Saint Michel made in the Baroque style. Since ancient times, the 132-meter tower of this particular church served as a beacon for sailors. Several times the city lost sight - due to fires and bombs, but quickly recovered. Millions of people visit the church and the tower every year: from the top you have a stunning view of the port and the city center.

If Hamburg were a man, then the famous fish market- would, of course, be his stomach)) This market has existed since 1703, and its length is almost a kilometer. Despite the name, here you can buy not only fish, but also other food products - vegetables, fruits, eggs, spices. You can even buy a live cockerel or rabbit.

And in the covered part of the bazaar, you can eat and listen to a live orchestra. The fish market in Hamburg is open at a strictly allotted time - on Sundays from 5 to 10 am.

Among other places of interest, Hamburg is famous for its "street of debauchery" - Reeperbahn, where there are numerous entertainment venues, nightclubs, sex shops, erotic shops, brothels. What would this street be if Hamburg were a person? Hmm ... No, there are no details here, think for yourself))

And the heart of Hamburg is, of course, its town hall. The majestic huge building of the town hall consists of more than 640 rooms and is decorated with twenty statues of German kings and emperors. By the way, the Hamburg City Hall is a rather young building, which began its existence in 1887. The ancient town hall building burned down during a fire in 1842. The city of Hamburg is somehow unlucky in this regard: it was engulfed in fires many times, flooded with the waters of the Elbe, and suffered greatly during the war.

In the courtyard of the City Hall, a monument to the goddess of health, Hygieia, was erected as a symbol of victory over the terrible cholera.

If we imagine that Hamburg is a person, then museums and theaters are his talents. And the city has a lot of them: more than 50 museums of various kinds and 40 theaters. Hamburg - city ​​of musicals, the third most popular in the world after New York and London. Some even call Hamburg the “German Broadway”. Two million tickets for musicals are sold here every year. The most popular of the performances today are "The Lion King", "Tarzan", "Rocky".

If the city of Hamburg were a person, then Church of St. Nicholas would be his memory. The tower of the church is 147 meters and was once the tallest tower on earth.

The church was destroyed during the Second World War, and it was not restored, only the ruins were restored and secured, providing the tower with a modern elevator. And near the church they put mourners for the dead statues. There was a memorial.

Die Hamburger Universität ist nicht besonders alt, sie gründete man 1919. The University of Hamburg is not very old, it was founded in 1919.

Die Uni hatte damals nur 6 Fakultäten. At that time, the university had only 6 faculties.

Spater, nachdem sie reorganisiert wurde, bekam sie Fachbereiche. Later, after he was reorganized, he received specialties.

Zurzeit gibt es hier 19 Fachbereiche, sowohl für geisteswissenschaftliche, als auch für naturwissenschaftliche Wissenschaften. Currently, there are 19 specialties, both humanities and natural sciences.

Man braucht vor der Immatrikulation nur das Abschlusszeugnis des Gymnasiums oder der Hauptschule vorzulegen. Before enrollment, you only need to present a high school or basic school certificate.

Hunderte immatrikuliert man an der Uni, einige exmatrikuliert, wenn sie schlecht studieren, denn eine harte selbständige Arbeit aller Studenten ist das Hauptprinzip aller Hochschulen Deutschlands. Hundreds are enrolled in the university, some are expelled if they study poorly, since the main principle of milestones in German universities is the hard independent work of all students.

Das halten nicht alle aus. Not everyone can stand it.

Jeder Student stellt nach der Immatrikulation selbst seinen Studienplan für die ganze Studienzeit zusammen. Each student, after enrollment, independently draws up his own curriculum for the entire period of study.

Eine der stärksten und wahrscheinlich eine der wichtigsten Seiten der deutschen Hochschulausbildung ist das Studentenrecht, Professoren, Seminare, das Thema der Prüfung und Abschlussprüfung zu wählen. One of the strongest and probably one of the most important aspects of German higher education is the right of students to choose professors, seminars, exam topics and final exams.

Wie in allen deutschen Hochschulen teilt sich das Studium an der Unversität in zwei Abschnitte: Grundstudium (vier erste Semester) und Hauptstudium (alle Semester nach dem Grundstudium). As in all German universities, studies at the university are divided into two stages: the initial stage (the first four semesters) and the main stage (all semesters after the main stage).

Die Studienzeit dauert 8 Semester. Study time lasts 8 semesters.

Aber wenn man 2 or 3 Seminare (Studienrichtungen) wählt, so studiert man 12 bis 14 Semester. But if they choose 2 or 3 seminars (directions of preparation), then they study 12-14 semesters.

Es gibt im Hochschulbereich folgende Formen des Studiums: Seminare, Übungen und Vorlesungen. In the field of higher education, the following forms of education are available: seminars, practical exercises and lectures.

Hauptformen des Studiums sind Seminare. The main form of education is seminars.

Die Hauptseminare beginnen im 5.Semester. The main seminars start in the 5th semester.

Jeder Tutor spornt Studenten an, seine eigene Meinung zu entwickeln und sie zu begründen. Each mentor encourages students to develop their own opinion and justify it.

Die Studenten schreiben zu jedem Seminar ein Referat. Students write an abstract for each seminar.

Sein Umfang ist 20–25 maschinegeschriebene Seiten. Its volume is 20 - 25 typewritten pages.

Die Auswahl von Themen ist gross. The choice of topics is great.

Wer die Wahl hat, hat die Qual. Whom to choose, and to break his head.

Dabei hilft ihnen entweder ihr Tutor oder Professor. At the same time, either a curator or a professor helps them.

Die Studenten legen während des Studiums nur zwei Prüfungen ab: die erste Prüfung nach dem Grundstudium und die zweite Prüfung nach dem Hauptstudium, so genannte Abschlussprüfung. During their studies, students take only two exams: the first after the initial stage and the second after the main stage, the so-called final exam.

Es gibt hier im Vergleich mit Examen an russischen Hochschulen einen großen Unterschied: die Studenten legen hier nicht das ganze Lehrmaterial ab, sondern nur das Thema, das sie selbst wählten und danach mit dem Professor besprachen. Here there is a big difference in comparison with exams in Russian universities: students do not pass all the educational material, but only the topic that they themselves have chosen and then discussed with the professor.

In jedem Studienjahr hat man zwei Semester. Each academic year has two semesters.

Das Wintersemester beginnt am 1. Oktober und dauert bis zum 30. März, einschließlich 10-12 Tage Weihnachtsferien. The winter semester starts on October 1 and runs until March 30, including 10-12 days of Christmas holidays.

Das Sommersemester dauert set dem 1. April und bis zum 30. September. The summer semester runs from April 1 to September 30.

Das ist im Vergleich zu den Terminen in Russland ein Unterschied. This is a difference in comparison with the terms in Russia.
