Guided Tour Through the History of the New Town
Overview of the tour in Hamburg
We start our walk through Hamburg's history at Hamburg's first public park.
We learn why the ramparts are called Wallanlagen,
when it is actually so flat everywhere in northern Germany.
Get to know a much sought-after Dutchman of his time.
We then continue our walk, passing Hamburg's only inner-city tower block.
Between former flowerbeds, we see what residential densification can lead to.
Find out what Hamburg's cosmopolitan attitude is all about,
but why Neustadt residents should always keep their feet still.
Listen to the life stories of two Hamburg residents whose stories could not be more different.
And why the phrase "get going!" should be taken literally in Hamburg.
On our walk through the urban jungle and its district,
embark on a historical journey of discovery through Neustadt and its green lung.
Immerse yourself in all its contrasts.
