Good Friday Guided Tour of the UNESCO World Heritage Site Speicherstadt

Experience Hamburg’s Historic Warehouse District

Friday, 18^th April 2025 at 15.00 h (1.5 hours)

Situated in the former free port area the warehouse district and canals form a complex that is part of Hamburg’s UNESCO world heritage site. With its unique architecture the Speicherstadt (Warehouse District) was built between 1883 and 1927 and symbolises the city's rich commercial history. Until container shipping dominated logistics it was the storage place for coffee, tea, spices, nuts and dried fruits and other luxury commodities.

The first part of the tour includes a guided visit to the Speicherstadtmuseum which is situated on the ground floor of an historic red brick warehouse, where you will get to know details about the history of the complex and what kind of work was done by the warehouse keepers. The second part of the tour will lead you to the most exciting places within the area. See the former boiler house, the only courtyard, the technology of the past and the picturesque views, while walking through an impressive architectural site.

We look forward to seeing you there.
