Description

Essentials about the Hamburg City Hall

The Hamburg City Hall is not only the seat of the Senate and Parliament of the Hanseatic city, but also one of the most magnificent and impressive buildings in Hamburg. It was built at the end of the 19th century in the historic neo-Renaissance style. The tower of the city hall has a height of 112 meters and is therefore one of the most striking landmarks in the cityscape of Hamburg.

Visiting the Hamburg City Hall

The city hall is not only a beauty from the outside, but also offers impressive rooms inside. The entrance area with its massive columned hall knows how to impress and is freely accessible for visitors. Who wants to see more of the city hall, including the Great Festival Hall with its almost 50 meters in length and its huge murals, can take part in a guided tour.
