BallinStadt — Emigrant Museum Hamburg

It's a captivating story — the tale of BallinStadt, the 'Emigration City', where millions of people found a safe haven before embarking on their journey to the New World in search of a better life. The museum chronicles the great European migration to America from 1850 to 1934. Here, you can explore the various emigration stations throughout the centuries. Across 14 themed rooms, the museum recounts the stories of emigration to the New World across four eras. In the family research centre, you can trace your ancestors in Hamburg: you have access to the digitised version of the unique Hamburg passenger lists.

Hagenbeck Zoo — the Wild Side of Hamburg

Discover Hamburg's Hagenbeck Zoo. In a park of 19 hectares you can find more than 1,850 animals from all over the world including Germany’s only walrus family. Guests experience an expedition around the equator at the Tropical World Adventure Aquarium, where you can find more than 14,300 animals of 300 species.

MS Cap San Diego

MS Cap San Diego is the largest seaworthy museum cargo ship in the world. Experience and discover 160 metres of shipping history and embark on a long voyage with the English booklet. Stop for a break in the 'Bord-Bistro' and stay the night on, instead of, by the Elbe river in one of our passenger cabins. During the diversity of evening events you may also meet the ship’s kobold (mischievous household spirit) or even set sail!

Bucerius Kunst Forum

Located in the heart of Hamburg next to the Town Hall, the Bucerius Kunst Forum exhibits art from ancient to modern times in four rotating exhibitions each year. A visit is an absolute must for art lovers. The concept of the Kunst Forum is based on reinventing the familiar to allow art lovers and novices alike to discover new interrelationships. Since its foundation in 2002, the Bucerius Kunst Forum has become one of the leading exhibition houses in northern Germany. A unique, modern exhibition space was created in the historic building of the former Reichsbank.
