Culinary tour through Hamburg’s “alternative heart”: the Schanzenviertel
Experience culinary highlights and be inspired by both the history and current events of the Sternschanze. Experience a culinary city tour through one of Hamburg’s most lively districts.
Formerly located on the outskirts of the city, the Sternschanze is now a culturally active, trendy district of the Hanseatic city. Here artists work alongside hipsters, the left-wing scene with “Rote Flora” has its headquarters and newcomers live alongside long-established Hamburg residents. Your tour guide will take you on a culinary tour through cafés and restaurants from a variety of cultures that still characterize this colorful district today. Recognized as a separate district since 2008, this district looks back on an eventful history, which begins in the 17th century with a former defense system. It is characterized by the influx of different cultures.
The Portuguese immigrants of the 1970s were followed by other immigrants who built new lives here and also distinguished the Schanze in terms of cuisine: it is not without reason that the main street is called “Galao-Strich” (shoulder blade). In addition to enjoying culinary delicacies, historical facts and information about recent events, you will find out from us where the name “Shoulder Blade” comes from, what Carl Hagenbeck did in the Sternschanze and which architectural buildings distinguish the ski jump. Today the district is one of the most expensive. A rapid change, conveyed in a fascinating tour! On our three-hour tour you will taste sweet and savory dishes and be provided with detailed information about one of Hamburg’s most beautiful districts!
