    where the Tarpenbek flows into the Alster, there is a beautiful little temple. Nice view over the Alster-Streek. Here, the architectural concept of Fritz Schumacher is quite clear, which provided at the time for the design of the lower Alsterlaufs (the Streek) a strictly architectural version by embankment walls, terraces and basins. His design was not uncontroversial at that time, but prevailed.

      If you walk over the bridge over the Tarpenbek at Barmeier's boathouse, you can admire the arch of the bridge over the canal and the small temple. Few know who designed and planned it. Fritz Schumacher, architect and chief building director in Hamburg until 1933.



      The Alster canalisation was discussed controversially. The water engineering office had proposed a natural solution and Fritz Schumacher a strictly structured one. Fritz Schumacher's plans were only partially implemented. Particularly easy to spot between the dam bridge and the Tarpenbek. So you can admire both and decide which solution you like better.

        The origin of the Tarpenbek is in Norderstedt. From there it flows leisurely through the Hamburg districts of Langenhorn, Niendorf, Groß Borstel and Eppendorf and flows into the Alster via the Eppendorfer Mühlenteich. With a length of 21 kilometers, the Tarpenbek still feeds the longest green belt in the north-west of the city.
