    Large, tree-lined park on the site of the former fortifications with themed gardens and a lake with fountains.

    Translated by Google •

      The Hamburg Wallanlagen were fortifications built around Hamburg from 1616 to 1625 under the direction of Johan van Valckenburgh.

      Between 1679 and 1682, the so-called "Neues Werk" (New Work) was added to protect the eastern suburb of St. Georg, as well as the Sternschanze (Sternschanze) to the northwest.

      After the end of the French occupation in 1814, the fortifications were demolished, and the ramparts and ditches were converted into green spaces.

      While the eastern section later had to make way for the construction of the Hamburger Kunsthalle (Hamburg Art Gallery) and Hamburg Central Station, the western section between Dammtor and Stintfang has been preserved as part of the Planten un Blomen park and the Old Elbe Park.

      The former wall ring is also still clearly recognizable by the streets (Ring 1) that run in a ring around the city center.

        Located in the heart of the city, surrounded by shopping malls, the Congress Center, the exhibition center, and St. Pauli district, lies Planten un Blomen.
        The 45-hectare park lives up to its name: magnificent herbaceous borders and flowerbeds delight the eye and invite you to linger. Wide lawns, idyllic streams and small lakes, as well as uniquely designed themed gardens, promise peace and relaxation. Accessible from all sides, the park also invites you to enjoy entertainment and leisure activities. Particularly popular are the summer concerts in the bandstand and the colorful water light concerts on the park lake, which take place every evening from May to September.


        The park's diversity and central location make it equally attractive for locals and visitors to the Hanseatic city.
