Hapag-Hallen & Steubenhöft
Hapag-Hallen / Steubenhöft
The departure point for millions of emigrants who sailed to America a century ago, now a cruise terminal with an exhibition on migration history.
Steubenhöft and the Hapag-Hallen were built between 1900 and 1913 as the passenger terminal of the Hamburg America Line (HAPAG). Many European emigrants boarded ships here bound for New York. The pier is still used as a cruise ship stop, and the waiting hall houses the “Auswandererwelt” (Emigrant World) exhibition along with an old railway platform, displaying emigrants' luggage, tickets and voyage stories. You can view the exterior at any time, but check the official website for exhibition hours.
