HafenCity
One of Europe’s largest inner-city redevelopment districts, with modern buildings and waterfront squares on former docklands, connected to the Elbphilharmonie.
HafenCity is a new district built on the former docklands south of the Speicherstadt warehouse district. Covering about 157 hectares, it brings together modern offices, housing, a university and waterside promenades. Terraced squares such as the Magellan-Terrassen and Marco-Polo-Terrassen let you sit and watch the canals and boats. Its western end connects to the Elbphilharmonie concert hall, and the district also has the International Maritime Museum and the Westfield shopping center. Exploring on foot is free. Take the U4 subway to Überseequartier station.
