ONLY IN HAMBURG


Only in Hamburg
- A Guide to Hidden Corners, Little-Known Places
and Unusual Objects


A unique guide to unusual spots in the port on the Elbe. A heady mix of the workaday and the cosmopolitan in Germany‘s second city.

"Travel writing with a twist, for while Smith takes in Hamburg‘s landmark sights,
he also digs out spots where few tourists ever venture." (www.eurocheapo.com)


• A comprehensive illustrated guide to more than 80 fascinating and unusual historical sights in Germany‘s second-largest city

 Prehistoric stones, wartime air raid shelters, hidden cellars, unexpected sanctuaries, and eccentric museums

• From Charlemagne‘s Hammaburg and the Hanseatic League to the Third Reich and the Federal State of Hamburg

• John Lennon‘s doorway, a floating church, the English sewers, and the unicorn of the deep
 
• An Arabian princess, Käppn Lührs, a Communist hero, and the Red Brick King

 Recommended for visitors to Hamburg wishing to discover something a little different, as well as for inhabitants who perhaps thought they already knew the city
