Hamburg is a popular destination among business travelers from all over the world. The city is known for the dynamic center of banks, industry and media. However, Hamburg has got so much more to offer than just companies and offices.

The old town of Hamburg is an attraction in itself for many tourists. It’s full of characteristic buildings like the St. Michaelis church, the most important baroque building of northern Germany. On the church’s tower, at a height of 132 meter, you’re rewarded with a stunning view over the city. The historical warehouse complex ‘The Speicherstadt’ is definitely worth a visit. Also pay a visit to ‘Warehouse district’, a complex that consists of gothic buildings originating from the 19th century. These buildings are renovated to apartments, offices, restaurants and museums.
