History
The name of the city of Hamburg originated in 800, after the first building (castle) built between the rivers Elbe and Alster. During World War II, the city was largely destroyed by Allied bombing and subsequent fires. At the end of the war, Hamburg surrendered without a fight to British forces. It became an independent state of the then Federal Republic of Germany in 1949. As several times before, the renewal of the city was ensured primarily by income from the operation of the port and trade in it.
Transport
To move around the city, it is best to use a well-developed public transport system.
Landmarks and activities
Although Hamburg is not a typical tourist destination, it has a lot to offer its visitors. Whether it's the historic center at the old dock with the town hall built of sandstone in 1897, or the Jungefernstieg shopping promenade and the red light district called St. Pauli. Few people know that the name of the famous American dish hamburger comes from here. Local traders sold minced meat steak to hungry sailors (the so-called Tartar steak). This dish became very popular due to its durability among all sailors and was named after the city "Hamburg steak".
