Speicherstadt and Hafencity
The century-old Speicherstadt is located in the Free Port between the
Deichtorhallen and Baumwall and is the world's oldest warehouse complex. Built
at the turn of the century in red brick, typical of northern Germany, with
gabled roofs and small towers, which are beautifully reflected in the canals
they border. Today, as in bygone days, wares from the world over - coffee, tea,
cocoa, spices, tobacco, computers and Oriental rugs - are stacked in these
storerooms. Also a quick view of the HafenCity.
Dates: every Tuesday; Start U-Station Baumwall, exit Speicherstadt.
