Guided Story
Imagine standing on a bridge that's been watching over the city's hustle and bustle for more than 150 years. Look to your left, and you'll see Ericusgraben winding calmly through the modern architecture of HafenCity. Did you know this bridge used to be a swing bridge? It used to majestically open to allow large cargo ships to pass through. Now, it's a silent witness to the industrial revolution, surrounded by the buzz of the modern city. Behind you, PROTOTYP, the car museum, showcases the future of mobility, right next to the historical roots you're standing on. A short walk takes you to cultural highlights like the Dialoghaus Hamburg. It's a true experience in the heart of Hamburg, bridging time as you simply walk across it.
