Mellin Passage

Mellin Passage

In the old Mellin arcade — Hamburg's oldest shopping arcade today — you can admire the ceiling paintings and stained glass from the turn of the last century. Here, you’ll find antiques, art and rare literature at Felix Jud, exclusive porcelain vases and dishware at the Königliche Porzellan Manufaktur, and countless creatively designed bags at Tumi. The Mellin Passage connects the Alsterarkaden with the luxury shopping street Neuer Wall. With the picturesque ceiling paintings the shopping mall is a real find for tourists alongside their shopping spree.

Karolinenviertel

Karolinenviertel

Colourful, alternative, creative and enticing, the market street in the Karolinen district shows that it can be on par with the big shopping streets and centres in the Hanseatic city. Nevertheless, the area retains its particular vibe. The exceptional position of the Karolinen district has helped maintain its vibrant, village character.

St Georg District

St Georg District

Ironically, the most sensual and intense district in the heart of Hamburg bears the name of a saint. This apparent contradiction is characteristic of Saint Georg. The residents call their district a 'world village'. On just 1.8 square kilometres, in a crossover of cultures, a unique scene has developed, both explosive and fascinating. St Georg is quirky and sinful, chic and gay, and always good for sensational headlines.

Jungfernstieg Shopping Promenade

Jungfernstieg Shopping Promenade

Jungfernstieg provides a diverse connection between the Inner Alster and the surrounding shops and attractions. Set a date at this central location and start shopping in the nearby department stores — especially the famous and traditional Alsterhaus but also small but refined shops. After a break and refreshment in the Alsterpavillon, continue through the surrounding shopping areas and arcades.

Europa Passage

Europa Passage

Europa Passage is more than a shopping centre — it is a real attraction in Hamburg. There are over 120 shops on five floors. Whether you're into fashion, books or electronics, the shopping mall in the city centre between Jungfernstieg and Mönckebergstrasse has it all. You can spend a lazy afternoon protected from the wind and weather in this impressive building designed by Hamburg architect Hadi Teherani.

Mönckebergstraße

Mönckebergstraße

Mönckebergstraße, or just Mö for short, is Hamburg’s major shopping street. Until 1907, this area between the main train station and the City Hall was known as Gägenviertel; here, the city's poorer residents lived on narrow streets with half-timbered houses. When Mönckebergstraße was constructed, Hamburg's administration created the boulevard that could best represent the pride and economic power of the Hanseatic city. Even today, this boulevard displays an impressive variety of large department stores, fashion boutiques, retail shops, cafés and food stalls. The Levantehaus is among the city’s smallest and finest shopping arcades.

Alsterhaus

Alsterhaus

The Alsterhaus in Hamburg is one of Germany’s major department stores. The exclusive range of products, the classy sense of trends and the artful presentation have shaped the image of the Alsterhaus significantly. On six floors the premium department store presents many shopping highlights — from international luxury brands to home accessories and prime groceries — and therefore links tradition and modernity.

Schanzenviertel

Schanzenviertel

Schanzenviertel is home to many bars, restaurants, small foreign traders, fashion boutiques and associated clientele dominate the streets in the centre. Just recently in 'Schanze' (as the Hamburg natives say) a series of new stores have opened that make the area attractive and versatile for shopping.

Eppendorf

Eppendorf

Eppendorf is one of Hamburg's 'chic' districts. The shopping trip in Eppendorf is best started on one of the main streets: Eppendorfer Landstraße, Eppendorfer Weg, or Eppendorfer Baum. Cool and stylish fashion from Sweden can be found at the Grand Hotel of Sweden. At Linette, you will find current collections by Chloé, Marc Jacobs, Marni and Prada. In the quaint Kaffeerösterei Burg on Eppendorfer Weg, you can buy various types of freshly roasted coffee, as well as cocoa, teas, and chocolates.

The Art of Hamburg

The Art of Hamburg

The Art of Hamburg specialises in 'declarations of love' from various artists and designers to the most beautiful city in Germany. Right next to where the big ships are moored, you can find a tiny souvenir store that is packed with authentic, high quality and sometimes even practical items.

Alsterarkaden

Alsterarkaden

Stroll under the arcades and enjoy the Mediterranean atmosphere and exclusive shops. Hungry? Then don't miss the Arabian cuisine at Saliba. In the old Mellin arcade — Hamburg's oldest shopping arcade today — leading to the Neuer Wall, you can admire the ceiling paintings and stained glass from the turn of the 20th century. To relax, just sit on the steps by the canal, feed the swans, watch the canal steamers at the locks, or walk along the canal to the Elbe.

Levantehaus

Levantehaus

Rising towards the sun — that is the meaning of the word 'levante'. Constructed in 1911/1912 by Franz Bach as an office building, the passage's first major tenant, the German Levante Line, gave this landmark its name. The atmosphere is enhanced by exquisite shops of various kinds, from cafés and fashion boutiques to fragrant bakeries and gift shops that cater to every desire.

Herr von Eden

Herr von Eden

Bent Angelo Jensen, the founder of Herr von Eden, has gained fame for his suits, especially since rapper Jan Delay started wearing his designs on stage. Known for his impeccable style, Jensen likes to combine classic cuts, sometimes inspired by the 30s, sometimes by the 60s, with unusual accessories such as the Edeneyes / Mikita sunglasses, favoured by celebrities like Lady Gaga.

McArthurGlen Designer Outlet Neumünster

McArthurGlen Designer Outlet Neumünster

Only 40 minutes from Hamburg, you will find the McArthurGlen Designer Outlet Neumünster. Northern Germany's largest outlet is offering 30-70% off RRP all year round and has become a shopping paradise for fashion lovers. More than 110 stores with your favourite designer brands such as Armani, Gucci, Hugo Boss, Polo Ralph Lauren, Adidas, Zwilling or WMF as well as a diversified gastronomy and the village-style, invite guests to linger. The location next to motorway A7, free parking and a shuttle from Hamburg Dammtor provide easy access.

Neuer Wall

Neuer Wall

Neuer Wall is the boulevard of luxury brands: from Armani to Jil Sander, Bulgari, Cartier and Sönnichsen are represented here, as are Offermann and Louis Vuitton. You can reach the luxury shops over wide and elegantly paved pavements to rejoice at Windsor or Burberry's clothing, jewellery at Tod's, writing instruments from Montblanc, or jewellery at Wempe.

Spitalerstraße

Spitalerstraße

One of the most popular shopping streets in Hamburg runs from the central station to Gerhart-Hauptmann-Platz. There are chain stores here such as Zara, Douglas, H&M, Anson’s and Görtz. Jewellers, opticians and Thalia, Hamburg’s largest bookshop, are located next door to banks, chemists and cafés.

Flohschanze Flea Market

Flohschanze Flea Market

The flea market around the old cattle slaughterhouse for many St Pauli natives marks the start of the weekend. On Saturday mornings, countless retailers set up their stalls here, with clothes, antiques, records, books, musical instruments, bikes, chic retro furniture — whatever your heart desires and your luggage can fit. Coffee, cold drinks and some snacks are on offer at the gatehouse on Feldstraße that has been converted into a cafe.

Derbe & Support

Derbe & Support

The makers of the Derbe label equipped the classical, wind and weather-defying jacket with the Hamburg coat of arms, gave it a brightly coloured exterior and a lining with a fish-head print, and since then the 'Derbe Friese' has been a long-distance runner, not only in Hamburg. All models of the snazzy raincoat for men and women are available in the Derbe store on Osterstaße in Eimsbüttel.

Hanseviertel

Hanseviertel

The Hanseviertel shopping mall is nestled in the heart of Hamburg. Nowhere else can so many different stores be found under one roof. Fashion, gifts and treats to savour in a very special way. Also worth seeing inside is a spectacular granite globe showing the history of the Hanseatic trade routes.

St Pauli Night Market

St Pauli Night Market

The St Pauli Night Market is not your average weekly market. It takes place at the heart of the Reeperbahn, on the Spielbudenplatz. It very much shares the St Pauli vibe and is open late (at least for a flea market). The beer garden with a live music stage makes this weekly market an after work meeting place and offers an unforgettable shopping experience.
