• Browse through the paintings inside the Hamburg Town Hall.

The Town Hall was built in 1866 and, as such, it encompasses a neo-Renaissance architectural style. Though Hamburg Town Hall is now the official meeting place for the city’s Parliament and Senate, it is open to the public for guided tours. Tourists have a chance to see this Hamburg heritage from the inside, perusing through over 60 portraits of influential personalities in Hamburg’s history; the tours also include a view of the Kaisersaal Hall and its ever-alluring ceiling mural.

Visit the Hamburger Kunsthalle

Considered to be the largest museum building in all of Germany, the Hamburger Kunsthalle is a three-building fine art museum that houses the country's most prized art possessions. The museum is known to have art pieces dated from the Middle Ages to the Contemporary, with artists like Master Francke and C.D. Freidrich’s works featured on its walls.
