Rundgang: Altona – unbeschreiblich weiblich – Frauengeschichten in Ottensen

Why the names Alma-Wartenberg-Platz, Betty-Levi-Passage, and Bückelsallee?

Writer, maid, artist, fish processor, politician, forced laborer, activist … Together, they have shaped the story of 300 years of women’s lives in what is now Hamburg’s most popular neighborhood—once a craftsmen’s village, an industrial city, a destination for immigrants, a student district, and a magnet for gentrification.

A multi-ethnic world awaits you—are you curious about a walking tour that will help you get to know the area better?
