The best way to take in the city’s culture and history is to hop aboard the Maritime Circle Line, a shuttle service which connects all of Hamburg’s most important maritime attractions. Among the sites worth exploring in greater detail is the International Maritime Museum, which is laid out over ten floors and contains the world’s largest collection of model ships and other artefacts relating to the navigation of the seas.
The city is also home to some fantastic old churches, with the St Michaeliskirche being among the most noteworthy. Elsewhere, Miniatur-Wunderland is a terrific place for all big kids, as it houses some amazing model railways and incredible miniature alpine landscapes.
