Formerly known as the Museum of Ethnology. The museum has ethnographic objects from around the world.
Hamburg's Zoo. The collection began in 1863 with animals that belonged to Carl Hagenbeck Sr. (1810–1887), a fishmonger who became an amateur animal collector. The park itself was founded by Carl Hagenbeck Jr. in 1907. It is known for being the first zoo to use open enclosures surrounded by moats, rather than barred cages, to better approximate animals' natural environments.
Swimming pool. Basic entry gives access to pools and thermen (warm and cold water pools). Sauna complex for an additional fee.
Inaugurated in 1952. The part west of the Alster is called Alstervorland, the one east Alterpark.
The obvious thing to do is to take a ride around the Alster on one of the leisure boats and enjoy the greenery and elegant buildings around it.
Biggest of all mosques in Hamburg. Centre of the religious and cultural life of the huge Iranian community. The Imams of Hamburg happen to have played important roles in Iran's religious and political everyday life since their installation in the 1950s.
