Hamburg, 04 July 2024 - It is the most spectacular construction project in Hamburg since the opening of the Elbphilharmonie: the extension and greening of a gigantic high-rise bunker from the Second World War opens its doors to the public on 5 June after several years of construction in the heart of the St. Pauli district. In addition to the already opened REVERBB by Hard Rock Hotel, exciting gastronomy, a memorial for victims and forced labourers of the last world war and plenty of space for district culture, the Hamburg Bunker offers plenty of greenery in the middle of the city with a public roof garden at a height of 58 metres and a ‘mountain path’. Over the past five years, the ‘Green Bunker’ has become a new creative, urban experience for Hamburg residents and tourists from all over the world. It is Hamburg's new architectural, urban development and tourism highlight in the middle of the lively St. Pauli district, with a unique panoramic view over the city and improves the (urban) climate with its greenery.
