Historical tours along the traces of the Jewish past in Hamburg with the HistoriaApp by HHU

As part of the online source edition “Key Documents of German-Jewish History”, the Institute for the History of German Jews in Hamburg has developed two tours along the traces of Hamburg’s Jewish past. The entries could partly be taken from the digitized version of the map “Places of Jewish Life and Jewish History in Hamburg.”

The two tours (in German):

Historical tour through Hamburg’s Grindelviertel

On the trail of Jewish heritage – the various stations provide insights into the long and varied Jewish past in the Grindelviertel.

Bicycle tour along the traces of the Jewish past between the Hamburg Neustadt and Altona.

The individual stations of the bicycle tour follow Jewish traces between Hamburger Neustadt and Altona, from the former “Judenbörse” in Elbstraße or the temple in Poolstraße to the Jewish Hospital in today’s Simon-von-Utrecht-Straße and the cemetery at Königstraße.

You can download the app for free at Google Play (Android devices) or in the German Apple App Store.
