Discover Hamburg's UNESCO World Cultural Heritage! The “Speicherstadtmuseum Visitor-App” is our special service to our guests. It allows you to access the full English translation of the exhibition by using the QR-codes provided once you are at the museum.

The Speicherstadtmuseum is located on an authentic floor of a redbrick warehouse that is over a hundred and thirty years old (from 1888) where typical goods and tools collected from traditional warehouse companies and business premises of the warehouse district are exhibited. Historical photos and maps illustrate the social and economic changes of over a century in this worldwide unique historical monument that used to be part of the former free-port and is now part of Hamburg’s UNESCO World Cultural Heritage. Further topics in the exhibition are: the architecture of the dockland warehouse district, coffee- and tea-trading as well as lighter-boating (supplying the warehouses with goods by transport on (cargo) barges). Grippers, bales of rubber, coffee-sacks, sampling implements, pure cocoa and spices give the exhibition a special “touch”. The “Speicherstadtmuseum” is a privately run branch of the “Museum der Arbeit” (Museum of Work).
