Old Holsten Street

Highlight • Historical Site

The so-called Hasse-Haus was built around 1630 as the organist's house for the parish of St. Petri and Pauli. From 1672 to 1776 it was the home of the Hasse family of organists and thus also the birthplace of the later famous composer Johann Adolf Hasse (born on March 23, 1699). Today it houses the Bergedorf Tourist Information Center.

St. Peter and Paul Church, Bergedorf

Highlight • Religious Site

The church in Bergedorf is called St. Petri and Pauli.

The first written mention of a church in the center of Bergedorf took place in the years 1162 and 1178. It belonged at that time to the diocese of Ratzeburg and is mentioned as an existing church with nine associated villages in the Elbmarsch. So it could well have been founded before the first mention. Up to the 15th century, there are up to three sacred benefices (one pastor and two vicars) for this church.

Presumably due to dilapidation this first (still only the Apostle Peter consecrated) church was demolished in 1499 and initially started under the supervision of the Hamburg bishop Christian Berskamp with a new building. From 1501, the Lübeck councilman Hermann Messmann led the construction. The majority of the craftsmen who carried out the new building (carpenters, bricklayers, glaziers, floor layers) came from Hamburg. On June 29, 1502, at the Feast of Peter and Paul, the St. Peter and Paul Church, newly built as a half-timbered room, was consecrated by the Bishop of Ratzeburg to John of Parkentin.

The church is open from 12 to 18 o'clock (if it is possible).

Old Bergedorf Station

Highlight • Historical Site

Here in Bergedorf, there is still an old station building from 1842.
It is the former ticket and guard house of the "Hamburg-Bergedorf Railway," which began operating in 1842. The station building, built in 1842, was, like all railway buildings along the line, designed by Alexis de Chateauneuf.
It is therefore one of the oldest surviving station buildings in Germany.


From 1846, the railway line planned by William Lindley in 1838, slightly deviated from the line, and continued via Bergedorf's second station on the border with Lohbrügge,
via Friedrichsruh - Schwarzenbek - Boizenburg to Berlin.


In 1990-92, the dilapidated station building was extensively restored by the "Work and Learning" association and refurbished to mark the railway's 150th anniversary. Since 1992, the Bergedorf District Landowners' Association has been based in the "Old Train Station." Tours are possible, and an information leaflet on the station's history is available.

The Lohbrügger Bürgerbühne theater workshop is located in the adjacent building.

The connection to Bergedorf-Lohbrügge and the Vier- and Marschlanden areas is documented by a small permanent exhibition of Wolfgang Götze drawings.

He captured the district in countless ballpoint pen drawings between 1960 and 1980.

The "collotypes" on display provide a good impression of his work.
