Fuhlsbüttel

Fuhlsbüttel spans 6.6 square kilometers within Hamburg's northern district, featuring residential areas, commercial spaces, and Hamburg International Airport at 17 meters elevation.

The former village joined the State of Hamburg in 1871 and later housed a Naval Airship Division base starting in 1912 for North Sea reconnaissance missions.

The St. Marien Lutheran Church stands among parks and recreational facilities, reflecting the quarter's mix of traditional architecture and modern community spaces.

The quarter connects to Hamburg's transit network through U1 and S1 rail lines, with numerous bus routes providing transportation options for residents and visitors.

The Fuhlsbüttel prison, established in 1933, now includes a memorial site documenting its transformation from a regular facility to a concentration camp during World War II.
