Nienstedten, Residential quarter in Altona, Germany

Nienstedten extends across 4.3 square kilometers along the Elbe River, featuring numerous single-family homes and multi-family residences within Hamburg's western region.

The quarter received municipal rights in 1664 under Danish rule, developing from a harbor town into a residential district through subsequent Prussian and German administrations.

The Nienstedtener Kirche, inaugurated in 1751, contains historical treasures including an 18th-century altar and a communion cup dating from 1420.

The district maintains connections to Hamburg's center through public transportation while offering extensive green spaces like Hirschpark and Wesselhöftpark for recreation.

The quarter houses two prominent landhouses built by the Godeffroy family in 1792 and 1836, representing the merchant wealth of historical Hamburg.
