Steilshoop

Steilshoop extends over 2.5 square kilometers in northeast Hamburg, with a population of 19,856 residents and borders the Ohlsdorf Cemetery to the north.

The area was first documented in 1350 and belonged to the Trittau office of Stormarn until 1773, before becoming part of Hamburg in 1937.

The Martin Luther King Church and multiple community centers provide religious services and social gathering spaces for the district's multicultural population.

The district connects to Hamburg's public transport network through several bus lines that link to rapid transit stations in neighboring areas.

Between 1969 and 1975, the district transformed from garden allotments into a large residential development designed to accommodate 22,000 inhabitants.
