Neugraben-Fischbek

Neugraben-Fischbek is a residential quarter on the southwestern edge of Hamburg with mixed neighborhoods and open spaces. The area spans several kilometers and includes both urban and natural surroundings typical of Hamburg's outer districts.

The area traces its origins to the early 16th century under the name Niegraben, which referred to the first settlement. Industrial development in the 19th century followed, and two separate communities merged into one district in 1951.

The neighborhood is home to several religious communities, including Protestant and Catholic churches as well as a mosque, reflecting the diversity of its residents. Different traditions coexist and shape daily life across the area.

The district is well served by public transportation and local amenities including markets and community facilities. Getting around is straightforward, and most areas are easily accessible on foot or by local transit.

The Fischbeker Heide is an expansive heathland with marked walking trails that showcase the natural landscape of the region. This area reveals a completely different side of the district away from residential neighborhoods.
