Övelgönne, Residential district along Elbe River in Hamburg, Germany
The Övelgönne district extends along the northern bank of the Elbe River, featuring tree-lined streets and residential houses with river views.
Starting as a fishing settlement, Övelgönne transformed into a residential area after its incorporation into Altona in 1890 and later became part of Othmarschen.
The Övelgönne Museum Harbor displays traditional vessels and maritime artifacts, representing the first privately operated museum harbor in Germany.
Multiple bus lines connect the district to Hamburg's public transport network, with walking paths along the Elbe River providing access to local attractions.
A massive glacial boulder known as 'Der alte Schwede' sits on the Elbe beach, measuring 4.5 meters tall and weighing 217 tons.
