Übersee-Club, Cultural heritage monument and association in Neustadt, Germany
The Übersee-Club occupies the Amsinck Palace, a historical building situated along the Binnenalster waterfront in Hamburg's central district. The structure contains club rooms and dining facilities managed by the Atlantic Kempinski Hotel.
The club was founded in 1922 by banker Max Warburg and ceased operations in 1934 during the Nazi regime. After World War II, it reopened in 1948 to support Hamburg's international trade and exchange.
The place serves as a meeting point for leaders in business, politics, education, and the arts, where regular lectures and discussions about global matters take place. Visitors can observe how people from different fields gather to exchange ideas about international affairs.
Access to the club is normally restricted to members, but special events may occasionally be open to visitors. It is best to check in advance about any public events or tours that might be available for a visit.
Übersee Day is celebrated every year on May 7th, marking the date when Hamburg received its port rights from Emperor Barbarossa in 1189. This annual celebration ties the city's long trading tradition to the club's role as an international meeting place.
