Rödingsmarkt

Rödingsmarkt is a street running through Hamburg's old town, lined with a mix of historic and modern buildings. It forms a key passage connecting the old harbor quarter with the central business district of the city.

The street has been documented since the 13th century and evolved from a trading area into a major transport route. The name refers to merchants who worked here over centuries, not to any market activities.

The name comes from merchants who worked in this area over many centuries. Today you can still see traces of this commercial past in the buildings that line the street.

The U3 metro line stops at Rödingsmarkt station, providing direct access to Hamburg's main sites. The street is easy to walk along and lies near several major squares and museums in the old town.

Rödingsmarkt station was built in 1912 as an elevated railway and shows early examples of railway design from that era. The structure remains one of Hamburg's oldest still-used transportation buildings.
