Landhaus Walter

Landhaus Walter is a heritage-protected residential building in Hamburg's City Park, built with gabled roofs, wooden shutters, and yellow-brown roof tiles. The structure displays typical early 20th-century country house design with careful detailing and balanced proportions.

The house was designed by architect Fritz Schumacher between 1914 and 1915 and represents an important example of residential architecture from that period. Around 1930, open arcades were enclosed with glazed walls to adapt the building to changing uses.

The building is named after its original owner and reflects how wealthy Hamburg residents sought to recreate country living within the city. Visitors today can still sense this blend of rural charm and urban refinement throughout the structure.

The building now houses a restaurant and sits directly in the public city park, making it easily accessible on foot from various directions. The surroundings offer walking paths and green spaces, allowing visitors to combine a visit with a longer stay in the park.

The grounds contain one of northern Germany's largest beer gardens, offering extensive outdoor seating under the open sky. Near the garden entrance stands a 1916 fountain featuring a sculpture of a boy with ducks, a popular spot for visitors to photograph.
