Finnish Seamen's Mission Hamburg

The Finnish Seamen's Mission Hamburg operates from a concrete building at Ditmar-Koel-Strasse 6, providing services to maritime workers and Finnish residents.

The Hamburg branch of the Finnish Seamen's Mission began its operations in 1901, with the current church building constructed and opened in 1966.

The mission maintains Finnish traditions through regular Lutheran services, connecting Finnish seafarers and expatriates with their homeland through community gatherings.

Visitors can access various facilities including a café, library, and traditional Finnish saunas, with religious services held two to three times monthly.

The mission houses a Finnish-speaking parrot that interacts with visitors, adding an unexpected element to this maritime community center.
