https://penielenv.com/8jeaq128 From journal notes, October 3, 2018:
click Hamburg is called the Gateway to the World. Germany’s largest port and the second-busiest in all of Europe, tucked in a well protected spot on the Elbe River, 60 miles from the North Sea. It’s also Germany’s second largest city with a population of over 1.8 million. Overall, a busy place, but not so busy our first day exploring because we arrived on German Unification day, a national holiday.

Tramadol Buy Online Canada Info from hamburg.com: The impressive Rathaus or City Hall is Hamburg’s seat of government; It is where Hamburg Parliament and the Senate assemble. The eclectic, neo-renaissance building from 1897 was one of the more interesting buildings we explored.

https://alldayelectrician.com/98xesh6 A passageway connects the City Hall to the Hamburg Stock Exchange. The newly renovated courtyard between these buildings resembles an Italian piazza and is decorated with the ‘Hygieia-fountain’ which was named after the Greek goddess of health and built in remembrance of the cholera epidemic that took place in 1892. At the feet of the goddess is a dragon and symbol of the defeated cholera.

go to site City Hall construction started in 1886 with 4000 wooden poles that had to be drilled into the muddy shores of the Alster Lake, in order to carry the weight of the 436 ft wide, 230 ft deep and 368 ft tall building. It is truly palatial, having 647 rooms. It is one of the few buildings that survived both the Great Fire of 1842 and the bombings of WWII which leveled much of the city.

The gods and generals, saints and emperors are not the only ones given a moment in statuary fame; the common man is also featured. Bakers, candlestick makers, potters. Here, the brewer is toting a cask of his brew.

From the Stumbling Stones website: Since 1995, Cologne-based artist Gunter Demnig has been commemorating the victims of the German Nazi regime through his project “Stolpersteine” – Stumbling Stones. The artist has been laying small memorial stones all over Germany — in sidewalks and pavements outside the places where the people lived or worked who were persecuted and murdered by the Nazi regime.
These stones were near the main entrance to Hamburg’s City Hall and were laid in 2002; the stones now number 5,000 in Hamburg alone. (We also saw stones in Kiel and Amsterdam.)

Just before returning to the ship, we stopped for a cappuccino. Every cappuccino at Fräulein von Elbe: Eis, Cafe and Leckerbissen (Ice Cream, Cafe and Delicacies) is served with a side of gelato. I approve of this tradition.
