Welcome, visitors to St Pauli, 

Congratulations! You have made a wise 

choice. The decision to get to know St Pauli 

better is one I definitely applaud. You too will 

soon discover that St Pauli is the heart of 

Hamburg, a wild heart and one you certainly 

won‘t forget too soon. 

At one time, St Pauli lay on the outskirts of 

Hamburg, and for years the people who lived Corny Littmann 

here were not wanted in the city – the sick, 

the street-walkers, the street performers, all of whom found 

a home here and were able to live freedom of religion. The 

wonderful free of spirit that rules in this unique quarter today 

evolved from that history. Tolerance and creativity are palpable 

everywhere you go. On the Reeperbahn, in the pubs, bars and 

clubs, but also in the theatres and on the stages of St Pauli. The 

people who live here are the people who believe in the motto 

‘live and let live‘. 

St Pauli is like life itself. It‘s full of emotion and variety, but 

above all else it is life in its purest form. Life is a stage, and 

every night on the stage of the St Pauli Theater, the city‘s oldest 

privately-owned theatre and one of the oldest in all of Germany, 

stories of life come alive. Local matadors, like Stefan Gwildis, 

sing about St Pauli, some of Germany’s foremost actors and 

actresses such as Monica Bleibtreu, Julia Jentsch and Ben 

Becker, bring classic plays and new productions to the stage. 

Experience great emotions! There’s plenty to laugh about at 

the Quatsch Comedy Club and the Kiez musical Heisse Ecke 

at Schmidt Theater is highly entertaining. But perhaps you’ve 

dreamt of going to New York and feeling like 17 again – then musical 

comedy with music by Udo Jürgens at the Operettenhaus 

is for you. Meet celebrities past and present at the Panoptikum 

Wax Museum. Dance the night away at clubs with live music, 

sing your heart out at concerts on the Kiez, be it the annual 

Reeperbahn Festival or in one of the legendary music clubs on 

Grosse Freiheit where the Beatles got their big break. 

This brochure is designed to help you choose. Walking tours, 

top stores, lovely hotels and great restaurants. See for yourself 

how diverse and attractive St Pauli is, and have fun doing it! 

Yours, Corny Littmann 

Managing Director Schmidt TIVOLI, President St Pauli Football Club 

Don‘t walk on by!

You‘ll never walk alone 

St Pauli iS more than juSt a 

neighbourhood, it‘S a way of 

life, full of heart and Soul, 

and SynonymouS with love, 

freedom and tolerance. 

St Pauli Football Club player Benjamin Adrion once expressed 

his strong sentiment for St Pauli as follows: “I can‘t imagine 

living anywhere else. You can be yourself in St Pauli, no heads 

turn when you walk by. St Pauli is real-life tolerance“. An unusual 

statement in today‘s pro football world where players are 

nomads gravitating to the clubs paying the highest amount. 

But the majority of St Pauli FC players identify with the club, 

the difference being that not only do they (currently) play great 

second division football, nowhere else are victories celebrated 

the way they are at Millerntor when FC St Pauli wins. This club‘s 

fans are the best and most loyal in the football scene and are 

even referred to sometimes as fashion pacesetters. 

Their trademark – the skull 

and cross bones – has made 

its mark on fashion and being 

politically left is considered 

almost proper. Nonetheless, 

xenophobia is not a problem 

at the Millerntor Stadium, 

and if it does raise its ugly 

head, the fans take care of 

it themselves. 

Tolerance is a fact of life in St Pauli except when it is endangered. 

That is how the people who live in this neighbourhood 

feel. How else could they otherwise put up with the crowds of 

pleasure-seekers trekking up and down the Reeperbahn night 

after night? St Pauli is home to the underdogs, low-income 

people, the old and the jobless, transvestites and prostitutes, 

students and immigrants. Yet this neighbourhood is in the process 

of changing and is drawing a growing number of movers 

and shakers from the advertising and media scene. 

Whilst still a must for those in search of love on the go, the 

‘sinful mile‘ long ago became a hotspot for the party generation 

and with its countless clubs and bars has catapulted itself 

into Germany‘s top league for a night 

out on the town. Wild stag parties, sailors 

on shore leave, managers rewarding 

their clients with a night out on the Kiez 

and those who get smashed for the first 

time: dance until dawn in one of the bars 

at Hamburger Berg or Hans-Albers-Platz. 

Those who go home alone after a night 

out in St Pauli have only themselves to 

blame. 

Love to go lurks everywhere and money 

can buy the country‘s most beautiful prostitutes 

– available on Herbertstrasse –, 

the best table-dance shows and any 

number of shops selling such an amazing 

and extraordinary assortment of sex 

toys that at first glance one wouldn‘t 

know what to use them for. 

Party until the wee hours of the 

morning 

Factor in culture and entertainment in St Pauli, spoken of in 

common parlance as St Liederlich (meaning wanton) or St 

Lustig (meaning merry). Musicals, cabaret and comedy are all 

located on the east side of the Reeperbahn. For sophisticated 

humor don‘t miss out on the Quatsch Comedy Club live show. 

All the same, St Pauli wouldn‘t be St Pauli if football and culture 

didn‘t go hand in hand. Corny Littmann is the best example 

of this union: a relic of the gay scene, he is also president of 

the St Pauli Football Club and owner-manager of two theatres, 

Schmidts Tivoli and Schmidt Theater. 

For the quieter type there are plenty of great, time-honoured 

pubs around the lusty mile where women with names like 

Gunda, Aniezka and Ilona serve the drinks. They are the heart 

and soul of St Pauli, their freshly draughted beers a labour of 

love. And they have an ear for anyone who wants to talk. You‘re 

never alone in St Pauli.

If a Hamburg residents says, “I‘m on the Kiez“, the word Kiez 

doesn‘t mean neighbourhood or quarter as it does in Walter- Berlin. In 

Hamburg, Kiez stands for the famed red-light and Möller- legendary 

nightlife district – and in Hamburg, there is only one. Park Our tour 

begins at the 1 St Pauli underground Station, the perfect 

departure point as the yellow U3 line, which comes from the 

city centre and travels past the harbour area, stops here. The 

panoramic view of the river and the ships in the port and on the 

water is marvellous when the sun is shining. On descending 

from the train follow the signs to the exit 2 reePerbahn. The 

geile Meile, or randy road, as German pop singer Udo Lindenberg 

once sang, is about 930 metres long, and now lies to our 

right. During daytime, it‘s pretty quiet along the strip, but come 

evening, the entire street and the quarter itself comes alive. 

Thousands of people of all ages are out and about in search of 

one thing only – having fun! Bright signs blink in different colours, 

tempting passers-by S inside. The offerings are abundant ranging 

from Operettenhaus, the 3 PanoPtiKum waX muSeum, tabledance 

bars, student clubs, cabaret, techno music and, of 

course, love for sale.

Sternschanze 

It wasn‘t until 1938 when the Nazis redrew the lines between 

the city districts that the Reeperbahn became part of St Pauli, 

and thereby part of Hamburg. The Reeperbahn derives its 

name from the ropemakers or rope layers, who needed a long, 

straight way in order to make ships‘ ropes. As the Reeperbahn 

– or ropeway – bordered both Hamburg and Altona with gates at 

either end – Millerntor and Nobistor – tradespeople settled here 

who, until the barricade was lifted in 1860, were considered 

undesirable in both places. Consequently, the red-light district 

Paulsencame 

into being. St Pauli has always been a district where mi-

A jewel along the strip is the 

5 davidwache, Hamburg‘s and 

maybe even Germany‘s most famous 

police station. Located on 

the corner of Davidstrasse, the police 

station was built by Hamburg‘s 

foremost architect and urban planner 

Kurt Schumacher. TV films 

have made it famous beyond the 

Hamburg city limits and it also 

‘stars‘ in the TV series Grossstadtrevier. 

The police station itself 

and its location are perfect exam- 

The noted police station Davidwache ples of tolerance in practice in St 

at Spielbudenplatz 

Pauli: while inside, policemen 

maintain law and order, outside on 

the opposite side of the street, prostitutes are plying their 

trade. Live and let live. 

The same principle goes for 6 herbertStraSSe which turns 

off Davidstrasse about 100 metres up the street and has long 

been part of the myth of St Pauli. Sex has been for sale here 

since the 19th century. Herbertstrasse is protected from prying 

eyes by tall doors and only men over age 18 are allowed into 

the 60-metre long alleyway. Women are well-advised to keep 

out, otherwise they may well be greeted with verbal abuse, 

rotten eggs, buckets of cold water and/or urine. Whilst the prostitutes 

flaunt their attractions in display windows, they do not 

wish to be gaped at like animals in a zoo. Sex for money starts 

at EUR 100 a go. 

The entrance to Herbertstrasse shields ladies of the horizontal trade from prying 

eyes. Only men over 18 are allowed to enter. 

A world apart but just on the other side of the Davidstrasse is 

the recently completed 7 bavaria Quarter. The former 

brewery grounds now feature trendy coffee shops, a fancy Chinese 

restaurant, expensive residential and office space. A highlight 

and definitely worth visiting is the 20up Lounge, the rooftop 

bar of the Empire Riverside Hotel. The view of the Hamburg 

port and the Kiez from the 20th floor is spectacular, the only 

drawback being that you cannot see the Herbertstrasse from 

here either. Davidstrasse has changed a lot. Grunge meets 

glamour. Interestingly enough, both 

worlds have not run into any trouble yet. 

Punters, prostitutes, business people 

and families evidently co-exist quite 

peacefully in this environment. 

A few metres back towards the Reeperbahn, 

pass Herbertstrasse and turn left 

into Friedrichstrasse to reach the 

8 hanS-alberS-PlatZ. Not much going 

on here during the daytime but a brief 

look at the ground levels of the buildings 

surrounding this square is enough to 

make one sense what night life is like 

here. Each building is host to a restaurant 

or bar, and each bar, each pub is packed Monument to Hans Albers 

to the hilt on the weekend. Be it Hans- 

Albers-Eck or Mary Lou‘s opposite, the crowds are loud and 

merry, dancing to hits and oldies. In the midst of the square 

stands a statue of the legendary Hamburg actor, Hans Albers, 

sculpted by Jörg Immendorff. 

Return to the Reeperbahn, turn left, cross over the road, walk 

left nearly to the end and take a turn right on 9 groSSe freiheit. 

At night time this street resembles a miniature reproduction 

of the Reeperbahn itself. Uptown girls and downtown boys, 

people of virtually every age push and shove their way down 

the crowded street attracted by the now 

high-class table-dance bar Dollhouse, 

one of the countless discothèques or music 

clubs, such as Grünspan, Kaiserkeller 

or Grosse Freiheit 36, or maybe even the 

last of the live sex shows in Hamburg, at 

the Safari. The street derives its fame 

from the 1943 movie Grosse Freiheit 

No 7, starring Hans Albers and featuring 

his hit song from the movie, Auf der 

Reeperbahn nachts um halb eins.

10 St joSePh‘S, is located on Grosse

Grosse Freiheit, teeming with night life, the street where young and old gravitate 

to pubs, clubs and bars. 

Freiheit. The name Grosse Freiheit, meaning great freedom, 

incidentally does not stand for moral freedom as one might 

think, but actually coincides with the building of this church in 

the 18th century and stands for religious freedom. Opposite 

the church is Schmuckstrasse which was home to a very small 

11 chinatown in the early 20th century. But that is all history 

now, as on May 13, 1944, the Nazis executed the ‘Chinese 

campaign‘ which led to the detention and 

subsequent torture of over 100 Chinese 

men in the Gestapo prison Fuhlsbüttel. A 

group of these men were hauled off to the 

labour camp Langer Morgen near the port 

without as much as a trial. Forced labour in 

the port, rubble-clearing and abusive treatment 

by the guards caused the death of at 

least 17 men. Today, nothing is left of Chinatown 

and Schmuckstrasse is now the street 

where transvestites ply their trade. 

Hamburg‘s Chinatown was Back to the Grosse Freiheit. In a rear court- 

in St Pauli 

yard, a plaque reminds the viewer of the famous 

12 Star club, no longer in existence 

now. It is here as well as in neighbouring clubs like the Kaiserkeller, 

Top Ten and Indra that a Liverpool rock band, more widely 

known as The Beatles, and other rock stars from the Sixties, 

among them Jimi Hendrix, Chubby Checker, Little Richard, Fats 

Domino, launched their world-famous careers. The Beatles got 

their break in Hamburg, in fact, they were stars in Hamburg long 

before anybody in England really knew them. And by the way, 

The Beatles performed at the Star Club in the 60s, today there‘s only a commemorative 

plaque. Photo left courtesy of: K&K Center of Beat, Laufgraben 16 “Rentzel Center“,

it was a female Hamburg photographer who gave them their 

famous Beatles haircut. 

In recognition of their music-career roots in Hamburg, the

Grosse Freiheit / Reeperbahn. Resembling an oversized record 

the surface will be covered in black granite, inset with 100 

strobe lights and the grooves engraved with the lyrics from 

Beatles‘ songs. Construction is scheduled to begin this year. 

Also soon to open in Hamburg – the Beatles-Haus, a venue 

combining museum, stage and much more. 

Going back towards St Pauli underground station make a worthwhile 

detour into the street 14 hamburger berg. This is the 

spot where the young party and in the last 10 years the pub 

scene here has changed considerably. Music ranging from 

punk to house, the walls are covered in wall-paper reminiscent 

of the Seventies and almost every place has at least a tiny 

dance floor. Party here, just like everywhere else on the Reeperbahn, 

until the wee hours of the morning. That‘s what this 

area has been known for for the last two hundred years. Class 

and style may have altered St Pauli‘s appearance and the Reeperbahn, 

but the myth of the geile Meile (randy road) lives on. 

There‘s only one Kiez. 

time out: 15 groSSe wallanlagen in the lower section of 

the Planten un Blomen Park, are ideal for taking a breather and 

relaxing. The entrance to this green oasis is just beyond the St

Travelling into the underground viaduct (where the train is above 

ground) Landungsbrücken presents a breath-taking view of 

Hamburg harbour. Ideally, this is where the walking tour begins. 

And the U3 is the best line for unique views of the port. Landungsbrücken, 

or landing stages, was at one time a port station 

for passenger ships. Stop here, take in the view, have a bread 

roll with fish, be lured into taking a tour of the port, watch the 

seagulls loop and fly above you. Today, the Landungsbrücken 

is the tourist hub of the port; just above the Landungsbrücken 

is 1 Stintfang, a wonderful platform for looking out over the 

river, and accessible by a long flight of stairs behind the 

underground station. A slight detour maybe, but well worth 

the exertion! 

Back to the underground station from where a 

bridge leads to the 2 landungSbrÜcKen. 

Looking left, the 3 ricKmer ricKmerS, one of 

the last great merchant sailing ships and now 

restored, has been lying here at anchor since 

1983 and is a popular sight. The three-master 

was built by the Rickmers Shipping Company 

in Bremerhaven in 1896 and named 

after the founder‘s grandson. The hull measures 97 metres in 

length, 12.2 metres in breadth and has a draught of 6 metres. 

The next stop on our walk is the 426.5-metre long 4 old elbe 

tunnel, a direct underwater connection for pedestrians, bikers 

and cars between St Pauli and Steinwerder 

on the other side of the river 

Elbe. The two tunnel sections were 

built in 1907 and completed in 1911. 

With its white-tiled walls the Old Elbe 

Tunnel evokes a charm all on its own. 

Elevators carry people and vehicles 

down inside the tunnel, tunnel attend- Inside the Old Elbe Tunnel 

ants direct traffic depending on the 

direction desired. Pedestrians have always walked against the 

traffic. In recent years the two tunnel sections have become 

increasingly popular as venues for events, exhibitions, and parties, 

one example being the sporting goods manufacturer Adidas 

who put on a fashion show here. During the “ElbArt“, the 

Old Elbe Tunnel will be used as an exhibition venue for the latest 

in modern art. 

After visiting the Old Elbe Tunnel stroll down the 5 Promenade 

to the Fish Market along the banks of the Elbe River. At the 

6 fiSh marKet, which takes place early Sunday mornings from 

5 until 10 am, continue back to the younger area of the Port of 

Hamburg. Opposite Dock 10 a bridge leads to the other side of 

the street and 7 ParK fiction. The artificial palm trees and 

the gently rolling lawn, visible long before getting there, are a 

welcome invitation to relax and look around. Skateboarders, 

musicians, residents and the “in crowd” hang out here to take 

in the panorama and the young St Paulians in equal measure. 

Barbecue or chill – the central idea behind the concept for this 

park was that residents adopt public space for their own use. 

In the planning for 10 years, the park opened in 2005.

Walk back to Park Fiction, to the left of which lies the legendary 

9 hafenStraSSe, the street occupied by squatters and the 

scene of fierce riots and street fighting between tenants and 

police between 1984 and 1990. In 1995, a number of occupied 

buildings were converted into co-ops. Even today the 

political resistance of those years and the creativity of the 

tenants is evident in the colourful frontages. Don‘t be concerned 

by a burning dustbin on the side of the road, it‘s almost 

expected here. 

Haubachsttraße Alsenstr. 

A flight of stairs leads up from Hafenstrasse 

to Bernhard-Nocht-Strasse at the 

place where it intersects the Davidstrasse. 

We have now reached the former 

site of the Bavaria Brewery, makers of 

Astra beer, now home to the 10 bavaria- 

Quartier, a whole new urban area consisting 

of hotels, flats, restaurants and 

offices, built primarily of red brick. The 

brewery was shut down in 2003, the 

buildings on the premises torn down and 

The skyline with the new subsequently replaced by three high-rise 

Bavaria Quarter buildings buildings in 2007, the Empire Riverside 

Hotel, the Astra Tower and the Atlantic-

(harbour crown). Don‘t miss a trip to the roof-top 20up bar of 

the Empire Riverside Hotel (20th floor) for undoubtedly the best 

view of the port in town. 

As you carry on walking along Bernhard-Nocht-Strasse you will 

pass the 11 troPeninStitut Institute for Tropical Medicine, the 

Federal Maritime and Hydrographic Agency and the German 

Meteorological Service. The employees of these three institu-

tions have one of the most spectacular views of the Hamburg 

port from their offices. On the left is the Public Health Authority 

St Pauli, formerly the 12 hafenKranKenhauS (harbour hospital) 

until it was closed in the late 1990s because it had become 

too expensive to run. As a result of substantial protest a 

centre comprising 20 doctor‘s offices and a health-care facility 

for the homeless and needy was set up.

The Beatles in St Pauli – 

a musical discovery tour of 

the legendary fab four 

The Beatles‘ international career was 

launched at Grosse Freiheit on the 

Hamburg Kiez in the 60s. To quote John 

Lennon, the Beatles “grew up“ amidst 

barmaids, prostitutes, sailors, waiters

songs and ends with a small concert in 

one of the clubs.

Tour Tip 

Red Lola – famous actors 

in St Pauli 

Red Lola is touched. After 30 years 

the love of her life has returned: Wolfgang! 

And then the one-time barmaid 

begins telling her story. She takes the 

listener to the Reeperbahn, bumping

a story about love, longing and prostitution 

and the story of a most unusual 

neighbourhood.

Karoline, Anna and Brigitte – life 

between the Karo and the Kiez 

Outside of what used to be the city 

gates and during the age of industrialisation 

two types of architecture 

prevailed: either buildings with narrow 

frontages and buildings in the rear 

courtyards or bourgeois town houses. 

A whole new lively scene has developed 

in these two old quarters situated 

between trade fair, slaughterhouse, 

the Dom amusement fair and red-light 

district with both commercial and residential 

space in high demand. 

March – November (monthly), Saturdays

Shopping between Kiez and Karo 

Stroll, browSe, window- 

ShoP, buy! from Small deSigner 

labelS to SeX ShoPS. 

Shopping on the KieZ can’t really be compared to shopping in 

the city centre. No international fashion designers, no mainstream 

chains. Instead, men and women will find the unusual 

here, things that aren’t available downtown. Cowboys, and 

those who dream of dressing like one, should head to Hundertmark 

Jeans & Western Store for Stetsons, long-forgotten 

Indian moccasins and St Pauli football club sweatshirts. The 

store supplies rivets for jackets, spurs for boots, Indian jewellery 

and chucks. Looking for ‘Happy Gummies’ or just regular 

condoms? Then check out the Condomerie on Spielbudenplatz, 

it’s a real experience. It also pays to shop on the side streets, 

for example, Custom Ringz, a shop featuring the most unusual 

jewellery on the right bank of the Elbe. Go to Sticky Jam for 

refrigerator magnets, key rings and chains as well as a number 

of odd souvenirs and little gifts. For 

basics, such as instant soup or tissues, 

the Esso petrol station is the 

place to go and very unique indeed. 

It is the only service station in Germany 

with a bouncer. 

The Western Store has been around 

for over 50 years 

The SchanZe has retained a degree 

of the old hippie spirit even 

though the nouveau riche have 

started to move in. Small designer 

S 


labels and tiny boutiques are the shopping style most preferred 

here. Scandinavian style at Lillestore, brand names at Baretta 

and Hardenberg. All around Susannenstrasse and the piazza 

there are lots of little shopping gems worth discovering. Wohngeschwister 

in a rear courtyard off Schanzenstrasse is ideal for 

furniture and small gift items. For a choice selection of LPs and 

CDs check out Zardoz and Burnout Records. 

Save the best for last, the Karo Quarter. 

Various hip designers have opened shops 

on the small, but select Marktstrasse ranging 

from the now nationally renowned Herr 

von Eden and the award-winning dresses 

of Anna Fuchs, a favourite with celebrities. 

Kleidermarkt offers select second-hand 

fashion. Lovers of Hamburg music of any 

genre should stop at Hanseplatte on the 

former slaughterhouse premises. And if 

you’re out on a Saturday, make sure to go 

to the flea market for furniture and clothing 

with that Sixties feel. Offerings range from 

trash to luxury, just like St Pauli itself. With 

the exception of chain stores (definite nonos 

around here), you can find just about 

anything!

Theatres and musicals 

Destination New York? No problem, departure is from the TUI 

Operettenhaus! If comedy’s more your thing then head for the 

Quatsch Comedy Club. For a complete overview of the theatre 

and musical programme in St Pauli go to hamburg-tourismus.de/ 

Veranstaltungen, Tel +49 (0)40 - 300 51 300. 

Fliegende Bauten 

The unique and charming atmosphere 

of the theatre-dinner tent Fliegende 

Bauten has become an integral part 

of the Hamburg entertainment scene. 

The programme ranges from international 

music and dance revues to comedy, 

concerts and stage performances. 

In addition to great entertainment Fliegende 

Bauten offers up-market dining 

based on a seasonal menu. 

Glacischaussee 4 

Imperial Theater 

The debut of the German adaptation of 

Grease here wrote musical history in 

Europe back in 1994, the year this theatre 

was founded. In early 2002, theatre 

manager Frank Thannhäuser decided to 

devote the theatre‘s stage productions 

to the detective and mystery story genre 

featuring masters such as Edgar 

Wallace and Agatha Christie. 


Quatsch Comedy Club 

Hamburg comes here to laugh, so should 

you! On stage for the past 15 years, 

over 10 years on TV with an audience 

counting more than 300 million viewers 

– the Quatsch Comedy Club is the mother 

of all stand-up comedy in Germany. 

The club is at home on the Reeperbahn 

where it started out in 1992. 

Reeperbahn 19 - 21 

Schmidt Theater 

Off-beat, way-out, but wonderful. 

Schmidt Theater stages grand galas, 

the legendary Schmidt midnight show, 

musical productions such as Villa Sonnenschein 

and top-notch guest performances, 

all reflecting the dazzling culture 

of the Kiez. 

Spielbudenplatz 24 - 25 

Schmidts Tivoli 

Excellent varieté shows and guest 

performances plus two perennial favourites, 

Caveman and Heisse Ecke, 

in one of the city’s prettiest theatres. 

The bar Glanz & Gloria, the restaurant 

Schatto Pauli and Angie’s Nightclub 

are open to everyone, not just theatre- 

goers. 


St Pauli Theater 

This tiny theatre on the Reeperbahn 

is 166 years young and with its excellent 

stage productions has numbered 

among Hamburg’s top theatres for 

years. Some of the better-known plays 

include The Threepenny Opera starring 

Ulrich Tukur, Cabaret starring Gustav 

Peter Wöhler and A Streetcar Named 

Desire starring Ben Becker. In addition, 

the theatre offers a great programme 

mixture of top cabaret and comedy, 

musical evenings and readings plus 

international dance and music revues 

during the summer season.

Musical Tip 

The musical Heisse Ecke 

St Pauli sings and dances at the corner 

snack stand Heisse Ecke. Experience 

life on the Kiez – wrapped up in 

a rousing musical. 

Every evening nine actors and actresses 

slip in and out of over 50 

stage roles and costumes, some of 

them consuming several cold sausages 

during each performance. This 

truly is a labour of love! Add to that 

22 great, catchy tunes, a unique ambiance 

and a foot-tapping, fast stage 

show. No doubt, the hottest corner 

on the Kiez is at the cult theatre 

Schmidts Tivoli. This is a celebration 

of life at its best, comprising everything 

from great emotions to great 

fun. 

All of St Pauli seems to meet at the 

corner snack stand Heisse Ecke. The

TUI Operettenhaus 

Ich war noch niemals in New York (Never 

Been to New York Before) recently 

celebrated its world premiere at the 

Operettenhaus. The musical comedy 

cleverly weaves 23 of songwriter Udo 

Jürgens’ hits into a stormy story covering 

three generations. The Operettenhaus 

at Spielbudenplatz looks back 

on a stage tradition of more than 160 

years with Cats debuting as the first international 

musical to be staged in Germany 

in 1986.

stab each other in the back. All while 

grabbing a quick curry sausage and a 

wisecrack on the side for free. All of 

St Pauli in three hours!

Music and festivals Calender of events 

The Reeperbahn has always been known for its unrivalled concentration 

of music clubs and its varied music culture characterised 

by the continuous development of new music trends 

and performences on one of the countless stages carrying on 

the tradition of legendary clubs such as the Star Club or Mojo 

right up to today. 

THE REEPERBAHN FESTIVAL 2008 

St Pauli clubs are pruning themselves in excited expectation for the 

third round of the Reeperbahn Festival. Between the sinful mile and 

the Feldstrasse bunker some 150 music bands will be performing on 

about 20 stages from 25 - 27 September 2008 while festival revelers 

easily shuttle from one location 

to the other. 

One of the many clubs participating in the 

Reeperbahn Festival is the Molotow 

“I saw them long before 

anybody had even heard 

of them”! Insiders love to 

boast about the bands they 

have ‘discovered’ long before 

they make the quantum 

leap to international stardom. 

The Reeperbahn Festival 

provides experienced 

music aficionados as well as 

inexperienced newcomers 

an encounter with top-class 

talents. 

In the style of the renowned SXSW-Festival in Austin, Texas, the 

Reeperbahn Festival has committed itself to New International Music. 

Instead of headline names from mainstream music the indoor 

festival has opted for up-and-coming cross-genre newcomer bands 

across the board. However, next to the hotly traded newcomers from 

the local and international music scene several big names will be part 

of the line-up. The heart of the Reeperbahn Festival, the 

gathering point and the open-air location 

is Spielbudenplatz, which in addition 

to the live performances, 

will be the site for an innovative 

side programme, the Flatstock 

Poster Convention. Music enthusiasts 

can look forward to a brilliant 

weekend on the Kiez! 

25 - 27 September 2008 

Tickets: 3 days: EUR 55, 2 days: EUR 38, 

1 day: EUR 26 (all prices include VAT, HVV combi transportation ticket, system and 

advance booking fee). Tickets available at all regular ticket agencies, online at

The Hamburg funfair Dom 

time out from an everyday routine. 

the hamburg dom, northern 

germany’S largeSt funfair. 

To some people the winter break 

is over when the football season 

opens and one of the two Hamburg 

football teams – HSV or FC 

St Pauli – resumes playing. To others, 

it’s when the Dom is back 

in town. The what? The Dom – a 

huge funfair, stationed right in St 

Oktoberfest flair at the Hamburg fun- Pauli between Millerntor Stadium 

fair Dom, not in its native Munich and the Karo Quarter. Three times 

a year, the Dom comes to Hamburg, 

in spring, summer and winter, for four weeks each time, 

dazzling the Heiligengeistfeld and bathing its surroundings in 

bright colours and flashing lights. It is rightly known as the largest 

funfair in the North, because a total of nine million men, 

women and children visit the 1.6-km long Dom every year. The 

25 rides on the fairgrounds are enough to make even the most 

experienced funfair connoisseur lose his or her cool. Classics 

like the popular log flume, the small rollercoaster 

and the giant ferris wheel, an 

all-time favourite. But the longest 

queues are for the roller-coaster, the 

giant octopus with its five tentacles 

and 25 rota-ting gondolas attached to 

each tentacle and the latest attraction, 

the ‘No Limit XXL’. What on first 

sight appears to be a gently swaying ride is something only 

the toughest and most experienced funfair fan can stand. This 

single-arm looping carousel, 54 metres high, moves at a speed 

of up to 120 km/h – obviously, only steel stomachs can take 

that. On a lighter note: there are great bread 

rolls with fish, half-metre long fried sausages 

and candy floss. An outing to the Dom is 

synonymous with throwing all caloric cares to 

the wind. Who can resist the temptation of 

pancakes, toffee apples, biscuits, all butterrich 

and finger-licking good. Horror fans will 

love riding the ghost train and the ‘Psycho’, 

the gleaming green house of the latter fashioned 

after the eponymous Hitchcock film. 

On three levels, visitors experience an earthquake 

or freefall in an elevator. 

The Dom always features a special attraction: 

in the midst of all the action a small Crowded grounds, wild rides 

world created around a specific theme. It 

might be a medieval witch village, a holiday on a beach in the 

Caribbean or a winter wonderland. And matching each theme 

there are booths, craftsmen, performers, dancers and singers. 

There’s live music almost every evening on a 60-sq m 

stage, people let their hair down, dance, and relax with a caipirinha, 

a mojito or simply a good old draught beer. 

Spectacular fireworks give it the final touch every Friday 

evening. Almost too much excitement for one visit, better to 

go back twice, three times or maybe even four? 

For the nostalgic – the Chair-o-Plane continues to appeal in addition to 

modern fun rides

Museums and galleries Hotels 

St Pauli might be the wrong place to expect high art, but the 

art on display here is always unusual, exhibitions or works one 

wouldn’t see in Cologne or Berlin. For example, the museum 

ships CAP SAN DIEGO and RICKMER RICKMERS in the harbour 

and the Panoptikum Wax Museum housing contemporary celebrities 

such as Robbie Williams, Harry Potter and Madonna. 

Nevertheless, lovers of new art should definitely schedule a visit 

to one of the numerous galleries in St Pauli.

Eating out in St Pauli is a treat to the palette. Anything goes: 

good traditional German fare, refined French cuisine or crossover 

Euro-Asian. The choice is varied and ranges from the cultstatus 

Italian Cuneo to Abendmahl with its fine selection of 

wines or the architecturally appealing River Kasematten near 

the Fish Market. Café au lait, caffè macchiato, cappuccino, with 

cake or pastries, all serve to sweeten a walk around St Pauli. 

Café Amphore offers a splendid view of the port.

Party people, get your kicks on the Kiez, but don’t restrict it to 

the football matches held at the Millerntor Stadium! The Reeperbahn 

is full of great bars, pubs and trendy clubs and by the very 

latest Friday evening it is the place of choice to go for partying, 

drinking, dancing or tuning into a live concert. No doubt everyone 

will find something to suit his or her taste, be it techno or 

heavy metal, friendly socialising or flirty barmaids who might 

suddenly jump up on the bar and dance to the music.

Rip open!

adults only 

“No admission under 18 years of age”, reads a sign in the window 

of many pubs and clubs, most especially on the entrance 

to Herbertstrasse. And in the case of the latter with the added 

quip, “no women allowed”. There are quite a number of X-rated 

clubs on and off the Reeperbahn. 

Let’s talk about sex – for money. Adults over 18 will need EUR 50 to 

100, extras cost more of course. At table-dance bars, it’s only look, 

no touching. The rules are very strict and the dancers are the ones 

who decide how far they wish to go. For example, at the Dollhouse, 

renowned far beyond the borders of Hamburg for its well-toned dancers, 

it is they who decide whether they leave the Dollhouse Dollars in 

their panties or garter belt. The dancers’ costumes cater to virtually 

any preference – cowboy, sailor, schoolgirl, biker babe and more. 

Guests pay with ‘play money’. A Dollhouse Dollar costs EUR 1.50, 

admission charge is EUR 10 and a table-dance show at an individual 

table costs EUR 30. Here again, watch out what you order to drink, 

otherwise at the end of the evening the bill might turn out to be a nasty 

surprise if you’ve ordered anything other than beer. The same goes 

for table-dance bars such as the Tutti Frutti on the Reeperbahn: they 

may only charge EUR 10 for a beer, but cognac for example costs EUR 

20 and a bottle of asti (sparkling wine) costs a juicy EUR 300. Inside, 

the dancers dance as long as a song lasts; when it’s over they usually 

drop their panties. Caution is advised if a dancer sits down at a guest’s 

table and asks a guest to buy her a drink. You can be sure she’ll order 

nothing less than asti! 

Safari is a club with cult status and the last club in St Pauli featuring 

a live sex show. The performers strip to the buff during brief stage 

numbers such as “Phantom of the Opera”, “Cabaret“ or “Rocky Horror“; 

the man and woman perform live sex on stage in front of the 

audience. 

There are touts outside every table-dance bar and varieté club trying to 

entice customers to go in and watch the show. Some of them wear a 

doorman’s uniform, others dress in normal street clothes to keep out 

the cold night air. Touts are, generally speaking, older men. No reason 

to be frightened off, it’s an old Hanseatic tradition and the German 

word ankobern means as much as enlist, recruit. 

For those who do not wish to watch but would rather retreat with their 

partner to a hotel or their own flat, there are loads of shops on the 

Reeperbahn offering any number of sex toys, ranging from pornos to 

latex to super-size condoms, pretty little nothings and joke items. For 

those who love to experiment the sky’s the limit at specialty erotica 

shops like “Sexy Devil”, “Sexy Angel“ or “World of Sex“. On the other 

hand, none of this is necessary in order to simply go to a decent pub 

in St Pauli where you’re certain to meet a great gal or guy!

Tips and informations 

In St Pauli you can live and let live. This is true of the people 

who work and live there and it is true of visitors to the ‘sinful 

mile’ as well. 

St Pauli is a place of peaceful co-existence with yuppies and punks, 

partying teenies and established St Pauli residents, tourists, theatregoers 

and homeless sharing the streets, sites and venues of their 

neighbourhood. No staring at people who look different or act differently 

than what is considered normal. However, one thing people here 

do not like at all is when snide or derogatory remarks are made about 

the hookers. After all, the Kiez is their workplace and in many cases 

their home. Don’t intervene in discussions or arguments. Usually it’s 

only half as bad as it seems and the people involved will work it out 

themselves. The people here do their own thing, so a word to the 

wise: don’t meddle in other people’s affairs. Nowhere else in 

Hamburg does the old saying ‘live and let live’ weigh 

as heavily as it does here. And that is precisely 

what makes the Kiez so special and so unique. 

Haubachsttraße Alsenstr. 

For further information and/or assistance please 

contact the Davidwache, Germany’s most prominent 

police station, located at Spielbudenplatz 31, 

Tel +49 (0)40-428 65 15 10. Officially speaking, 

the Davidwache is actually Police Station 15. 

Useful information and tips when visiting the Kiez 

» The Reeperbahn is no different 

than any other place in the world. 

Where there are crowds, there are 

pickpockets. 

» In accordance with a voluntary 

commitment by kiosk and petrol 

station owners, no beverages in 

glass bottles are sold between 8 

pm and 8 am. Don’t be surprised to 

find beer in plastic bottles. 

» Due to recent incidents the City of 

Hamburg has felt compelled to issue 

a general weapon ban for the 

Kiez. The areas where this applies 

are marked with yellow signs with 

clearly indicated symbols. You are 

well advised to leave your Swiss 

knife at home or back at the hotel. 

» Order drinks in clubs and bars as 

listed on the beverage menu. That 

avoids any misunderstandings or 

discussions with the waiter when it 

comes time to pay the bill. 

» If a tout outside a sex club is S too 

pushy, often all it takes is a friendly 

“No thank you!”. These guys are 

only doing their job.
