Art, history and nature on Elbchaussee |
Elbchaussee Hamburg, Hamburg 22609 +49 (0)40 3005 1300 (Information fur touristen) |
The plain little Elbschlößchen is slightly modest in comparison to the other ornate buildings along Elbchaussee. Merchant Johann Heinrich Baur originally intended to use the classical style building as a country home, but Baur and his children died shortly after the house was completed. Sold to the Elbschloß brewery in 1881, the building was used for administrative purposes and a brewery was built in the garden. After several changes of hands, the estate is now a public building and home to temporary exhibitions of art and design. A walk through the stately halls and the wonderful gardens enables the visitor to experience the entire beauty of this little 'castle'. Review © 2009, Wcities |
