Curiosities found in Hamburg's sewers |
An den St. Pauli-Landungsbrücken 49 Hamburg, Hamburg 20359 +49 (0)40 3498 5055 |
At this museum you can virtually "experience the underground" by joining a tour of Hamburg's historic sewer system. If that doesn't sound too inviting, you can just take a look at the exhibits here. The everyday items wouldn't impress people at all, if they hadn't ended up here after such an unusual journey through drains, sewers and toilets. Most of them were fished out of the sewage here at the great pump station. The interesting exhibition has a lot of funny curiosities, like things lost in bathrooms such as jewellery, dentures and pieces of clothing. There might still be an explanation for these finds, but what happened to the shoes, toys and cans of food here? And what about cigars, birth certificates, bicycles and wheelbarrows? They really make you wonder. Tours can be organised on request. Review © 2009, Wcities |
