Finkenwerder

This audio guide introduces Finkenwerder, a place where Hamburg’s port, aviation industry, and village life quietly meet. You’ll learn how this former fishing village became home to dockworkers, aircraft production, and a surprisingly rural lifestyle. The guide explains why ferries still play an important role here and how Airbus shapes everyday life on the island. You’ll also discover why Finkenwerder is a popular destination for Sunday outings — whether for a countryside walk or a visit to one of the city’s largest industrial sites. Along the way, the story hints at a nearby place called Teufelsbrück, and why even bridges sometimes come with legends attached. A calm stop, a few good stories, and plenty of time to explore — if you wish.
