Come discover the dark side of Hamburg with us! You may think you know the history of the beautiful port city of Hamburg. Discover them with us.

Perhaps you have seen some of the spots we will visit on this tour. We can assure you, however, that you have never seen the city in this light before. By day, Hamburg is a lovely, busy city with tourists and locals alike; but at night, the streets are empty and filled with dark secrets of the past. The Haunted History of Hamburg Tour features some of the horrific and terrifying events that have been buried in Hamburg’s past.

One of Hamburg's most recognizable landmarks has more to its story than its glass façade.

03/11/2026

In 1973, workers dredging the Elbe discovered a fragment of a human skull near Hahnöfersand.

Scientists initially believed it was 36,000 years old - and possibly belonged to a Neanderthal–human hybrid.

But the story took an unexpected turn.

Later dating revealed the bone was approximately 7,500 years old. And in April 2026, new research confirmed it belonged to Homo sapiens.

More than 50 years after its discovery, scientists have answered one mystery. But another remains: who was this person, and how did they die?

Hamburg has lost a piece of rock ’n’ roll history.

Horst Fascher, co-founder of the legendary Star-Club, has died at 90.

When the club opened in April 1962, The Beatles were among its first performers. It went on to host music legends including Little Richard, Chuck Berry, and Jerry Lee Lewis.

But Fascher's legacy was complicated. A former boxer and St. Pauli bouncer, he was involved in a fatal fight with sailors in the 1950s and later faced multiple assault complaints. His legal troubles led to imprisonment and a ban from St. Pauli.

Fascher helped shape Hamburg's music history, but his story also reflects the violence of the city's postwar nightlife.

History isn't always comfortable, and remembering someone's contributions doesn't mean overlooking their actions.

More than 800 years of history are being uncovered beneath Hamburg's streets!

Who knows what else is waiting to be discovered?

Learn more about the excavation through the NDR article, linked in our bio, under "Excavation News."

OFFICIAL COMPANY STATEMENT

At Haunted History Hamburg, we value transparency. That is why we like ghosts. Duh.

Over the past several weeks, we have received feedback regarding Derek.

We heard your concerns and we acted. To be fair, not swiftly, but eventually.

Effective immediately, Derek will no longer be leading Haunted History Hamburg tours.

Following a ridiculously brief internal investigation, it was confirmed that Derek repeatedly claimed Hamburg was founded by vampires, and that one fell in love with a mortal, and there was a werewolf in the mix somehow? Unclear.

When presented with historical evidence, Derek's official response was, and we quote:

"You can't prove me wrong."

We appreciate Derek's enthusiasm, but not really, and we sincerely regret the events of February 30.

In completely unrelated news, ourJuly tour dates are now available. We have only 10 public tour days scheduled this month, so reserve your spot early.

Use code WELOVEYOUDEREK to receive 20% off any July tour. The discount code is valid through July 6, 2026.

Visit hauntedhistoryhamburg.de to view available dates and book your tour.

EDIT: Apparently we have to clarify that Derek isn't real and we were told this is bad marketing.
