In Max Liebermann's Garden you'll find Liebermann's later work - Paintings, pastels and drawings from his summer residence at Berlin's Wannsee lake. Miniature Wonderland is one of the biggest mock-up railways of the world! Experience a great landscape with houses and figures, cars and trees, hills and valleys, night and day and, of course, lots and lots of tracks and trains. The Russian spy submarine U-434 is open to the public! The relic of the Cold War is shown in Hamburg's HafenCity and it is the biggest non-nuclear submarine of the world. Within the walls of the Hamburg Dungeon lie more than 1,000 years of gruesomely authentic history vividly brought back to life... and death. Hamburg's city centre offers more than just shopping; the streets are peppered with historical shop, trading and office buildings and you can also marvel at the imposing town hall. The five main churches of the Hanseatic city form Hamburg's skyline. One of them is the famous Michel-St. Michaelis, a Hamburg landmark.
