Stay Safe in These Areas
Hamburg has a moderate crime rate and is considered a relatively safe city. However, being informed about potential risks in specific areas can help visitors take necessary precautions.
- St. Pauli: This district is famous for its nightlife and the Reeperbahn (red-light district). The area experiences a higher incidence of petty theft, public intoxication, and occasional altercations, particularly late at night and on weekends. Lone women and minors should be vigilant and aware of their surroundings in this area.
- Sternschanze (Schanzenviertel): Has a higher crime rate than other neighbourhoods, particularly concerning petty theft and drug-related issues. Visitors are advised to keep to well-lit and populated streets. Sternschanzenpark is sometimes mentioned as an area to be cautious in, especially after dark.
- Around Hauptbahnhof (Central Station): Like many central station areas in large cities, the vicinity around Hamburg Hauptbahnhof can attract pickpockets, drug users, and homeless people.
- St. Georg: St. Georg is a diverse neighbourhood, with some parts, particularly around Steindamm and Lange Reihe, known for prostitution and drug activity. Hansaplatz in St. Georg is also sometimes mentioned as an area to be aware of.
The general emergency number in Germany is 112 (for fire and medical emergencies) and 110 (for the police).
Safety Tips for Travellers in Hamburg:
Be aware of your surroundings:
Stay alert to suspicious behaviour, such as someone following you, paying you abnormal attention, or getting too close. If a situation or a person makes you feel uncomfortable, discreetly remove yourself.
Keep valuables secure
Keep your phone, wallet, and other valuable items out of easy reach for pickpockets. Use a snatch-proof bag, like a cross-body bag, as an extra precaution.
Avoid walking alone in poorly lit or deserted areas at night
Stick to well-lit and populated streets. If you need to travel at night, consider using a taxi or a ride-sharing service. Make sure the service you choose is registered and legitimate.
Let someone know your plans
Before venturing out alone, inform someone at your accommodation about where you are going and what time you are likely to return.
Be cautious on public transport at night
Stick to the busier areas of your transport. Ensuring you are close to the driver or other passengers will deter opportunistic criminals
