The Hamburg-Harburg repair shop was a repair shop for freight cars . It is located at Harburger Schlachthofstraße 1–3, north of the Hamburg-Harburg train station .

The first repair shop in Harburg was opened in 1872 as the workshop of the Cologne-Minden Railway Company . In June 1885 a workshop was opened at the final location of the repair shop. When this company was nationalized, it was transferred to the Prussian State Railways , in 1920 to the Deutsche Reichsbahn , in 1950 to the Deutsche Bundesbahn , and was last operated by the Deutsche Bahn . It was closed in 1995.

The building complex consists primarily of workshop halls in solid masonry construction with an iron roof structure, the interior of the halls is illuminated through windows in the walls and skylights in the roof. It is under monument protection (ID 28040 of the Hamburg monument list) and has been renovated. The track systems including the transfer table were removed. In September 2007 a branch of the Bauhaus hardware store chain was opened in the halls .
