description

Several shows will be presented, which are supposed to represent the "dark side" of Hamburg's history . The historical Gängeviertel , the Great Fire of Hamburg in 1842 and the person of Klaus Störtebeker , who was executed on Grasbrook in Hamburg in 1401, are all discussed. Further contents are the torture , the inquisition and the black death . In addition, there has been the show "Santa Fu" since 2018, which is about the notorious Hamburg prison . The visitors are included in the scenes.

Since March 2008 the tour has ended with a " free fall ". On the eight-meter-high system from the Swiss manufacturer ABC Rides , visitors are moved in two rows of ten people each over a distance of eight meters in the dark at a maximum speed of around 35 km / h towards the ground. The scene has been involved in the story of a prison break from the "Santa Fu" prison since 2018.

In 2014, the waterway on the theme of storm surge 1717 was replaced by a new one that simulates a smuggling trip.

The Merlin Entertainments Group is the owner of the Hamburg Dungeon . There are similar establishments as Berlin Dungeon , The Amsterdam Dungeon , York Dungeon , London Dungeon , Edinburgh Dungeon and Blackpool Tower Dungeon (in the Blackpool Tower ).
