List of monuments in Hamburg

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The list of Hamburg monuments lists the monuments in the Free and Hanseatic City of Hamburg . These include still pictures, memorial stones and plaques, fountains and similar objects that were erected, for example, to commemorate or honor a person or an event, as well as to commemorate (memorial).

Sculptures and other representations that were set up as works of art in public space and tombs are only listed in individual cases, provided that they are listed in the specialist literature for the monuments (see also the list of cemeteries in Hamburg and Ohlsdorf cemetery ).

The numerous memorials and memorials for the victims in the time of National Socialism (1933–1945) are comprehensively presented in Hamburg's memorials for the victims of National Socialism and Neuengamme concentration camp memorial .

Likewise, only the most important of the so-called war or war memorials of the First World War (1914–1918) and the Second World War (1939–1945) are listed, as in Hamburg a total of more than 150 such monuments (including other wars) exist in public spaces alone. (see also cemeteries , Evangelical Lutheran churches and other Hamburg churches )
