Hamburg Art Galleries
(Hamburg, Germany, DE)



Hamburg is not only a media city, but it also boasts plenty of art and creativity in the city's many art galleries and shops.

Fine collections by famous masters can be found at the Hamburg Kunsthalle und Galerie der Gegenwart (Art Hall and Contemporary Gallery), as well as at smaller privately owned galleries.

Particularly notable are the numerous art-related exhibitions and small arty museums, which are to be found along the 'Art Mile', a stretch known locally in Hamburg as the 'Kunstmeile' and sited between the Deichtorstrasse and the Glockengiesserwall. The main art galleries are listed below.
