Long Day of Urban Nature 2025
Up on the roof – into the green!

That was the motto of our guided tour as part of the ‘Long Day of Urban Nature’ on 21 June. Together with 15 interested people, great local cooperation partners and a few degrees Celsius too many, we explored a total of three roofs in HafenCity.

Participants gained an insight into possible roof utilisation, active roof design by residents and, at the same time, spectacular views of the Hamburg skyline. Whether it's growing vegetables, creating an insect paradise or a meeting place for shared cooking and enjoyment – there are virtually no limits to the ideas that can be realised on these roofs. True to the theme of the Long Day of Urban Nature, we also discovered a few wild animals that have claimed the special habitat of the roof for themselves.

Many thanks to the two housing projects AMIGO* and Dock71, as well as the Design Centre, for taking us up there and granting us this breathtaking backdrop!
