Hamburg (Germany)
Germany's second-largest city, located in northern Germany on the Elbe River, is the city of Hamburg.
The first mention of the inhabited area dates back to the 2nd century AD. The settlement was originally called Treva. Although Christian shrines were built in Hamburg, the city remained pagan and was occupied and destroyed many times in the past. During the High Middle Ages, Hamburg became an important commercial centre. In the 14th century, it became the first member of the Hanseatic League of trading cities. In the past, the city also experienced cholera epidemics and natural disasters, mostly fires. In 1842, Hamburg was hit by the most destructive fire in history and most of the houses were irreparably destroyed. Therefore, most of the buildings date from more recent times.
Hamburg is home to Germany's largest port and the second-largest container port in Europe, making the city an increasingly important commercial centre.
