BallinStadt — Emigrant Museum Hamburg

It's a captivating story — the tale of BallinStadt, the 'Emigration City', where millions of people found a safe haven before embarking on their journey to the New World in search of a better life. The museum chronicles the great European migration to America from 1850 to 1934. Here, you can explore the various emigration stations throughout the centuries. Across 14 themed rooms, the museum recounts the stories of emigration to the New World across four eras. In the family research centre, you can trace your ancestors in Hamburg: you have access to the digitised version of the unique Hamburg passenger lists.
