Region/Country: Region/Land: Hamburg, Holy Roman Empire

Hamburg is a harbour town on the rivers Elbe and Alster in Northern Germany. It grew around an 8th-century fortification and became one of the most important trading places in the Hanseatic network - together with Lübeck - as a crucial turnover point on the east-west trade routes, connecting the Baltic and North Sea and the German hinterland via the Elbe river.
