Ditmar-Koel-Straße
20459 Hamburg
The Portugiesenviertel (portuguese district) is located in the heart of the city, just between the Landungsbrücken and the Michel. The district got its name in the early sixties during a wave of immigration by Portuguese Harbour Workers which settled down in this area. Nowadays a lot of Portuguese restaurants, cafés and pastelarias are located in the district, especially the main street "Ditmar-Koel-Straße" is a popular place to go for tourists, but also a lot of employees working near to the district are coming here for lunch. In the last years the Portugiesenviertel became more and more a place-to-be and even if there aren't so many Portuguese living anymore, this place still feels like "Little Portugal" and has a special Mediterranean atmosphere.

Cap San Diego
Überseebrücke - 20459 HamburgThe Cap San Diego is one of the last remaining ships of a series of six fast cargo ships built between 1961 and 1962 on shipyards in Hamburg and Kiel for the Hamburg-Südamerikanische Dampfschiffgesellschaft Eggert & Amsinck, the Hamburg-Southamerican Steamship Company. This type of ship represents the peak of conventional cargo shipbuilding. It belonged to the fast lines of its time with a big cold-storage hold and modern cabins for 12 passengers. Technical details: The ship with a 11,650 horsepower, two-stroke engine, is a good example of classical engine construction before the advent of electronic control engineering. The technical equipment is almost entirely preserved and in excellent working order. The interior design by the well-known Hamburg architect, Prof. C. Pinnau, is from the late 1950s and reflects the fashion of these days. The foredeck is extremely long, the middle part of the ship is a streamlined, closed construction. After many years abroad, the Cap San Diego returned to Hamburg in 1986.
