Hamburg's Rathaus (Town Hall) has been the city-state's working seat of government since it was inaugurated in 1897 — home to the office of the First Mayor and the meeting rooms of the Senate and Parliament. Its public lobby and courtyard are free to enter without joining a tour.
A fixed-price guided tour takes visitors through the building's state rooms. Because it remains a working government building, tours can be suspended without notice for official state events — check current availability before planning a visit around it.
