Elbphilharmonie Hamburg 3D - Experience Hamburg’s landmark digitally
The Elbphilharmonie Hamburg is situated right on the river Elbe, at the tip of the HafenCity district and in the immediate vicinity of the UNESCO World Heritage site “Speicherstadt with Kontorhaus district and Chilehaus”.
The Elbphilharmonie serves as a focal point at the interface of the city and port and as the landmark of Hamburg – the music capital of the north. Rising to a height of 110 metres, the spectacular wave-like glass façade designed by Swiss architects Herzog & de Meuron seems to be almost floating above the Kaispeicher, the historic red-brick base of the building structure.
The opening of the Elbphilharmonie on 11 and 12 January 2017 attracted great international attention. The building’s two concert halls are hosting high-calibre concerts from various genres. In addition to the halls, the Elbphilharmonie comprises one large music education area, several bistros and cafés, a hotel, as well as the Plaza, a public viewing platform at a height of 37 metres with stunning views over the city and the port.
