Port of Hamburg Magazine 4.2025
Europe
Even back during the days of the Hanseatic League, Hamburg was a bustling trading hub – a place for the exchange of goods, ideas, and cultures. This openness and curiosity about the world continues to define the city today. It is the foundation on which the port city is shaping its future. Today, the Port of Hamburg is Europe’s largest rail port – a decisive factor for sustainable logistics and efficient hinterland routes. Around half of all containers are already being transported onward by rail. This is not only a logistical achievement, but also a clear commitment to climate protection and long-term viability. In doing so, Hamburg contributes to the security of supply for Germany and Europe – especially in times of global upheaval.
That is why this issue is dedicated entirely to Europe – presented in a special interview edition featuring a variety of voices and perspectives. Europe inspires, and that is worth talking about.
