In the Hamburg Speicherstadt, there is much to discover in the largest model railway system in the world! Miniatur Wunderland "Miniature Wonderland" has been enriched with two attractions since recently: Elbe Philharmonic Hall and HafenCity have been opened in a festive ceremony!

The 930 trains with nearly 14,450 railway wagons, 228,000 trees, 215,000 figures, 8,850 cars, 13,000 metres of track, 3,660 buildings and bridges, were set up in minute detail by 230 employees in over 580,000 man-hours. In this superlative model landscape, you witness realistic railway operations entirely computer-controlled. There is even day and night in the railway world - and that's every 15 minutes. Miniatur Wunderland has been presenting HafenCity and Elbe Philharmonic Hall in a small format since recently. Look forward to the smallest concert hall in the world!

The Harz, with its seemingly endless ICE high-speed route and over 130 trains, is here along with landscapes from Austria and Scandinavia, and replicas of famous Hamburg districts and attractions from St. Michaelis Church and Hagenbeck Zoo to the world port.

The USA in Hamburg draws crowds with its desert metropolis and paradise for gamblers, Las Vegas: More than 10% of all Wunderland lights – around 33,000 – are installed here. The landscape of the other areas is breathtaking as well: The Keys and Cape Canaveral pass directly into Las Vegas, and the Grand Canyon is only separated by a highway from Mount Rushmore and Yosemite Park.
