Old signal box

A natural oasis yet close to the city

This vacation rental, which sleeps 2–3 people, is located at the rear of the former historic signal box of the Vierländer Railway in the Vierlanden district, in the Kirchwerder neighborhood. The truly unique, nature-filled location—about 400 meters from the nearest public road, directly adjacent to Hamburg’s largest nature reserve, the Kirchwerder Meadows, and the Kirchwerder Marschbahndamm hiking and biking trail—is ideal for nature lovers seeking peace and quiet.

You’ll be staying in the heart of nature, yet still able to reach downtown Hamburg—with all its cultural offerings—in just 30 minutes by car. There is also a bus stop very nearby.

The Elbe River, swimming lakes, restaurants such as the Zollenspieker Fährhaus, the Elbe ferry, and organic farms are all in the immediate vicinity. All shopping options for daily needs and a playground are within walking distance.

The former signal box and estate have already been used twice as a filming location for the ARD crime series *Nord bei Nordwest*.
