★★★★★7 months agoFantastic displays in a small, interesting space about how commodities like coffee, tea, and rubber were central to Hamburg's economy for centuries. Nice little cafe and some interactive displays (not just geared toward children).

★★★★★a year agoA small museum, only one large room, but very very detailed and educational. I would totally stop by here to learn about the fascinating history of the Hamburg trade industry
