Grab the S-Bahn or ferry to this quaint old neighbourhood ten kilometres from the city centre above the right bank of the Elbe.
Treppenviertel literally means “Stairs Quarter” and that’s where this neighbourhood’s allure comes from.
Untouched by the war, the Treppenviertel is a chaos of sharp, twisting alleys, walled by beautiful whitewashed houses and interlinked by stairways.
