Overview

Forget the tourist traps, the cheap thrills and the bachelor parties. Under the flashing neon light of the Reeperbahn lies a wild, unpolished and deeply political district that has been fighting for its soul for decades.

We trace its evolution from a rough seafaring hub to a gloomy incubator for rock 'n' roll legends and on to a modern battleground for housing rights and anti-fascist resistance.
