Tolles Gebäude... Man kann dort ein Modell von Hamburg City bestaunen... Mich hat das total abgeholt... Musste mal abgestaubt werden... Sonst aber super dargestellt...

Super um sich ein bisschen geschichtliches Wissen abzuholen, wirklich sehr interessant!

Das Kesselhaus war früher die Energiezentrale der Speicherstadt. Heute ist es ein Informationszentrum der HafenCity. Sehenswert ist das Modell der HafenCity, das fortlaufend aktualisiert wird! Das Café ist seit der Corona-Pandemie leider geschlossen.
