Götzberger Weg 95-101

The housing estate at Götzberger Weg 95–101, comprising 36 one- to four-room flats (built in 1964), is situated in the Langenhorn district. This neighbourhood, in the Hamburg Nord district, has a population of 45,000 spread over 13.8 square kilometres, making it one of the less densely populated areas of the Hanseatic city. The neighbourhood’s most famous resident was the former Federal Chancellor Helmut Schmidt, who lived here with his wife Loki at Neubergerweg 80/82. This is now the home of the Helmut and Loki Schmidt Foundation, which aims to preserve the memory of the Hanseatic statesman’s work. A visit to the Fritz-Schumacher Estate is also well worth it. The legendary Chief Architect created a garden city here based on the idea that residents could be self-sufficient by growing their own fruit and vegetables. The estate has been a listed building since 2013. When it comes to nature, Langenhorn has plenty to offer alongside its many flower gardens. The Raakmoor nature reserve can be explored via wooden walkways. The Kiwittsmoor natural swimming area, which underwent extensive renovation in 2015, is also popular with residents of neighbouring districts. With the underground stations Langenhorn-Markt, Langenhorn-Nord, Kiwittsmoor and Ochsenzoll, as well as several bus routes, the district is ideally connected to the local public transport network.
