Hamburg is a center of attraction for business, tourism, culture and creativity. If you also want to "anchor" in Hamburg, here you will find extensive information on your new start. 

The "stone road", paved in the 13th century, since the beginning of the main street from the old city center (about St. Peter's Church) to the east, gave the stone gate the name. As late as 1320 it was in direct extension of Steinstraße. Even with the installation of a new extended fortification with Wall instead of wall in 1544, the stone gate was in the flight of the stone road.
The last stone gate was built in 1617 as part of the extension of the Hamburg ramparts. Since the stone road led to one of the bastions provided, the stone gate now had to be installed a little further north between two bastions in the defenses.
At sunset, during church time, at citizenship meetings and at fire, the city gates were closed. [2]
When 1697 [1] the area of St. George was enclosed with a Vorwerk in the course of Lohmühlenstraße in the fortress, the stone gate lost its immediate importance as a fortress gate. It now served only as a border of the city of Hamburg to their land area. The outer borders of the fortress were now the Lübeck Gate and the Berlin Gate.
