Cityhouse of Hamburg, Germany (*1897)

The cityhouse (or townhall or however you call it) of Hamburg was constructed around 1897 and planned by many architects over a period of 43 years.
It is 111m in wide and 112m heigh, and in his glory one of the few buildings in germany which remain completely in the so called "Historicism". de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Historismus (several more languages).
de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hamburger_Rathaus (some other languages)

I will provide several detailed shots in the future.
So far there are 3 PictureInPicture´s provided so you get a complete overview of Hamburgs "Rathaus". Hover your mouse above the image to see them.

Well, there are so many "Hamburg"s - in Wikipedia there are 28 cities called "Hamburg", but I suggest there will be more which aren´t listed at WikiPedia.
Well, the Pennsylvania-one seems to be a little bit smaller with 4114 resistens, and 44% germans or childrens of germans in this Hamburg. :) So I don´t wonder about your surname anymore. :o)
