The many steps of St Michel













Our city tour was a great way to see the sights of Hamburg. With our daily pass, we were able to hop on and off our bus at any stop. The buses came every 15 minutes. 

We got off at St Michel's church. (pictured here) The church stands 132 metres high. You can get a lift to the top, or walk up the stairs. We decided to walk up the 452 steps! They were steep, and the boys got a bit frightened at some parts. We were lucky we didn't get 1/2 way up on the hour. Each hour the bells chime, and they are loud!! The view from the top was terrific. You can get great views of the harbour and the layout of Hamburg. We decided to get the lift down to the bottom of the church
