Check out this webcam that shows a live panorama of the Elbe River from the Grauerort Fortress in Hamburg, Germany. Ship enthusiasts will appreciate the opportunity to observe the movement of various vessels on this important waterway of Central Europe.
From this camera you’ll see both cargo and passenger ships navigating the Elbe, which flows through Germany and passes through Hamburg before emptying into the North Sea. Hamburg, one of the largest cities in Germany, is located on the banks of this river.
The Grauerort Fortress, which lies next to Stade on the lower Elbe, has a rich history as part of Hamburg’s defense system, protecting it and the surrounding area for many centuries. Today it serves as a reminder of the region’s military heritage.
