Hamburg Miniature Wunderland

by Kasper Fischer






Hamburg Miniature Wunderland is one of the worlds most impressive models in the world. It's actually also one of Germany's most visited tourist attractions. Unfortunately it's not so well know in the model world. Just the amount of scratch-build models they had to produce to make Knuffingen Airport is simply mind blowing. For all of you guys that don't know what I'm on about, I have included their official introduction video.


Following the construction of the airport has really got me excited to see it IRL so I have decided to visit. The second weekend in September I will go to Hamburg and see it with my own eyes and keeping in the right spirit, I bought train tickets. I will remember to bring the video camera and make a report for Modellours Workshop.




I'm really looking forward to see how the landing and take-off looks because I've seen how much effort they put into getting it right and I've see some poor attempts on other layouts. It's apparently very hard to get it to look natural.

Queen Mary II at Hamburg Miniature Wunderland.

It is higher than the Statue of Liberty in New York and longer than the Eiffel Tower in Paris: The cruise liner "Queen Mary II ". With a length of 345 meters and a proudheight of 72 feet, the luxury liner is a ship of superlatives. Equipped with fiveswimming pools, a golf course, a planetarium and a theater and a movie theater, offers a royal dream boat space for 2,600 passengers. Just the mere sight of the floating luxury hotel leaves you speechless! The Queen of the seven seas on 26 July and on 23 August 2007 in Hamburg harbor to anchor. An event that not only inspiresamateur captains!
