Tucked between residential streets in Eimsbüttel, Stephanusgarten is a relaxed, leafy spot that feels like a hidden backyard for the whole neighborhood. Originally started as a community project, it's now a beloved green retreat for locals of all ages.
With benches under trees, buzzing flower beds, and a nearby playground, it's a perfect place to slow down. I often meet friends here for a coffee or Aperol Spritz on warm afternoons — it´s low-key, friendly, and surprisingly quiet for being in the middle of the city.
Families love it too: kids can play safely while parents relax nearby. Whether you're out for a walk or just need a break in the shade, Stephanusgarten is one of those places that makes Eimsbüttel feel like home.
