Want to know more about the local sex scene in Hamburg?
The second largest city in Germany with a population of 1.8 million people, Hamburg is one of the country’s commercial and cultural centres. As well as maritime museums, arts venues and craft centres there is plenty of adult action to be had. Like the rest of Germany, Hamburg’s sex trade is fully legalised and offers a broad range of options.
In this Sex in Hamburg guide, we explore the local adult industry – from the Hamburg escorts scene and street prostitutes, to brothels, erotic massage parlours, swinging clubs and more.
Legal Prostitution in Hamburg
Prostitution in Hamburg is legal and there are an estimated 4000 sex workers in the city providing services from licensed venues as well as on the streets. The city also enjoys good coverage from escort agencies as well as independent call girls.
Licensed venues include several varieties of brothel. You can find standard brothels as well as laufhauses and FKK sex saunas.
Most of the erotic massage parlours also provide sexual services though the extent of these varies by venue. The city’s strip and gentleman’s clubs offer some close contact with private dances but not much more than titivation.
There are two main red-light districts in the city including one of Germany’s most famous prostitution zones; the Reeperbahn (see ‘Street Prostitution’, below). The city is also one of a few remaining places in Europe where window prostitution is still practiced.
Street prostitution is still in evidence in several areas but is becoming less common as more and more women take to the online classifieds and independent escort directories.
Prices for sex in Hamburg vary depending on where you are headed, even on the street the price can vary if you pick up in a touristy location.
Expect to pay around €30-€80 for sex with a street hooker, €30-€150 in a brothel and €100-€300 per hour with an escort.

Street Prostitutes
Hamburg’s street prostitution scene is just as well regulated and controlled as in many other German cities.
Working girls tend to use the two main red-light districts of the Reeperbahn and Sternschanze to tout their business.
Both are notorious prostitution zones; the Reeperbahn is a historic area, and along with nearby Herbertstrasse, attracts around a million visitors each year. Herbertstrasse still has window prostitutes like the De Wallen district of Amsterdam and is still cordoned off with tall metal barriers to deter minors and women from entering.
However, it is also believed that barriers are a way to prevent street prostitutes from competing with the window tenants.
In and around the Reeperbahn you can find women working for standard rates of €50 which includes full service with oral; most have a room nearby with many working inside the laufhauses but finding trade better on the streets.
In the east of the city, Süderstrasse also offers a good selection of women and many will offer a quickie for as little as €30.
