Guided city tour through Hanover's charming neighbourhood

Experience one of Hanover's liveliest and most charming neighbourhoods: the List!

Beautiful old architecture, exciting stories and a unique atmosphere await you on this guided tour. Together with our experienced tour guides, you will explore the picturesque streets and discover hidden treasures that characterise the List.

Your tour starts on the Lister Meile, the car-free shopping street lined with boutiques, cafés and restaurants.

Here you can experience the lively street life and learn more about the history of this special neighbourhood. The tour continues to the Eilenriede, Europe's largest urban forest. Let yourself be enchanted by the tranquillity and nature while you learn more about the flora and fauna of the forest, which is considered Hanover's green oasis.

But that's not all! The List is also an architectural jewel: magnificent old buildings from the Wilhelminian era adorn the streets and tell of the neighbourhood's eventful history. Find out how the architecture of the List is closely linked to the development of Hanover.

Finally, a sweet story should not be missing: Bahlsen, the well-known biscuit manufacturer, has its roots in the List. On the tour, you will learn exciting anecdotes about the origins of the company and how the term "biscuit" conquered the world.
