A cappuccino and a piece of cake in the afternoon will revive your feet tired from shopping.

The City Center – Hanover’s Focal Point

The central square of Hanover’s city center has been known as Kröpcke since the 1870s, named after the existing café. It is a popular meeting point where Bahnhofstraße, Georgstraße, Karmarschstraße, and Rathenaustraße intersect and is part of an extensive pedestrian zone.

Start with a visit to one of the most popular and longest shopping streets: Bahnhofstraße. It is a pedestrian zone laid out on two levels. In the so-called lower level, the Niki-de-Saint-Phalle-Promenade stretches for a length of 650m.

Bahnhofstraße ends at the station forecourt, where you can admire the equestrian statue of Ernst August. The monument is a popular meeting point for locals, and people meet ‘under the tail’.

Georgstraße, branching off from Kröpcke, is an elegant avenue located between the Opera and Aegidientorplatz. Luxurious jewelry, exquisite boutiques, and shops in Hanover’s noble promenade await you. The one-kilometer-long boulevard offers a rich selection of restaurants, cafés, and bistros for relaxation.

Parallel to Bahnhofstraße is Luisenstraße and thus also the Kröpcke Passage. The small passage invites exclusive shoppers into the light-flooded and warm premises.
