Trinkhalle
The Trinkhalle stands in the southwest corner of Hamburg's Stadtpark, near the crossing of Südring and Otto-Wels-Straße. Fritz Schumacher designed this small round pavilion, built between 1914 and 1915. An open hall of columns carries two short side wings. The whole structure lines up with a long lawn that runs towards the sculpture of Diana with her dogs.
The pavilion began as a place for curative water treatments. It offered a choice of fifty healing waters to residents who could not afford a stay at a spa. The park around it provided walking paths for those visitors. Later the hall became a meeting place for seniors, and since spring 2013 it has run as a café.
The café buys from local Hamburg suppliers: coffee from the Waterkant roasting house, soup from Souperia, cakes from the Pritsch Bakery. The spreads come from Brandgut or Kummerfelder Heimatsenf. Under the columns, that long lawn still runs towards Diana and her dogs.
