Eppendorf in Hamburg: University Hospital Quarter and the Alster's Upper Reaches
Eppendorf is one of Hamburg's most recognisable residential districts, located in the Bezirk Nord. The Universitaetsklinikum Hamburg-Eppendorf, commonly known as the UKE, is one of Europe's largest university hospitals and the district's defining institution. The Eppendorf brand name is also known globally in laboratory science: the Eppendorf company, founded here in 1945, produces pipettes and centrifuges used in labs worldwide. About 24,800 people live in the district. The upper Alster river passes through, and the Eppendorfer Moor nature reserve preserves a patch of fen landscape within the city. Residential streets are lined with Jugendstil and Gruenderzeit townhouses.
Winterhude borders to the east. Hoheluft-Ost lies to the south. Hamburg's Innenstadt is reachable within 15 minutes by U-Bahn from the Kellinghusenstrasse station.
