Schenefeld

Situated between Hamburg’s western suburbs and the low, open terrain of Schleswig-Holstein, Schenefeld is a town whose character is shaped by its close relationship with the Hanseatic metropolis and the nearby Elbe corridor. The international European XFEL research facility has its main site here: its underground X-ray laser supports research in fields including chemistry, materials science and biology. Residential streets and the Stadtzentrum Schenefeld shopping complex form the town’s practical local centre, while its position beside Hamburg places it firmly within the wider metropolitan area.
