The Archäologisches Museum Hamburg (Hamburg Archaeological Museum; formerly the Helms-Museum) is an archaeological museum in the Harburg borough of Hamburg, Germany. It houses the archaeological finds of the city of Hamburg and the neighbouring counties to the south of the city. It focuses on northern German prehistory and early history as well as the history of the former city of Harburg. The museum is also home to the cultural heritage landmarks commission of the city of Hamburg and the adjacent district of Harburg in Lower-Saxony and thus supervises all archaeological undertakings in the region. The museum has two major exhibition spaces. The future City Museum of Harburg, temporary exhibitions, the library, offices and small storage facilities are located in the main building, which is shared with the Harburger Theater at Museumsplatz 2. The permanent archaeological exhibition and education facilities are located nearby, at Harburger Rathausplatz 5. In addition, the Museum maintains as external branches the exhibition area of the 12th-century Bischofsturm (Bishop's Tower) in Hamburg's old town, the Fischbeker Heide archaeological trail at Neugraben-Fischbek and the 8th-century hillfort of Hollenstedt.

Friedrich-Ebert-Gymnasium
Friedrich-Ebert-Gymnasium

The Friedrich-Ebert-Gymnasium (FEG) is a German high school (see "Gymnasium") in the Harburg borough of Hamburg, Germany, that is known to exist since 1628. The school is famous for its Friedrich-Ebert-Halle, where the Beatles had their first professional recording session, backing Tony Sheridan in 1961. In 1968 it was renamed from "Gymnasium für Jungen Harburg" (engl.: "Gymnasium for Boys in Harburg") after Friedrich Ebert, first president of the Weimar Republic. The school offers three main sectors: the humanistic (with Latin since grade 5, "L" classes), the musical ("M" classes providing own class orchestras or ensembles), and the "MINT" (abbreviation of "Mathematik, Informatik, Naturwissenschaften, Technik" - “Maths, Information Technology, Science, Technics”, former "NaWi" for "Naturwissenschaften", i.e. Natural Sciences) sector (formerly "neusprachlicher Zweig" new languages sector with "E" classes, "E" meaning "English"). The school also provides exchanges with Great Britain, Mexico, Poland, and the United States, the latter of which being part of GAPP. The American partner school of the FEG is Kirkwood High School, St Louis. In grade 8, pupils have to take courses in either Greek, Spanish, DSP ("Darstellendes Spiel" - roughly “dramatic play”), or NIP ("Naturwissenschaftlich-informatisches Praktikum" - “scientific IT-based practicum”). Due to lack of interest in it, the humanistic sector is planned to be discontinued as of 2012. Even so, Latin will still be offered for grade 6 and Greek for grade 8 (see above). The school has been undergoing a renovation since 2009, which is overrunning its time. Both issues are part of the aimed-at new modern school image "Ebert 2012". School year 2009/2010 was the first grade 11 that had to take courses by the new profile system ("Profiloberstufe"). The same year Abitur after twelve years was introduced, leading to a double examination ("Doppeljahrgang"). Currently there are five profiles offered: Sprachliches Profil (linguistic profile) with either French or Spanish being profile-providing Musikalisches Profil (musical profile) with Music profile-providing Geschichtsprofil (history profile) with History profile-providing Geo-Bio-Profil (geographic-biologic profile) with Geography and Biology profile-providing Naturwissenschaftliches Profil (scientific profile) with either Biology, Physics or Chemistry profile-providing
