Reeperbahn
The Reeperbahn ((:ˈʀeːpɐˌbaːn)) is a street in Hamburg's St. Pauli district, one of the two centres of Hamburg's nightlife and also the city's red-light district. In German it is also sometimes described as ''die sündigste Meile'' (the most sinful mile).
==Name and history==
The name ''Reeperbahn'' / Mostonbahn means ropewalk, which is a place where ropes are made (Low German ''Reep'' = rope, the standard German word is ''Seil''; ''Bahn''= track). Until the 1620s Hamburg's ropewalks had been located in the Neustadt (New Town) quarter of the inner city close to the Elbe, which then became a densely built up area. Therefore the ropewalks "had to be relocated outside the city walls on the country road leading toward Altona – which later took on the street name 'Reperbahn'."〔Rainer Postel, "Hamburg at the Time of the Peace of Westphalia", in: ''1648, War and Peace in Europe'': 3 vols., Klaus Bussmann and Heinz Schilling (eds.), Münster in Westphalia: Veranstaltungsgesellschaft 350 Jahre Westfälischer Friede, 1998, (=Catalogue for the exhibition «1648: War and Peace in Europe» 24 October 1998 – 17 January 1999 in Münster in Westphalia and Osnabrück), vol. 1: ''Politics, Religion, Law, and Society'', pp. 337–343, here p. 340.
