The harbor of the Hanseatic city of Buxtehude is the navigable endpoint of the Elbe tributary Este. Mills and factories settled there. The harbor is the heart of the Hanseatic city of Buxtehude. Until the 19th century, it offered an important connection for long-distance transport via the Lower Elbe. Because of the harbor, industry settled in the city of Buxtehude. The railway, which went into operation in 1881, and then later the road connection, displaced shipping in Buxtehude. Around 1980, part of the harbor was built over with the harbor bridge. Nevertheless, architectural monuments were preserved here, such as the customs office built in 1870 at Moortorstraße 2, which is very beautiful to look at 👍🏼. The water of the Este once powered the Flethmühle in the city center of Buxtehude. Below it, the Fleth was tide-dependent and navigable until 1972 for barges up to 100 tons.
