Boroughs And Quarters Of Hamburg
The city of Hamburg in Germany is made up of seven boroughs (German: ''Bezirke'', also known as ''districts'' or ''administrative districts'') and subdivided into 104 quarters (German: ''Stadtteile''). Most of the quarters were former independent settlements. The areal organisation is regulated by the constitution of Hamburg and several laws. The subdivision into boroughs and quarters was last modified in March 2008.
