The House of Photography, which opened in 2005 in the southern building of the Deichtorhallen, has provided Hamburg with a venue exclusively dedicated to exhibiting photography of international significance.
The House of Photography shows international temporary exhibitions of photography—from historical positions of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries to young contemporary photographers. The House of Photography has been built up around the F. C. Gundlach Collection—an internationally renowned collection in the fields of fashion and fine-art photography.
