[GER] Die Hamburger U-Bahn ist das Hoch- und Untergrundbahn-System der Freien und Hansestadt Hamburg sowie einiger angrenzender Gemeinden in Schleswig-Holstein. Das System wurde 1912 in Betrieb genommen und ist die zweitälteste U-Bahn Deutschlands. Zunächst wurde der Ring (Schlump – St. Pauli – Rathaus – Hauptbahnhof Süd – Berliner Tor – Barmbek – Kellinghusenstraße – Schlump) in Betrieb genommen. Er führt zu einem großen Teil über Eisenviadukte und über ausgemauerte Bogenkonstruktionen. An der Mundsburg führt eine solche Bogenkonstruktion entlang der Ulmenau. Verschiedene Sandsteinreliefs sind hier zu Verzierung in die Tragkonstruktion eingelassen. Das hier gezeigte Relief zieren zwei Vögel, die Ihren Körper voneinander abwenden, aber ihren Kopf einander zuwenden und gemeinsam eine Traube anschauen.

[ENG] The Hamburg subway is the elevated and underground railway system of the Free and Hanseatic City of Hamburg as well as several neighbouring communities in Schleswig-Holstein. The system was put into operation in 1912 and is the second oldest underground railway in Germany. The Ring (Schlump - St. Pauli - Rathaus - Hauptbahnhof Süd - Berliner Tor - Barmbek - Kellinghusenstraße - Schlump) was first put into operation. It leads to a large part over iron viaducts and over bricked arch constructions. At the Mundsburg such an arch construction leads along the Ulmenau. Various sandstone reliefs are embedded in the supporting structure to decorate it. The relief shown here is adorned by two birds that turn their bodies away from each other, but turn their heads towards each other and look at a grape together.
