List
Spend a day in this centrally located suburb of Hannover to admire graceful architecture, indulge in some shopping, explore lush parkland and sample German lager.

Located just to the northeast of Hannover’s city center, List offers a picturesque and pleasant environment in which to get to know the city better.

Begin your discovery of List with a short subway ride to Lister Platz (List Square), to experience life in the heart of the suburb. Like the spokes of a wheel, streets radiate off in all directions from the square. As you explore, you’ll notice the bay windows of the terra cotta-roofed buildings of List are a recurring theme. Browse the many shops of the area or have something to eat at one of the many bakeries and cafés.

Walk down pedestrianized Lister Meile as it heads away from Lister Platz. Here you will see a continuation of the beautiful old buildings of the area and can further indulge in a bit of retail therapy. Stop in the small square that is home to the unusual Pferdebrunnen Fountain. The fountain is a modern piece of art consisting of five metal heads representing horses.

Time your visit to catch one of Hannover’s biggest festivals, the Lister Meile Fest. Live music fills the streets and culinary treats and art add to the fun. A dedicated area for children means the whole family can enjoy the lively atmosphere of this popular festival.

Discover the beauty of List’s nature with a gentle stroll along the pathways that meander through the massive parkland of Eilenriede. It’s part of a network that includes 1,600 acres (640 hectares) of parkland, so you don’t need to venture far from List to experience tranquil leafy glades. Also known locally as the “Grüne Lunge,” meaning “green lung,” Eilenriede really does add a breath of fresh air to the busy city streets.

Rest your legs after your walk with a visit to the Lister Turm Biergarten. This authentic-style beer garden has a wide range of lagers to quench your thirst while you take in the view of the Lister Turm. The Lister Turm is a building dating from 1895 with many decorative features. The large tower is a copy of the original one dating from the 14th century. Say “prost” as you clink your beer glasses together and look back on a great day in List.
