The object found on a construction site near Hamburg Central Station is not a bomb.
"It's not an ordnance find.
No further measures are necessary on the part of the fire brigade,” said a fire brigade spokesman for the German Press Agency on Sunday in Hamburg.
Hamburg – On Friday, an unusual object was discovered when probing for explosive ordnance on a construction site at the main train station.
There was a suspicion that it could be a bomb from the Second World War.
The railways are currently renovating two important bridges between the main station and Hamburg-Dammtor.
Thanks to the all-clear, regional and long-distance trains can run to and from Hamburg on Sunday as planned.
"Rail traffic continues as normal with us," said a railway spokeswoman on Sunday.
Only the street "Ferdinandstor" will remain completely closed until Monday, 11:00 a.m., since the metal scrap found now has to be removed.
