thumb|Demonstration by leftist groups, amongst others for the squatted Hafenstraße houses in neighbouring [[St. Pauli on 20 December 1986]] Sternschanze (, ) is a quarter in the centre of Hamburg (Germany) within the Altona borough. In 2014, the population was 7,776 on an area of 0.6 km2 with a density of 14,113 inhabitants per km2. After Reeperbahn, it is Hamburg's best known entertainment and nightlife district. It is also known as Schanzenviertel () and nicknamed Schanze ().
==History== The name of the quarter originates from a sconce (German: Schanze) shaped like a star that was built in 1682 in front of the Hamburg Wallring. From the 1930s to the 1970s the quarter was home to a large number of working-class people. In the 1970s, families and students started moving into the area. It nearly, but not fully, maps onto the entertainment district area of Schanzenviertel with its many bars and clubs, which is known as “die Schanze" by its inhabitants. In the local slang, residents here live "in the sconce" ("in der Schanze").
