Wandse is a river of Hamburg, Germany. The Wandse rises west of the village of Siek in Kreis Stormarn in Schleswig-Holstein and ends in the center of Hamburg in the Alster. Along the banks of the Wandse there were many water mills. The river passes through the settlements of Siek, Braak, Stapelfeld, and Hamburg itself. In Hamburg itself Wandsbek district takes it name from the river as it winds its way westwards via Eichtal Park to the Holzmuhl Pool, through the Eilbek canal and the heart of Hamburg to the Alster.[1]
