The plague reached Hamburg in 1350, likely through trade routes. Merchants and ships that had traveled from infected areas, particularly from the Mediterranean and southern Europe, brought the disease with them. The crowded and unsanitary conditions in the city facilitated its rapid spread among the population. This outbreak was part of the larger wave of the Black Death that swept across Europe during the 14th century.
