is the geographical link between Hamburg and Schleswig - Holstein. The Oststeinbeker citizen can reach Hamburg with all its possibilities in a very short time. The good location for the commuter, directly at the motor-way junction Hamburg-East and with that linked to the motor-ways to Luebeck or Berlin, makes this village an interesting locality for trade and industry.
In the year 1255 first documented, Oststeinbeck has grown into the modern community that it is today.
The Oststeinbeker Kulturring and the Laienspielgruppe have a diverse cultural programme on offer.
Many local visitors are drawn every year to the Maypole-festival.
