Holstenstraße is a railway station in Hamburg, Germany, located in the quarter of Altona-Nord in the borough of Altona. It is served by the rapid transit trains of the Hamburg S-Bahn. The station is managed by DB Station&Service.
The station is situated directly beside the Neue Flora musical theatre and close to the Holsten Brewery. It was the focus of significant media attention in 2005 after people at the station's bus stop allegedly eavesdropped three men planning a terrorist attack, resulting in a large-scale police investigation.
