Records about Max Brauer from the book Animals are my life, by Lorenz Hagenbeck
In May, the then Mayor of Hamburg, Bürgermeister Brauer, and the British Military Governor Berry opened an exhibition which we had put up in the animal park to tell the story of those hundred years. The press wrote that this was more than a mere matter of private business . Hagenbeck's had become part of the cultural history of Hamburg. A central exhibit was a natural-size reconstruction of the initial unit of our enterprise: the St. Pauli seal pool of 1848. There was also a big sequence recalling the 'folk' shows of peoples from all parts of the world. Large wall-paintings told the story of our house animal catching, early animal transport, the founding of Stellingen and the conflagration of 1943 all this the work of our good friend the famous animal painter, Wilhelm Eigener.

The book Animals are my life, written 1956 by Lorenz Hagenbeck


In 1960, Brauer was given the honorary citizen award of Hamburg. The street Max-Brauer-Allee in the Altona borough is named after him.
