Gerhart-Hauptmann-Platz is a central square in Altstadt quarter, Hamburg, Germany. The former Pferdemarkt is located at the junction of the streets of Mönckebergstraße, Spitalerstraße and Alstertor. The southern part of the square was renamed into Ida-Ehre-Platz on 9 July 2000, in honour of the actress and intendant of Hamburger Kammerspiele.
The square was first mentioned in 1260 as Pferdemarkt. Horse trading was later relocated to Neuer Pferdemarkt square in St. Pauli after construction of Hamburg city walls. The square was renamed after dramatist and novelist Gerhart Hauptmann after his death in 1946. In the 1970s the square was redesigned with a wavy surface, which was partly flattened in the 2000s, because the square should be used regularly for a Christmas market and other events.
