    Designations
    MPC designation (449) Hamburga
    Hamburga is classified as a C-type asteroid and is probably Named after Hamburg [3]
    composed of carbonaceous material. It is named for the city of (German city)
    Hamburg in Germany.[3] The name was announced in 1901 during a Alternative 1899 EU · 1947 OA
