Homesick for St. Pauli (German: Heimweh nach St. Pauli) is a 1963 German drama film directed by Werner Jacobs and starring Freddy Quinn, Josef Albrecht and Ullrich Haupt.[2] It was based on a musical by Lotar Olias and Gustav Kampendonk
The film was one of the many foreign films that Jayne Mansfield made in the 1960s, after becoming a star in the late 1950s in films like: The Girl Can't Help It (1956) and Will Success Spoil Rock Hunter? (1957).
The film's sets were designed by the art directors Albrecht Becker and Herbert Kirchhoff. Location shooting took place in New York and Germany. The film was shot in Hamburg in mid-1963.[3]
