Bremen town musicians

Bremen town musicians

Shairee Malhotra
Bremen is an old Hanseatic town, one of the main north German cities. It was badly damaged during the last World War. In 1949 Bremen was declared an autonomous “Land,” and since then it has had a reputation for being the most politically radical part of the country, having elected the first Green MPs in 1979. Despite the vast damage from the war the town still retains a nice big harbor atmosphere and has a few sights worth visiting, not the least of which is Bremen's beautiful Rathaus.

A street in Schnoorviertel

Louchnikova Tatiana
The main sights are situated in the Altstadt, on the Weser’s northeast bank. Here the Renaissance town hall and the late Gothic cathedral (don’t miss the mummies in the basement) are worth visiting. Nearby is the life-sized bronze statue of the city’s most famous residents - the Bremen town musicians (a rooster cat dog and donkey) heroes of a Grimm Brothers’ story.

One of the nicest areas to spend some time is the area in and around the Bötcherstrasse and Schnoorviertel areas. Here you will find many small shops, galleries and cafes.

Off the south side of the Markplatz, the Böttcherstrasse was transformed in the 1920s by the Bremen coffee Magnate Ludwig Roselius, who commissioned local artists to convert the alleyway into a Gothic-cum-Art Nouveau fantasy. The street, today a 110-metre pedestrian walkway area, was at one time inhabited by the town's coopers and barrel makers.

The traditional red-brick architecture and more modern expressionist constructions, for which Böttcherstrasse has become well known, offer contrasting yet interesting sights. The street was transformed between 1923 and 1931. The more..

Tucked away between the Dom and the river is a small, extraordinarily well-peserved area of medieval fishing houses known as the “Schnoorviertel”. Rather like a thread of beads - thus its Low German name of “'Schnoor”' - little gabled houses from the 15th and 16th centuries huddle together in Bremen's oldest quarter. Though prettified, it has managed to avoid soulless gentrification.

Artisans, goldsmiths and gallery-owners now occupy many houses along the crooked lanes and tiny backyards, while restaurants and cafés cater for even the most discerning palate. more..

Cathedral (Dom St. Peter)
Edit This

The imposing early Gothic Cathedral of St Petri, on a small rise beyond the Rathaus, is a must see. Its brooding interior ranging from Romanesque to late Gothic. You can climb one of the twin towers (Easter – October: Mon till Fri 10am – 5pm, Sat 10am – 1pm, Sun 2pm – 5pm). In the crypt are some fine works of art, notably an 11th century “Enthroned Christ” and a magnificent 13th century font. Off the southeast corner is the Bleikeller (Openings like the towers), where lead for the roofing was stored: a macabre attraction is provided by the corpses more..

Market Square and Roland
Edit This

Bremen's cosy "Reception Room" is a relatively small place dominated by the Rathaus. For centuries, the Market Square has been at the heart of the Hanseatic City, rating with the most elegant in Germany. The square is placed around the Hanseatic Cross, commemorating those Hanseatic members that took part in the War of Liberation.

When turning round while standing in its centre, the stone statue of Knight Roland, Bremen's most famous, is the first sight of landmark that catches your eye. The Roland was erected in 1404 as a symbol of civic rights and more..

Rathaus
Edit This

On the Market Square is the historic Rathaus displaying an unrivalled Renaissance-style façade. It is called to be one of the most splendid buildings in northern Germany. You can only visit the interiors as part of a guided tour (Mon – Sat 11am, noon, 3pm and 4pm, Sun 11am and noon, entrance fee 5,- DM), but it is worth it to see the extrames of Bremen’s civic pride: rooms awash with gilded wallpaper and ornate carving etc.
