The first rays glisten on the waves of the Weser river and the historical ships creak quietly in their moorings. The Schlachte Embankment is still deserted. But it will all be brought to life in a few hours when the first guests arrive for breakfast. In the evenings, lights from the bars and lanterns strung along the boats’ pontoons will illuminate the bustle on the banks of the Weser. The boats on the Weser set out on journeys near and far. Down the river, towards Überseestadt. Formerly a district of shipyards filled with vessels of all sizes, it is now becoming a hub for art and culture. The past is brought to life at the Speicher XI Harbour Museum, with stories of seafaring and restless spirits, new beginnings and hope. In the heat of the day, the sun reflects off the windows of the ornately decorated buildings. The figures on the façade of Bremen’s historical town hall symbolise times long gone. The stories captured in stone around the old market square remain vivid. The Bremen Town Musicians tell of adventurous journeys, and the giant Roland – the city’s very own ‘statue of liberty’ – watches over the people below with just a hint of a smile on his face. Stirring melodies played on an accordion float across the square. A street musician stands at the entrance to the delightful and quaint Böttcherstrasse shopping area, inviting visitors to take a trip back in time. Roland statue and town hall Schlachte Embankment Speicher XI Schlachte Embankment 4 Böttcherstrasse The Bremen Town Musicians The countdown has started: three … two … one … lift off! The heart beats faster. The dream of going into space draws closer. How do astronauts actually manage to sleep? A tour through the International Space Station brings science to life. Here at the laboratory in Bremen, engineers are working on cutting-edge technology for space travel. Leaving behind the far corners of space, we travel to the Earth’s core. Volcanoes spew magma, and a submersible explores the depths of the sea. Oceans, ice caps, rain forests and deserts – the various faces of our planet are all on show at Universum Bremen. Visit Bremen for hands-on science and worlds of discovery. Universum Bremen Kunsthalle Bremen Barely has the sun disappeared below the horizon and a new life emerges – full of excitement, glittering lights, music and pulsating rhythms. Daredevil cyclists fly round in a blur during the Six-Day Race. In the theatre, great emotions move the audience to tears, while the tunes of the great orchestra pull at the heartstrings. Bremen certainly lives up to its musical reputation. Drums beating out samba rhythms in February. Shakespeare in the Park. Spice sellers, golden angels at Christmastide and festively lit ships along the riverbank. Every day brings a new experience. Another adventure. More amazement. 6-day cycle race ISS – International Space Station Samba carnival Bremen Freimarkt 5 Bremen town hall and the Roland statue – World Heritage The town hall and the Roland statue on the market square are on the list of UNESCO World Heritage sites. The importance of the town hall is demonstrated by the distinctive style of its architecture, known as Weser Renaissance, which was prominent in north Germany in the late Renaissance period. Bremen’s Roland is one of the oldest and most impressive of the Roland statues, which were erected in Germany during the Middle Ages as symbols of liberty and trading rights. Together, the town hall and the Roland statue bear testimony to the history of the Free City Republic of Bremen, from the 9th century through to the present day.
