But hopefully the classics won't be the only impressions you take away from a visit, because this small federal state on the Weser has much more to offer, for example:

 

Maritime charm with strolling miles, harbors, beaches, the walkable Weser weir with lock, shipping, and shipbuilding

Art & culture that need not fear comparison

Extensive green spaces such as the Rhododendron Park and botanica with around 2,500 wild and cultivated species from all over the world

Culinary specialties - hearty or sweet - and locally brewed beer

Ischa Freimaak – Bremer Freimarkt, Germany's oldest folk festival, and Bremen Carnival

Aerospace companies like Airbus, OHB System AG, and ZARM with its unique drop tower

After Borgward and Hanomag-Henschel: the largest Mercedes-Benz plant in the Daimler group

Bremen is one of Europe’s top cycling cities, and you can comfortably explore the city on two wheels. Alternatively, there is a well-functioning public transport network and car-sharing options.

You're staying in Bremen for a while and have already seen everything? How about a day trip to Bremerhaven or Harriersand, Germany’s longest river island near Brake? Or visit the artists' colonies in Fischerhude or Worpswede? Cycle through Cuxhaven’s seaside resorts? Take a boat to Heligoland, Germany’s only high-seas island?
