The old town holds the market square with the UNESCO-listed Town Hall and Roland.

Schnoor

  • history
  • couples
  • short walks

Bremen's official tourism site calls the Schnoor a maze of lanes lined with little 15th and 16th century houses, first mentioned in the 13th century. It says the quarter has about 111 small houses and is car-free, with galleries, cafés, restaurants and specialist shops. It is lovely to stay near, but check access for luggage and parking.

Wikipedia places the Viertel east of the old town on the border of the Ostertor and Steintor subdistricts and describes it for its cafés, restaurants and boutiques. Ostertorsteinweg is the main shopping street, with small shops rather than department stores.

Getting around Bremen

Bremen Airport is 3.5 km south of the city according to Wikipedia. Tram line 6 runs to the airport, and Wikipedia says it departs every 6 to 10 minutes and takes about 11 minutes to reach downtown. Wikipedia's tram article says the same line runs from the university via the Hauptbahnhof and Domsheide to the airport.

Wikipedia says trams and buses are operated by Bremer Straßenbahn AG (BSAG). Wikipedia says the tram network has eight lines, and that the Bremen S-Bahn, in operation since 2010, covers the wider Bremen/Oldenburg region. Wikivoyage says Bremen is the most bike-friendly of Germany's biggest cities and that trams run at night at weekends. Bremen's official tourism site mentions the BremenCARD discount card.

Living in Bremen for longer

For a longer stay, the Viertel is the neighbourhood with day-to-day cafés and small shops, while the area around the Hauptbahnhof is best for commuting by rail. Wikipedia says the University of Bremen enrols about 18,000 students, so the campus area sees steady term-time activity.

Wikivoyage mentions Wallanlagen, described as Germany's oldest public garden, which offers green space for walks. When comparing apartments, check the distance to a tram stop.

When to visit Bremen

Wikipedia classes Bremen's climate as moderate oceanic, with about 1,604 hours of sunshine a year, with record highs of 37.6°C and lows of −23.6°C.

Wikivoyage lists Easter markets in April, the Breminale music festival in June and the Freimarkt fair in October. Wikipedia says the Freimarkt runs for the last two weeks of October and has taken place since 1036, so it is worth booking early if you plan to visit then.

The city is made up of five boroughs, Mitte, Süd, Ost, West and Nord, according to the same article. Other north German cities with their own pages include Hamburg and Hanover.
