Bremen Airport car rental - Travel Guide |
 |
Bremen is a city in northern Germany, population 600,000+.
The historic centre around the Alt market (old market), including the famous "Roland" statue. By Felix Gottwald.
Understand
History
Bremen was once a member of the medieval Hanseatic League and is still one of the most important cities in northern Germany. Together with the city of Bremerhaven on the North Sea it forms Germany's smallest province. Bremen has a more than 1200 years of history, and was most of the time an independent city state.
Geography
Bremen is a rather long and narrow city, lined along both sides of the river Weser. Along the north-west/south-east axis it stretches 37 km, but across only 10 km.
Get in
By air
Bremen airport (BRE) is located in the south-west of the town and offers flights to most bigger German cities and some European destinations. It’s easily accessible by public transport (tram line 6, about 20 minutes from the city centre) and by car. Major carriers are OLT and Lufthansa.
By train
Regular and frequent services connect Bremen with the rest of Germany. There are trains nearly every hour to Hamburg in the north and Osnabrück, Münster and the Ruhr Area in the South as well as to Hanover. In the west lie the cities Delmenhorst and Oldenburg and the Frisian Islands.
By car
Autobahn 1 runs to Hamburg in the north and Cologne in the south but do check the traffic information! The A27 goes north to Bremerhaven and south towards Hanover, Braunschweig, Berlin and other eastwards connections.
Get around
By Foot
Much of Bremen (or at least the part frequented by travelers) can be negotiated by foot - the best way to explore the old city and its surrounding districts.
By Bus/Tram
Bremen offers an intensive public transportation network with street-cars (trams) and buses. For public transportation timetables and ticket fares see (English).
By Taxi
Taxis are found nearly everywhere and every time but they have got their price (about 1, 25 EUR/km).
By Bike
You can hire bicycles at the railway station and several bike shops in Bremen. See http://www.adfc-bremen.de/ (German only).
See
Bremen's main attraction is the old city centre with the famous city hall (Rathaus). On the market place in front of it one of Bremen's most famous sights is the Roland-statue. Close by are the Bremen Town Musicians.
Do
Stroll around the city centre and visit the Schnoor-Viertel with its old medieval buildings. If interested in arts visit the Bremer Kunsthalle (museum of art) with one of north Germany's finest collections. If you like football, visit a match of the local team Werder Bremen in the stadium.
