I was there with some friends of me because they know Phil Porter for his photgraphs. Make sure to check out his great pictures on philporter.de The Salon Obscura which Phil and his team had build is a real adventure and a little escape from the reality. Hidden in the heard of the city is this lovely handmade place full of obscurities, strange stories, a maze and lots of fun obstacles. Basicaly it's an exhibition of the unique photographies he did, but you have find your way through the hotel corridors to see all the great pictures! In my opinion it is a place you can't find enywhere else. Go there, getting lost and leave some money for postcards or posters to support there work. We had to wait a few minutes outsides because you can only go in with 4 people at a time. So bring some time and have a strange little journey.

This cathedral was incredible. I was there during an organ concert--a perfect environment for wonderful music. But at the back, they have a small museum that should not be missed. Lots of pieces from the Middle Ages and Reformation. They had a priest's vestments from the 12th century!

Located at the market square where you'll get to see the St Petri's Dom, the Town Musicians and Roland statue within the vicinity. Beautiful Town Hall @ Rathaus.
4. Kunsthalle Bremen
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 197 reviews
Kunsthalle Bremen Only a few minutes away from the market place is the Kunsthalle Bremen. Over the course of its 180 year history, it has developed into a museum with an international reputation. In 1823, 34 art-loving citizens established the Kunstverein Bremen [Bremen Arts Society] which still runs the institution as a private supporting organisation today, sponsored by regular subsidies from the Bremen municipality. The collection of paintings centres on French and German art of the nineteenth and twentieth century. Along with other European works of the fifteenth and nineteenth century, they fill the gallery on the upper floor. Special highlights are the many paintings by Paula Modersohn-Becker, Max Beckmann, Lovis Corinth, Max Liebermann, and Eugène Delacroix. The Department of Prints and Drawings holds about 200,000 sheets, including hand drawings, aquarelles, and printed graphs of the fifteenth to twentieth century, and is thus one of the major institutions of its kind in Europe. Sculptures, including ones by Auguste Rodin, are presented in the Large Gallery on the ground floor. On the top floor an exclusive artwork by John Cage is exhibited.

What a terrific place! Here, you can experience the change in painting: from the old masters through impressionism to the 'Klassische Moderne'. We were very impressed by the beauty of the building and the various halls

We did not expect the museum to be as big as it is. It is really easy to spend 4 hours here. Most of the information boards are German only, which can be difficult. Some of the information screens were not working properly. But nevertheless was this a really great experience with a lot of interesting facts and information in a beautiful setting for almost no money.

The old town hall, the Roland statue, churches, the Schnorr quarter and the Modersohn Becker museum, all things one should enjoy slowly while indulging yourself with chocolate from Bremen (Hachez or Feodora).
7. Deutsches Auswandererhaus

In Europe’s largest and most modern theme museum on the topic of emigration, the German Emigration Center, Bremerhaven (Deutsches Auswandererhaus), you can authentically follow the paths of 7 Million Europeans who left their homeland via the port of Bremerhaven, Germany in search for a better life in the New World and begin a personal search for your own ancestors using our state of the art research facilities.

This museum is a must-see for anyone interested in the history of European emigration in the 19th and 20th century. Although the entrance is a bit costly, it is definitely worth the visit. With your ticket, an emigrant's and an immigrant's profiles are attributed to you and you can follow them through their journey out of Europe or to Germany, through all the various stages. Dozens of real stories of emigration are very successfully inserted into the historical canvass of the various political, religious and economic factors that pushed people to emigrate. The interior of a shipcabin at various times is also very-well reproduced. Along the way, you can listen to many commentaries, descriptions, testimonies... The second part of the museum, on immigration to Germany, is also very interesting and similarly shows a dozen various trajectories of immigration from diverse cultural backgrounds, far from clichés.

The German submarine or U-Boot was a formidable weapon during the first half of the Second World War. When allied counter measures improved, the German navy developped the new types XXI & XXIII which were virtually undetectable at the end of the conflict. A fine example of the Type XXI can be visited here to get an impression how live was in a submarine
