Guided Story

Feel the breeze coming off the Weser? Imagine the ships passing by here in the 19th century, loaded with goods from around the world. This bridge isn't just a connection between the Old Town and the New Town, it's a link between past and present. Look to your left, that's the Weserburg, Bremen's museum of modern art. Quite the contrast to the old trade routes this bridge once supported. Behind you, down the road, is the lively Schlachte, where you can still sense the city's maritime spirit. Every step on this bridge is like a journey through time, with the city unfolding all around you.
