Christmas market - something different in Bremen!
- Written by Portal Editor
Once again, various dates take us up to the north, this time we go as far as the Hanseatic cities of Bremen and Hamburg.
When we were able to arrange a short visit to Bremen city center with our already known "city guide" Laura, the short trip to the Bremen Christmas market was quickly arranged over the phone, which then also included the somewhat unusual concept of a "Bremen Christmas market". in connection with the battle spell. But more on that in a moment.
Christmas market at the Bremen market square, Bremer Roland and the Domshof
We park the car just outside the historic old town and cross the Weser via Langemarckstraße, then choose the route through the city centre to Rathausplatz. Immediately the unusual “attention” is back: in Bremen people pay more attention to fast cyclists than to drivers. Cyclists are clearly the greater accident potential here.
This scent alone lingers in the nose for a long time
Originally the Christmas market was only located on the market square between the town hall, cathedral and Bremen Roland. Over time, the area was expanded to include the Domshof, the areas around the Liebfrauenkirche (Bremen) and the immediately adjacent part of Obernstraße, the Hanseatenhof, Ansgarikirchhof and, in 2004, the medieval-looking Schlachtezauber. Opening hours are daily from 10 a.m. to 8:30 p.m., Sundays from 11 a.m. The dismantling takes place on the evening of December 23rd, so visitors on December 24th are often surprised by the empty market square, which then lacks the Christmas atmosphere. The tour takes us around the town hall, a treat here, a taste there and wonderful scents everywhere that tempt you to snack. We are fascinated by the fried apple quarters, which are sprinkled with cinnamon and served with vanilla sauce in a large ice cream cone. This scent alone lingers in the nose for a long time.
Meet the Bremen Town Musicians in person
Anyone who would like to meet the Bremen Town Musicians in person has the opportunity to do so every day at 5 p.m. Then the fairy tale will be performed by actors from Theater Interaktiwo at the Hanseatenhof. Every afternoon, at a fixed time, small surprises are handed out, with members of the Bremen citizenship asked to help. Participants often include musicians and actors from the Ernst Waldau Theater.
At first it's a bit surprising whether the connection between the maritime medieval market and the Christmas market can fit. The increasing flow of visitors towards the afternoon clearly spoke in favor of the concept. Some visitors had already snuggled up in warm blankets and waited for things to come. At dusk the battle is bathed in a fairytale blue light.
