The Free Hanseatic City of Bremen, which in the past was the most important port in the country, is nestled along the river Weser. The historic center of Bremen (Altstadt) is really impressive, and has its most beautiful building in the town hall (Bremer Rathaus) richly decorated. This building along with the statue of Roland on the marketplace of Bremen was declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

The historic center of Bremen during the Christmas time appears in all its glory, the Christmas lights illuminate the streets with the shops festively decorated and the Christmas market – which consists of more than 170 wooden stalls – takes place in front of the Rathaus – the old town hall the city – surrounded by the scent of the aroma of freshly roasted almonds, gingerbread and mulled wine. The Christmas market in Bremen is one of the most spectacular of Germany.
