Most visitors see the Town Hall, the Roland and the Schnoor in one morning and then wonder what Bremen has left. The Bremen City Guides answer that: Knipp and kale in cellar restaurants, one of Germany’s finest art collections, a sand beach on the Weser, Viertel bars that keep going until late and the moor of Worpswede within an hour. Each guide is a short list with an opinion, giving the reason to go, what to order and one practical tip for every place, and it opens in your browser as soon as you pay.

Three places from the guides
Markthalle Acht
Domshof, behind the cathedral
Around twenty counters under one roof in a former bank: pho, Korean fried chicken, jollof, tapas and a Bremen craft beer bar. Order wherever you like and sit anywhere, which ends any group debate about lunch. From the food guide.
Bleikeller
Am Dom 1, by the cathedral
Under the cathedral, the dry air of a vault has kept eight bodies from the 1600s and 1700s in open coffins, among them a Swedish officer and an English countess. Ten odd minutes you will remember longer than most museums. From the things to do guide.
Worpsweder Torfschifffahrt
Hammehafen, west of Worpswede
Replicas of the brown-sailed barges that once carried peat to Bremen drift up the slow Hamme for about ninety minutes, while the skipper tells the story of the peat cutters. From the day trips guide.
Play the trail, then follow the guide
World City Trail’s Bremen scavenger hunt, escape game and audio tour lead you through the old town. Afterwards the guides take over: Knipp at a brewpub behind the market square, a slow evening on the river beach, a train to the harbour museums of Bremerhaven or a free park when the clouds roll in.
