Travel Guide

Travel to Bremen BookTrail style with the Bremen Musicians themselves!

The Bremen Town Musicians are without doubt the pride and joy of the city. A bronze statue created by Gerhard Marcks in 1953 stands in the heart of city as a tribute to the four animals musicians. Tourists come from all over to see the animals standing on top of each other – it’s a must see when you are here.

The statue is only two metres tall and can be found on the left, western side of the town hall. If you follow Schoppensteel street from the Church of Our Lady towards Domshof, you can’t miss it!
