Bremen’s historic centre attracts many visitors to its medieval charms and grand buildings and, for tours around the nearby North Sea coast, it is a good base. Nowadays, it is mostly industrial and residential, but its unique 1,200 years of history as an independent hanseatic state within Germany are well worth uncovering.
Twinned with the North Sea port city of Bremerhaven and making up Germany’s tiniest state, Bremen is the best starting point for exploring the northernmost sea coast of Germany and the windswept, hilly countryside. Touring the region by motorhome hire is popular, with campsites scattered around the smaller towns giving a convenient choice of overnight stops in peaceful surroundings.
RVRentalNetworkin partnership with Pure Motorhomes and McRent have some special offers and lots of advice on how to book your RV holiday in Bremen, Germany. Please note the small pop up campers are always in high demand as are the larger 4/6 berth mobile homes so please do book early.

Sleeping Beauty’s Castle Sababurg is a highlight. Forest Pool Campsite outside Hameln has a rural setting, while Campingplatz Barensee is found in Hanau.

Bremen to Salzburg:
the drive from Bremen, in the far north of Germany, to Salzburg, just over the Austrian border, takes eight hours on the A7 autobahn. An overnight stop at the Knaus Nuremberg Campsite allows time to explore the city.

Local attractions
Bremen’s Town Hall is UNESCO-listed for its 15th century magnificence and the medieval Cathedral of St Peter is set in the Old City’s picturesque market square. The incredible Art Nouveau Bottcherstrasse runs from the square to the banks of the river, and the tiny, twisting alleyways of the Schnoor quarter are lined with charming little stores and bars.
Beautiful Bremerhaven and its historic harbour is just a short drive away by campervan rental on the North Sea coast, with its Maritime Museum telling of the rich history of the region. Its outdoor section holds a number of historic vessels and a submarine, most of which can be boarded.
