From the middle ages Bremen become the large center of sea trade. "Buten und binnen, wagen und winnen" - "outside and inside to risk and win" is the slogan of Bremen.
The risk, the initiative and enterprise - at home and far from it - all these promoted blossoming. In the ninth century city was often named Northern Rome. |

Bremen is in fact an interesting and totally underrated place ! Schaffermahlzeit is a nice idea - I have never heared of if - BUT also Radio Bremen is well known for offering the base to start a career : all of germany's best showmasters started there |
