    This Evangelical church located in the market square of Bremen is just amazing. The original structure dates from the VIII Century. The oldest parts of the original building date from the XI century. Take your time to visit one of Bremen's jewels. It has been protected since 1973.

    Hanza Bremen, a beautiful German city on the River Vezer, deserves to visit it because it reflects a spirit that will make you fall in love with it. Tradition, culture and lifestyle are special and so carefully preserved and simply attract you to explore it. Beautiful streets, parks, historic buildings are at every step. Be sure to try local traditional dishes and beers. You will enjoy the time you spent in this beautiful city.

    Very big old gothic church with tall towers. The cathedral is dark in colors and has a bit dark atmosphere inside it as well. That's why I didn't feel comfortable there. From the right to the cathedral entrance there is a very interesting Bible garden with plants mentioned in the Bible. Just near the entrance there is an equestrian statue of Bismarck.

    Bremen Cathedral of St. Peter is the main Protestant church in the city, located at the Market Square. Its construction began in the XI century and lasted more than 3 centuries.

    It’s a very big and beautiful church. They don’t ask for anything in the entrance (like covid tests) It’s such a majestic building from the outside, and if you go to Bremen not only it’s a must see but you will most likely find it, since it’s close to the city center and the town hall and other buildings are also there.

    The cathedral belongs to the Bremian Evangelical Church, a member of the Protestant umbrella organization named Evangelical Church in Germany. It is the previous cathedral of the former Prince-Archbishopric of Bremen. Since 1973, it is protected by the monument protection act.

    This cathedral from the outside is splendid and a very grandiose work of art. Inside you can also visit, but I would say it is similar to other cathedrals and its beauty is on the outside.

    What ominous sight at night !!! I walk around the building at night, but even in the dark it was impressive! I had never been to Bremen before and was true my impressed by the quality and scale of the architecture in the old part of town. The pictures do not do it justice, it is larger than it looks. It makes for another interesting experience when visiting the center of Bremen.

    Look at the sculptures at the entrance; the bishops, kings and lions. they all mysteriously look at Roland. Inside, the beauty is beyond imagination

  • 5/5 jeremy n. 3 years ago on Google
    The beautiful St. Petri Cathedral in Bremen is a Romanesque church building made of sandstone and brick, which was built from the 11th century on the foundations of older predecessor buildings and has been rebuilt in the Gothic style since the 13th century. Side chapels were added in the 14th century. In 1502, the redesign into a late Gothic hall church began, but it did not get beyond a new north aisle when the Reformation stopped further extensions. In the late 19th century, the building, which was well-kept inside but looked shabby on the outside, was extensively renovated, one of the two towers of which collapsed. The design was mainly based on the existing and old representations, but some innovations were also designed, such as the neo-Romanesque crossing tower. Today the church belongs to the Evangelical Lutheran cathedral parish of St. Petri. It has been a listed building since 1973. A must've seen in Bremen.

    Worth visit due to acoustic exposure! Often concert venues makes occasions to experience magnificent sound inside. Music organs makes this place more Philharmonic than a church or cathedral. Usually paid entry. Toilet inside.

  • 5/5 Thuha N. 10 months ago on Google • 210 reviews
    One of the oldest churches in Bremen, it was built in 11th century and lasted for several centuries. The cathedral is an impressive example of Gothic and Romanesque architecture styles. It served as a seat of the Bremen Archdiocese and was also the coronation site of several kings of the Sweden in 17th century.

    Was absolutely stunning! There was also a free museum which was lovely, however almost all of the explanations were only in German, which makes sense, but just meant that we went quite quickly through the museum. No complaints here! Was lovely would recommend coming!

    Historical and beautiful. Mass was in German, and though I am not fluent, I could feel the message. St. Petri Dom is a sight to be seen. The Priest spoke with a way that invoked me to reflect upon my family and my life. It is truly a meaningful, beautiful, and historical place to worship.

  • 4/5 Shahid Nadeem A. 1 year ago on Google
    Its a big and very nice Church, They do not ask anything for entrance but one thing is not organised well and that it the Tower (DOM). It seems attractive to everyone when you enter in the Church and everyone asking for Church Dom but believe me I think it will be organised and there must be a lift inside. That was not well organised and even someone comming down and going up with same stairs and you stuck sometime

  • 5/5 Siobhán W. 10 months ago on Google • 38 reviews
    Beautiful and full of history! I enjoyed examining all the art inside, stone statues, and the doors of the Dom. I think it’s a must-see sight in Bremen, although it is very hard to miss. I would recommend attending any event they have there, such as the Bremer Orgelsommer! Even walking around inside and sitting on a pew is very peaceful.

  • 5/5 Rain J. 10 months ago on Google
    A majestic cathedral in Bremen's compact, yet very charming and diverse old town.

  • 1/5 Peng Qiao (. 1 year ago on Google
    The building is very beautiful but staff work here is really rude. The dom should open till 4:45pm and we arrived at 4pm and the door is open. However, a staff yelled at us to get out of there because the dom is closed already. That is totally no sense to be so rude on visitors in a church and I don’t think we did anything wrong. Shame on them

  • 5/5 monica p. 2 years ago on Google
    Such an impressive building! Open from 10 on, 11.30 on Sundays, so we didn't manage to enter...

  • 4/5 Jessica D. 1 year ago on Google
    Free entrance for church and museum! Church is wonderful. Spent a little more than 2 hours there and had the chance to stay for the noon mass. Museum is well made, interesting and home to multiple ancestral fabrics and clothing pieces (first time seeing authentic clothes from bishops). I would have appreciated more texts in English in the museum.

    Set between the Rathaus and the State Parliament, the impressive cathedral of Saint Peter completes the ensemble of historical buildings on Bremen's old market square. Its two towers, one of which is open to visitors, are visible from afar and dominate the city skyline. Unfortunately, due to the opening hours, we were not able to visit the interior.

    (Translated by Google) Ideal for visiting in connection with the lead cellar. (Next door) the cathedral is not only worth a visit as a tourist. Even as a Bremer, you should stop there for a while now and then. Belongs to the city with the Roland, the Weser Stadium and the town musicians. (Original) Ideal in Verbindung mit dem Bleikeller besuchbar.( nebenan) der Dom ist nicht nur als Touri einen Besuch wert. Auch als Bremer sollte man ab und zu mal kurz dort verweilen.
