The webcam broadcasts online schlachte embankment in Bremen, Germany. The historic Schlahte embankment was built in the 13th century to strengthen the banks of the Weser River and protect against waves and ice. Since the 15th century, the port of Bremen has been located here. Today, Shlyahte is a place of the city promenade with numerous restaurants and stands. It hosts annual regattas, sea weeks and Christmas markets, and fireworks. You can take a ride on the river tram or visit the Flea Market.
The embankment of Schlachte, which stretches for 660 meters along the eastern bank of the River Weser, can be called one of the main walking areas of Bremen. Here they like to spend their free time as locals and tourists. Especially often you can meet walking couples, because what could be more romantic dinner in a German restaurant overlooking the passing of the ship?
In the 13th and 19th centuries, this very place was the port where the ships moored. In 1985, the city council decided to organize a walking zone here. The improvement continued until February 2008. Today we can enjoy the result of the work of local craftsmen who have invested in the embankment a part of their soul.
To marvel here really is something, because Schlachte consists of two levels. The upper part of it is located at a 4-meter height above the river, that is about the same level as the city blocks. The lower one, called Weserpromenade, stretched along Weser itself. From the upper level it is convenient to observe the lower, and from the bottom - the river with passing on it pleasure boats.
On the opposite bank will be seen a monumental brick six-storey building - Bachmann House, between 1913 and 2006 owned by the logistics company Bachmann. Today, the creation of Richard Bilenberg and Joseph Moser is under state protection. Look out for the church of St. Martin with a powerful tower, built in the 12th and 14th centuries. It is a vivid example of the late German brick Gothic. The upper part of the embankment is struck by the abundance of all sorts of green spaces.
Schlacht has several dozen restaurants and cafes, where you can order a mug of beer with salted pretzels or an apple strudel with a cup of fragrant cappuccino. Well, if you come to Bremen on Christmas Eve, we recommend to taste the typical German Christmas cookie speculation or cupcake stolen. On the eve of this holiday, concerts and fairs are held on the Schlachte waterfront. At this time, local traders offer passers-by all sorts of handmade products and mulled wine of their own making. Also, flea markets are also held every Saturday from 8 a.m. to 2 p.m. and live music is played on weekends.
