Schnoor
Like beads on a string. That's the image the shops in Bremen's oldest district bring to mind. This is where welcoming cafés, art galleries and independent boutiques all rub shoulders with each other. A special feature of this picturesque district is that you can even go shopping on a Sunday, because all the shops are open from 11am to 4pm.

Shopping
Full of unique and coveted goods, you can’t escape Bremen’s mix of stores and boutiques. The 16th-century Schnoor quarter is unbeatable, with fishermen and artisan cottages bursting with galleries, goldsmiths and eccentric retail establishments. Keep an eye open for aromatic teas, jewelry and hand-painted crockery. Those with a penchant for fine spirits will find their holy grail around the main market square: Ratskeller stocks some of Germany’s best wines. Just down the road, beautifully hand-crafted toys line the shelves of Martinshof. Sögestrasse comes up trumps with the swish but traditional fashion houses, Stiesing and Roland-Center. All things classy and pricey are located around Fedelhören, where delicatessens, shops and antique stores rub shoulders with designer boutiques. On a rainy day, head for Domshof Passage. This glass-covered shopping mile is packed with exclusive little shops and boutiques to tempt even the most hardened shoppers. Visit the Ostertorviertel, or simply "Viertel", which is a lively quarter around the Ostertorsteinweg with pubs, discotheques, cinemas, boutiques and shops with groceries from all over the world.
