Molenturm Überseehafen-Süd: Bremen's Maritime Beacon
Discover Bremen's maritime history at the Molenturm Überseehafen-Süd, a charming lighthouse offering picturesque views and a glimpse into the city's seafaring past in the heart of the revitalized Überseestadt.
The Molenturm Überseehafen-Süd, affectionately known as the 'Mäuseturm' (Mouse Tower), stands as a charming sentinel at the entrance to Bremen's Überseestadt harbor. Erected in 1906, this petite lighthouse, only 12 meters tall, has become a beloved landmark and a testament to the city's rich maritime history. Despite suffering damage from a collision in its early years, the Molenturm was rebuilt and continues to guide ships with its distinctive green light. Today, it's a popular destination for walkers and cyclists, offering picturesque views of the Weser River and the surrounding harbor area. The tower's unique architecture, featuring a round stone structure with a green lantern house and copper roof, makes it a captivating subject for photographers and a cherished symbol of Bremen's revitalized Überseestadt. The surrounding area has been thoughtfully landscaped, creating a welcoming space for relaxation and recreation, solidifying the Molenturm's place as a must-see attraction for visitors exploring Bremen's maritime heritage and modern urban development.
