The Union Station was completed in 1900 and functioned as a passenger terminal until 1979. Listed on the National Register of Historic Places, the landmark building experienced years of neglect until it was converted into an opulent hotel, detailed with wrought iron and Italian marble. Its lobby features a barrel-vaulted, 65-feet-high ceiling enclosed by stained glass. The station looks spectacular from the outside. If you're not staying at the hotel, you can still enjoy the interior while having drinks or dinner at Ergo restaurant, located inside this historic landmark. Check the hotel's facebook page for upcoming events like bartending competitions and live music nights.

Bremen has earned a reputation as a hub for aviation and aerospace, with Airbus Defence & Space being a significant contributor to this status. Over the years, the city has emerged as a major player in aeronautics. Numerous European space projects, including the International Space Station and the Spacelab were engineered here. There are two different tours available: the aviation tour, offering insights into how planes are manufactured, and the space tour, providing a firsthand experience of astronaut life in space.
