Übersee-Museum Bremen – the forecourt of one of Germany’s most fascinating world museums.

Located directly next to Bremen’s main railway station, the museum was founded in 1896 and combines ethnology, natural history, and trade history under one roof. Its historic façade overlooks a lively green square where people gather, pigeons wander across the lawn, and the city atmosphere meets global perspectives.

The Übersee-Museum connects continents and cultures, presenting exhibitions about Africa, Asia, Oceania, and the Americas — always exploring the relationships between people, nature, and commerce. A place where Bremen’s maritime trade history meets stories from around the world.

Seit Anfang des Jahres experimentieren wir mit einer neuen Chance für die "Wissensarbeit", die im Alltag häufig auf der Strecke bleibt und die uns aber den Spaß an unserer Arbeit bedeutet. Eine Woche im Monat für das Projekt, um Riesenschritte zu machen, ohne die regulären Meetings, Jour fixes, schnellen Reaktionen - in voller Konzentration auf die zu erarbeitenden Inhalte, das Dokumentieren, Ausprobieren, Entscheiden und Abschließen von Gedanken. #digSmus #digitaleSammlung #ÜberseeMuseum
