The City of Bremen
The City of Bremen receives its Overseas Guests at the Columbus Quay, in Bremerhaven, in the European "Station on the Sea-front". In 1 hour by train or 50 minutes by motor-car one reaches the 70 kilometers distant city on the Weser, the old Hanseatic City of Bremen; the city which, as a cultivated patrician city with its magnificent sites, offers the travelling public beautiful historical buildings and select hotels and restaurants, and at the same time, possessing most modern docks, is the busy centre of an extensive overseas-trade.
In contrast to the everyday appearance of many of the Hanseatic towns Bremen presents an architectural picture which makes everyone feel at home. Century-old tradition has made its impression. The Market Square is the focus of all that is characteristic of this city. The grouping of such venerable buildings as the magnificent City Hall, the valiant Roland, the Cathedral spires reaching heavenwards, the golden "Schütting" (now the seat of the Chamber of Commerce) was created from that proud, independent spirit of citizenship which has made Bremen.
It was the same energy of tenacious citizenship that sailed the first steamship on the Weser, inaugurated the first regular transatlantic Mail Line between Bremen and New York, created the first commercial submarine and rendered possible the first east-to-west air-flight over the ocean. But all this has not disturbed the dignified tranquility of the city. The centre of the city is too distant from the docks, shipyards and factories to be affected by their noises. The old moats are still in a good state of preservation and, like a green garland, entwine the actual city with its numerous reminiscences of the German medieval period.
Although modern offices and administration buildings have sprung up in the city and the rhythm of life has become more pronounced, the melody has remained the same. No wonder then, that many a globe-trotter was captivated with Bremen and meditatively sat in the "Ratskeller" brooding over the question as to how it was that this city offered a feeling of security and at the same time disclosed so much energy; how it was that this city supplied the whole of Europe with cotton, has old buildings, is the home of the Norddeutscher Lloyd who can claim as their own not only the fastest and largest German ships, the "Bremen" and "Europa", but also the popular Far East express trio "Potsdam", "Gneisenau" and "Scharnhorst", and who maintain services to all parts of the globe.
Important Notice
Payments on Board Our Steamers
According to the German Regulations Governing the Control of Foreign Currency German coins can be accepted from passengers in payment on board only during the ship's voyage from Europe to New York and then only within the limits of the RM. 10.— allowed under these regulations. No German money whatever — be it notes or silver — will be accepted on the homeward voyage from New York to Europe.
German coins under RM. 1.— in value will be accepted in payment everywhere on board, whereas coins in the denominations of RM. 1.—, RM. 2.— and RM. 5.— will have to be exchanged for board money with the Purser or paid to him to cover any account for expenses on board. All shops, stalls, and members of the ship's personnel are strictly forbidden to accept German coins to the value of RM. 1.—, RM. 2.— and RM. 5.— ; they are also strictly forbidden to accept Reichsmark notes. We would ask our Passengers kindly to strictly observe these regulations.

A Special Service Secretary on board will advise and assist passengers making their first visit to a foreign country. This service is also available for travelers with whatever special purpose in view, such as business, social, educational etc. This office is prepared to give any information gratis and, if possible, to assist in bringing the passenger in touch with the desired persons or firms.
