Port of Bremen Passenger Lists

New Dock, Bremerhaven 1907

Bremerhaven is the seaport of the City Municipality of Bremen, a Hanseatic city in northwestern Germany. A commercial and industrial city with a major port on the River Weser, Bremen is part of the Bremen-Oldenburg metropolitan area.

Bremen is some 60 km (37 mi) south from the Weser mouth on the North Sea. With Bremerhaven right on the mouth the two comprise the state of the Free Hanseatic City of Bremen.

While technically, passengers embarked and disembarked in Bremerhaven, the passenger lists all state Bremen and the origination or destination port.
