Bremen's Winterwald Ansgari: a charming gathering spot nestled right in the city center
Prepare for a festive season like no other as Bremen's city centre welcomes back the much-loved Winter Forest! Last year, the Winter Forest exceeded all expectations, enhancing the stay quality not only of the Ansgari Churchyard but also of the entire city centre.
This year, the Winter Forest will once again grace the Ansgari Quarter from November 25, 2024, to January 5, 2025. Visitors can look forward to seven weeks of enchantment, as the Winter Forest will be open from Sundays to Thursdays, 11:00 to 20:30, and Fridays and Saturdays until 21:30.
The Winter Forest promises a cultural and musical programme on Saturdays, along with illuminated Christmas trees, decorated wooden huts, and 3D glowing animals. But the real draw is the array of delicious food and drink on offer. Indulge in hot drinks, mulled wine, grill specialties, Belgian fries, fondue, crepes, and galettes at the Winter Forest.
Carolin Reuther, managing director of CityInitiative Bremen Werbung e.V., is delighted that the Winter Forest will take place again this year. She expresses her gratitude to the Winter Forest's financial supporters, including WFB Wirtschaftsförderung Bremen GmbH, Brepark GmbH, Handwerkskammer Bremen, and Meyflower Nordwest, for making this magical event possible.
The idea for the Winter Forest was initiated by the residents of the Ansgari Quarter, and it aims to provide a warm and cozy atmosphere for all to enjoy during the winter months. If you're planning a visit, be sure to check local event listings or the official city website for Bremen for any updates or additional information.
As the Winter Forest returns, Bremen's city centre is set to be transformed into a winter wonderland. Whether you're looking for a place to skate, shop, or simply soak up the festive atmosphere, the Winter Forest is the perfect destination for a memorable winter experience.
Immerse yourself in the magical ambiance of the Winter Forest, where you can enjoy a unique blend of lifestyle, fashion-and-beauty, food-and-drink, and home-and-garden experiences. Browse through fashionable clothing, beauty products, and home decor items in the illuminated wooden huts, or indulge in delectable treats such as hot drinks, fondue, crepes, and galettes.
