Hemelingen, Administrative district in eastern Bremen, Germany.
Hemelingen is an eastern district of Bremen that encompasses five separate quarters: Hastedt, Hemelingen, Sebaldsbrück, Arbergen, and Mahndorf. The area stretches across a large expanse on the right bank of the Weser River, offering a mix of residential neighborhoods, parks, and shopping centers.
The area was first documented in written records around 1238 and became part of Bremen in 1939 when Prussian territories were incorporated. This late integration shaped how the five quarters developed over time.
The five quarters maintain their own character through local festivals and neighborhood gatherings that shape daily life in the east. You can experience these distinct communities in their public spaces and gathering spots.
The Bremen-Hemelingen railway station connects this area to the city center, making it easy to move around the district. Schools, parks, and shopping centers are scattered throughout, making daily life convenient for visitors and residents alike.
Sebaldsbrück is home to a major Daimler plant, one of the district's largest employers, and echoes the legacy of the former Borgward automobile factory that once operated there. Industrial heritage remains woven into the area's identity.
