Teerhof, Peninsula and archaeological site in Bremen, Germany

The Teerhof area extends between the River Weser and Kleine Weser, featuring remnants of medieval shipbuilding activities and modern cultural institutions.

The site, first documented in 1624 as Theerhof, functioned as a shipyard where workers applied tar to vessel hulls and ropes for maritime purposes.

The former Weserburg coffee factory transformed into the Museum of Modern Art in 1991, establishing Europe's first collectors' museum in this location.

A pedestrian bridge constructed in 1992 connects Teerhof to the Schlachte area, providing direct access to Bremen's central district and riverside promenade.

Archaeological excavations revealed the Beluga ship, constructed with materials from both Livonia and local sources, demonstrating medieval European maritime connections.
