Delmenhorst, Independent municipality in Lower Saxony, Germany

Located 10 kilometers west of Bremen, Delmenhorst spans across 62 square kilometers of flat terrain at 7 meters above sea level.

The settlement emerged after the Count of Oldenburg acquired land near the Delme river in 1234, leading to castle construction in 1247.

The Nordwolle Museum displays industrial heritage collections in former factory buildings, documenting the local textile manufacturing traditions.

The central train station provides regular connections to Bremen and Oldenburg, with journey times under 15 minutes to both cities.

Former linoleum factories and spinning mills stand as witnesses to the industrial revolution that transformed this medieval settlement.
