Brake, District capital on the Lower Weser River, Germany
The municipality stretches along the western bank of the Weser River, featuring a seaport positioned between Bremen and Bremerhaven.
In 1861, the construction of a lock system transformed the original harbor into an inland port independent from tidal influences.
The Maritime Museum, housed in two historical buildings, presents the regional maritime history of the Oldenburg Lower Weser region through exhibitions.
The city administration provides citizen services at Schrabberdeich 1, with regular office hours for public consultations and administrative procedures.
The port facilities extend over 2,000 meters along the riverbank, handling maritime traffic and supporting regional industrial operations.
