Bremer Marktplatz, Medieval square in Mitte, Germany
The central marketplace encompasses 3,484 square meters of sandstone pavement featuring a wheel pattern with a Hanseatic cross at its center.
The square functioned as a commercial center since Charlemagne's time, with its southern edge bordering the Balge River, Bremen's first port.
The surrounding architectural complex includes the Town Hall and Roland Statue, both recognized as UNESCO World Heritage sites in 2004.
The square remains closed to vehicles and transforms into a Christmas market in December and hosts the Freimarkt Fair in October.
A special drain cover called Bremen Hole produces animal sounds of the Town Musicians when visitors insert coins for charitable purposes.
