Ehrenmal für die im Ersten Weltkrieg gefallenen Bremer, War memorial in Mitte district, Bremen, Germany.

The memorial features a circular brick wall containing 10,000 name stones, with a central stone sarcophagus flanked by two lion sculptures.

Ernst Gorsemann and Heinrich Wiepking-Jürgensmann designed this memorial, which was inaugurated on October 13, 1935 to honor Bremen soldiers who died in World War I.

The memorial includes a sculpture titled 'Mother with Children' by Ernst Gorsemann, whose head was restored in 1963 to represent mourning rather than life.

The memorial stands on Altmannhöhe hill in the eastern section of Bremen's Wallanlagen park, with restricted access for wheelchair users.

Each of the 10,000 name stones on the inner wall represents a fallen soldier, arranged alphabetically within a ring-shaped structure.
