Dominsel, Cultural heritage ensemble in Mitte, Germany.

The Dominsel encompasses the Bremen Cathedral and surrounding buildings between Domshof, Sandstraße, Domsheide, Grasmarkt, and Violenstraße, forming a cohesive architectural group.

The initial church construction on the Bremian Domdüne began in the 780s under mission bishop Willehad, establishing the foundation for centuries of urban development.

The ensemble includes the medieval cathedral, the concert hall Die Glocke from 1928, and multiple historic buildings that represent different architectural periods.

The site contains the cathedral museum, community facilities, and the Domarchiv, making it a central location for exploring Bremen's religious and architectural history.

Unlike other cathedral islands, Bremen's Dominsel does not refer to a water-surrounded area but rather defines a protected architectural zone within the city center.
