There are so many must see sights and attractions in Bremen, from the sculpture of the Bremen Town Musicians to the Roland Statue.

The Bremen Town Musicians are four fairy-tale animals. They are a cornerstone of the city and you will come across them throughout the old quarter of Bremen. A famous sculpture of them is located just outside the town hall; children delight in hearing the animals' voices when they drop a coin into the underground collection box in front of the State Parliament building. You can even take a trip to visit the donkey's grave, which is situated on Böttcherstrasse.
