1 History
See also:Timeline of Bremen
The marshes and moraines near Bremen have been set-tled since about 12,000 BC. Burial places and settlementsin Bremen-Mahndorf and Bremen-Osterholz date backto the 7th century AD. Since the age of Renaissance,some scientists have believed that the entryFabiranumorPhabiranon inPtolemy's Fourth Map of Europe,[3] writ-ten in 150 AD, refers to Bremen. But Ptolemy gives geo-graphic coordinates, and by these dates Phabiranon is sit-uated northeast of the mouth of river Visurgis (Weser).At that time the Chauci lived in the area now called north-westernGermanyor Lower Saxony. By the end of the
3rd century, they had merged with theSaxons. DuringtheSaxon Wars(772804) the Saxons, led byWidukind,fought against theWest Germanic Franks, the foundersof theCarolingian Empire, and lost the war. Bremenis located 121 km (75 miles) northeast of Osnabrck,442 km (275 miles) north of Frankfurt am Main, 389km (242 miles) west of Berlin, 121 km (75 miles) south-west of Hamburg, 274 km (170 miles) east of Amster-dam, Netherlands, and 298 km (185 miles) northeast ofDsseldorf.
Charlemagne, theKing of the Franks, made a new law,theLex Saxonum. This law stated thatSaxonswere not
allowed to worshipOdin (the god of the Saxons), butrather that they had to convert to Christianity on pain ofdeath. This period was called the Christianisation. In
787 Willehad of Bremenwas the first Bishop of Bre-men. In 848 thearchdioceseof Hamburgmerged withthedioceseof Bremen into Hamburg-Bremen Archdio-cese, seated in Bremen, and in the following centuries thearchbishops of Hamburg-Bremen were the driving forcebehind the Christianisation of Northern Germany. In 888ArchbishopRimbert, managed to get Kaiser Arnulf ofCarinthia, theCarolingian King of East Francia, to grantBremen the right to hold its own markets, to mint its owncoins and make its own customs laws.
The citys first stone walls were built in 1032. Aroundthis time trade with Norway, England and the northernNetherlands began to grow, thus increasing the impor-tance of the city.

2 1 HISTORY
In 1186 the BremianPrince-Archbishop Hartwig of Uth-lede and his bailiff in Bremen confirmedwithout gener-ally waiving the prince-archiepiscopal overlordship overthe citytheGelnhausen Privilege, by whichFrederick IBarbarossagranted the city considerable privileges. Thecity was recognised as a political entity with its own laws.
Property within the municipal boundaries could not besubjected to feudal overlordship; this also applied to serfswho acquired property, if they managed to live in the cityfor a year and a day, after which they were to be regardedas free persons. Property was to be freely inherited with-out feudal claims for reversion to its original owner. Thisprivilege laid the foundation for Bremens later status ofimperial immediacy(Free Imperial City).
In fact, however, Bremen did not have complete inde-pendence from the Prince-Archbishops, in that there wasnofreedom of religion, and burghers were still forcedto pay taxes to the Prince-Archbishops. Bremen played
a double role; it participated in the Dietsof the neigh-bouring Prince-Archbishopric of Bremenas part of theBremianEstatesand paid its share of taxes, at least whenit had previously consented to this levy. Since the city wasthe major taxpayer, its consent was generally sought. Inthis way the city wielded fiscal andpolitical powerwithinthe Prince-Archbishopric, while not allowing the Prince-Archbishopric to rule in the city against its consent. In1260 Bremen joined theHanseatic League.
1.1 Advent of territorial power
In 1350, the number of inhabitants reached 20,000.Around this time the Hansekogge (cog ship) became aunique product of Bremen.
In 1362, representatives of Bremen rendered homage toAlbert II,Prince-Archbishop of Bremenin Langwedel.In return Albert confirmed the citys privileges and bro-kered a peace between the city andGerard III, CountofHoya, who since 1358 had held some burghers of Bremenin captivity. The city had to bail them out. In 1365 an ex-tra tax, levied to finance the ransom, caused an uprisingamong the burghers and artisans which was put down by
thecity councilafter much bloodshed.In 1366, Albert II tried to take advantage of the dis-pute between Bremens council and the guilds, whosemembers had expelled some city councillors from thecity. When these councillors appealed to Albert II forhelp, many artisans and burghers regarded this as treasonagainst the city. This appeal to the princes would onlyprovoke them to abolish autonomy of the city.
The fortified city maintained its own guards, not allow-ing prince-archiepiscopal soldiers to enter it. The city re-served an extra very narrow gate, the so-called BishopsNeedle (Latin: Acus episcopi, first mentioned in 1274),
for all clergy including the Prince-Archbishop. The nar-rowness of the gate made it technically impossible to en-ter accompanied by knights.

and of the Archbishopric of Bremen (yellow); straits between
lowerWeserandJadebusen.
Nevertheless, on the night of 29 May 1366, Albertstroops, helped by some burghers, invaded the city. Afterthis the city had to render him homage again, theBremenRoland, symbol of the citys autonomy, was demolishedand a new city council was appointed. In return the newcouncil granted Albert a credit amounting to the enor-mous sum of 20,000 Bremian Marks.
But city councillors of the previous council, who had fledto the County of Oldenburg gained the support of theCounts and recaptured the city on June 27, 1366. Themembers of the intermediate council were regarded astraitors and beheaded, and the cityde factoregained its
autonomy. Thereupon, the city of Bremen, which hadfor a long time held an autonomous status, acted almostin complete independence of the Prince-Archbishop. Al-bert failed to reduce the city of Bremen a second time,since he was always short of money and without the sup-port of his family, the Welfs, who fought theLneburgWar of Succession(137088).
By the end of the 1360s Bremen had granted creditsto Albert II, to finance his lavish lifestyle, and gainedin return the fortress of Vrdeand the dues levied inthe bailiwick belonging to it as a pawn for the credits.In 1369 Bremen again lent money to Albert II against
the collateral of his mint and his right to mint coins,which was from then on run by the city council. In 1377Bremen boughtfromFrederick, Duke of Brunswick-

Lneburgmany of the prince-archiepiscopal castles,which Albert had pledged as security for a loan to Fred-ericks predecessor. Thus Bremen gained a powerful po-sition in the Prince-Archbishopric (ecclesiastical princi-pality), pushing its actual ruler aside.
In 1380 knights of the von Mandelsloh family and oth-ersVerdian and Bremian robber baronsplundered theburghers of Bremen and the people of the entirePrince-Archbishopric of Bremen. In 1381 the citys troops suc-cessfully ended thisbrigandageand captured the castle ofBederkesaand the bailiwick belonging to it, which it wasable to hold until November 1654, when after theSecondBremian WarBremen had to cede Bederkesa and Lehe(a part of present-dayBremerhaven) toBremen-Verden.In 1386 the city of Bremen made vassals of the noblefamilies, which held the estates of Altluneburg (a part ofpresent-daySchiffdorf) andElmlohe.
1.2 Bremen and the Reformation
Bremen town hall.
When the Protestant Reformation swept throughNorthern Germany, St Peters cathedral belonged tothe cathedral immunity district (German: Domfrei-heit), an extraterritorial enclave of the neighbouringPrince-Archbishopric of Bremen. In 1532, thecathedral
chapter which was still Catholic at that time closed StPeters after a mob consisting of Bremensburghershadforcefully interrupted a Catholic Mass and prompted apastor to hold aLutheranservice.
In 1547, the chapter, which had in the meantime becomepredominantly Lutheran, appointed the Dutch AlbertRizaeus, called Hardenberg, as the first Cathedral pas-tor of Protestant affiliation. Rizaeus turned out to bea partisan of theZwinglianunderstanding of theLordsSupper, which was rejected by the then Lutheran ma-jority of burghers, the city council, and chapter. Soin 1561after heated disputesRizaeus was dismissedand banned from the city and the cathedral again closedits doors.
However, as a consequence of that controversy the ma-
jority of Bremens burghers and city council adoptedCalvinism by the 1590s, while the chapter, whichwas at the same time the body of secular govern-ment in the neighbouring Prince-Archbishopric, clung toLutheranism. This antagonism between a Calvinistic ma-jority and a Lutheran minority, though it had a power-
ful position in its immunity district (mediatised as partof the city in 1803), remained dominant until in 1873the Calvinist and Lutheran congregations of Bremen werereconciled and founded aunitedadministrative umbrellaBremian Protestant Church, which still exists today, com-prising the bulk of Bremens burghers.
At the beginning of the 17th century, Bremen contin-ued to play its double role, wielding fiscal and politicalpower within the Prince-Archbishopric, but not allowingthe Prince-Archbishopric to rule in the city without itsconsent.
1.3 Thirty Years War
Flag of Bremen.
Soon after the beginning of theThirty Years WarBre-men declared its neutrality, as did most of the territoriesin the Lower Saxon Circle. John Frederick, LutheranAdministrator of the Prince-Archbishopric of Bremen,desperately tried to keep his Prince-Archbishopric outof the war, with the complete agreement of the Estates
and the city of Bremen. When in 1623 theRepublicof the Seven United Netherlands, which was fightingin the Eighty Years War for its independence againstHabsburg's Spanish and imperial forces, requested itsCalvinistco-religionist Bremen to join them, the city re-fused, but started to reinforce its fortifications.
In 1623 the territories comprisingthe Lower Saxon Circledecided to recruit an army in order to maintain anarmedneutrality, since troops of the Catholic League werealready operating in the neighbouring Lower Rhenish-Westphalian Circleand dangerously close to their region.The concomitant effects of the war,debasementof thecurrency and rising prices, had already caused inflationwhich was also felt in Bremen.

4 1 HISTORY
diplomatically supported by KingJames I of England,the brother-in-lawof Christian IV of Denmark, starteda new anti-Habsburg campaign. Thus the troops of theCatholic League were otherwise occupied and Bremenseemed relieved. But soon after this the imperial troopsunderAlbrecht von Wallensteinheaded north in an at-
tempt to destroy the fadingHanseatic League, in orderto reduce the Hanseatic cities of Bremen, HamburgandtheLbeckand to establish a Baltic trade monopoly, tobe run by some imperial favourites including Spaniardsand Poles. The idea was to winSweden's andDenmark'ssupport, both of which had for a long time sought the de-struction of theHanseatic League.
In May 1625Christian IV of Denmark, Duke of Hol-stein was elected in the latter of his functions by theLower Saxon Circles member territoriescommander-in-chiefof theLower Saxontroops. In the same year Chris-tian IV joined the Anglo-Dutch military coalition. Chris-
tian IV ordered his troops to capture all the importanttraffic hubs in the Prince-Archbishopric and commencedtheBattle of Lutter am Barenberge, on 27 August 1626,where he was defeated by the Leaguist troops under Johan't Serclaes, Count of Tilly. Christian IV and his survivingtroops fled to the Prince-Archbishopric and establishedtheir headquarters inStade.
In 1627 Christian IV withdrew from the Prince-Archbishopric, in order to oppose Wallensteins invasionof hisDuchy of Holstein. Tilly then invaded the Prince-Archbishopric and captured its southern part. Bremenshut its city gates and entrenched itself behind its im-
proved fortifications. In 1628, Tilly turned on the city,and Bremen paid him a ransom of 10,000rixdollarsinorder to spare it a siege. The city remained unoccupiedthroughout the war.
The takeover by the Catholic League enabledFerdinandII, Holy Roman Emperor, to implement the Edict ofRestitution, decreed March 6, 1629, within the Prince-Archbishopric of Bremen including the city of Bremen.In September 1629Francis William of Wartenberg, ap-pointed by Ferdinand II as chairman of the imperial resti-tution commission for the Lower Saxon Circle, in car-rying out the provisions of the Edict of Restitution, or-
dered the Bremian Chapter, seated in Bremen, to renderan account of all the capitular and prince-archiepiscopalestates(not to be confused with theEstates). The Chap-ter refused, arguing first that the order had not been au-thorised and later that due to disputes with Bremens citycouncil, they could not freely travel to render an account,let alone do the necessary research on the estates. Theanti-Catholic attitudes of Bremens burghers and councilwas to make it completely impossible to prepare the resti-tution of estates from the Lutheran Chapter to the RomanCatholic Church. Even Lutheran capitulars were uneasyin Calvinistic Bremen.
Bremens city council ordered that the capitular andprince-archiepiscopal estates within the boundaries of the

unoccupied city were not to be restituted to the CatholicChurch. The council argued that the city had long beenProtestant, but the restitution commission replied thatthe city wasde jurea part of the Prince-Archbishopric,soProtestantismhad illegitimately taken over Catholic-owned estates. The city council replied that under thesecircumstances it would rather separate from theHoly Ro-man Empireand join the quasi-independentRepublic ofthe Seven Netherlands.[4] The city was neither to be con-quered nor to be successfully besieged due to its new for-tifications and its access to theNorth Sea.
In October 1631 an army, newly recruited by John Fred-erick, started to reconquer the Prince-Archbishopric

helped by forces from Sweden and the city of Bremen.John Frederick returned to office, only to implement thesupremacy of Sweden, insisting that it retain supremecommand until the end of the war. With the impendingenforcement of the military Major Power of Sweden overthe Prince-Archbishopric of Bremen, which was under
negotiation at theTreaty of Westphalia, the city of Bre-men feared it would fall under Swedish rule too. There-fore the city appealed for an imperial confirmation ofits status ofimperial immediacyfrom 1186 (GelnhausenPrivilege). In 1646Ferdinand III, Holy Roman Emperor,granted the requested confirmation (Diploma of Linz) totheFree Imperial City.

Nevertheless, Sweden, represented by its imperialfief Bremen-Verden, which comprised the secularisedprince-bishoprics of Bremen and Verden, did not acceptthe imperial immediacy of the city of Bremen. SwedishBremen-Verden tried to remediatisethe Free ImperialCity of Bremen (i.e., to make it switch its allegiance toSweden). With this in view, Swedish Bremen-Verdentwice waged war on Bremen. In 1381 the city of Bremenhad imposed de facto rule in an area around Bederkesa
and west of it as far as the lower branch of theWesernearBremerlehe (a part of present-day Bremerhaven). Earlyin 1653, Bremen-Verdens Swedish troops captured Bre-merlehe by force. In February 1654 the city of Bremenmanaged to getFerdinand III, Holy Roman Emperor, togrant it a seat and the vote in the Holy Roman EmpiresDiet, thus accepting the citys status as Free Imperial Cityof Bremen.
Ferdinand III demanded that Christina of Sweden,Duchess regnant of Bremen-Verden, compensate the cityof Bremen for the damages caused and restitute Bremer-lehe. When in March 1654 the city of Bremen started to
recruit soldiers in the area of Bederkesa, in order to pre-pare for further arbitrary acts, Swedish Bremen-Verdenenacted theFirst Bremian War(March to July 1654), ar-
guing that it was acting in self-defence. The Free Im-perial City of Bremen had meanwhile urged FerdinandIII to support it, who in July 1654 askedCharles X Gus-tav of Sweden, Christinas successor as Duke of Bremen-Verden, to cease the conflict, which resulted in the Recessof Stade(November 1654). This treaty left the main is-
sue, the acceptance of the city of Bremens imperial im-mediacy, unresolved. But the city agreed to pay tributeand levy taxes in favour of Swedish Bremen-Verden andto cede its possessions around Bederkesa and Bremerlehe,which was why it was later called Lehe.
In December 1660 the city council of Bremen renderedhomage as Free Imperial City of Bremen to Leopold I,Holy Roman Emperor. In 1663 the city gained a seat anda vote in the Imperial Diet, despite sharp protest fromSwedish Bremen-Verden. In March 1664 the SwedishDietcame out in favour of waging war on the Free Impe-rial City of Bremen. Right after Leopold I, who was busy
with wars against theOttoman Empire, hadenfeoffedtheminor KingCharles XI of Swedenwith Bremen-Verden,while the neighbouringBrunswick and Lunenburg-Cellewas occupied by succession quarrels and France not op-posed, Sweden started theSecond Bremian War(166566) from its Bremen-Verden fief.
The Swedes underCarl Gustaf Wrangellaid siege to thecity of Bremen. The siege broughtBrandenburg-Prussia,Brunswick and Lunenburg-Celle, Denmark, Leopold Iand the Netherlands onto the scene, who were all infavour of the city, with Brandenburgian, Cellean, Dan-ish, and Dutch troops at Bremen-Verdens borders ready
to invade. So on 15 November 1666 Sweden had tosign the Treaty of Habenhausen, obliging it to destroythe fortresses built close to Bremen and banning Bremenfrom sending its representative to the Dietof theLowerSaxon Circle. From then on no further Swedish attemptswere made to capture the city.
In 1700 Bremen introducedlike all Protestant territo-ries ofimperial immediacytheImproved Calendar, asit was called by Protestants, in order not to mention thename ofPope Gregory XIII. So Sunday, 18 February ofOld Style was followed by Monday, 1 MarchNew Style.
1.4 19th century
The harbour of Vegesack became part of the city ofBremen in 1803. In 1811, Napoleoninvaded Bremenand integrated it as the capital of the Dpartement deBouches-du-Weser (Department of the Mouths of theWeser) into the French State. In 1813, the Frenchasthey retreatedwithdrew from Bremen.
