Woltmershausen
Constant change along the Weser river
© WFB - LPE
Bremen's southwest is worth living in: the district of Woltmershausen offers more than just a local recreation area directly on the Weser and complements near-city living options in multicultural surroundings with urban flair. The districts of Rablinghausen and Woltmershausen are characterised by constant change in the port industry and residential development as well as industrialisation and renaturation.

Simply Woltmershausen
Despite the constant changes in the structure of the district, one fact has remained the same for years: old-established residents refer to their district as Pusdorf or Pusdorp. Whether the name is influenced by the strong wind directly on the river or is based on the family name of a large farmer in the area can no longer be precisely determined today. What is clear, however, is that the traditional name is not just part of everyday language. In the summer months, the Weser ferry "Pusdorp" connects the left bank of the Weser at Lankenauer Höft with the right bank at the stops Pier 2 and Molenturm.
