The artists' village of Fischerhude is located not far from Bremen. A popular destination for extensive cycling tours, it is around 20 kilometers from Bremen and boasts vast landscapes and traditional arts and crafts.

In the tradition of art

After Otto Modersohn discovered the town for himself in 1896, it became a magnet for painters. In their tradition, numerous artists are still drawn to Fischerhude today. Works by the first generation can be seen in the local galleries, as can works by contemporary artists. For example, the Otto Modersohn Museum, Buthmanns Hof and the carefully restored Galerieholländer windmill are regularly the venue for changing exhibitions.

There are more than 10 old farms in Fischerhude, including the Irmintraut homestead. It is assumed that the inscription on the door beam refers to a renovation of the façade and reads: "May 3, 1768". The Heimathaus therefore has over 250 years of history. The local history museum is located within this historic building.
