Soldiers' Memorial at Brake Town Quay

Highlight • Monument

The soldiers' memorial on the Braker Stadtkaje was created by the sculptor Hans Damman from Berlin-Grunwald after the First World War.
The figure is made of Bavarian limestone and the base is made of Thuringian shell limestone, an extremely weather-resistant type of stone. The memorial is a protected monument due to its special importance for the cultural and structural development of the city of Brake (Unterweser).
The seated warrior, about to lay a laurel wreath for his fallen comrades, remembered the approximately 300 Bracers who fell in the First World War or died as a result. In memory of the dead in the First and Second World Wars, the monument has had the current inscription since 1952 and has thus been transformed into a memorial for the victims of both world wars.

Shipping Museum and Telegraph Brake

Highlight • Historical Site

The Braker Telegraph is the city's landmark. The brick building, built in 1846, was built as an optical telegraph station to receive and transmit ship messages between Bremerhaven and Bremen.

Today the Telegraph is home to part of the “Oldenburg Lower Weser Maritime Museum”. The telegraph tower contains all sorts of exhibits such as ship models, ship portraits and nautical instruments. Seafaring folk art can also be seen here. These include paintings, ship models under glass and in bottles, as well as carvings and rope works. (Source: brake-touristinfo.de/schiffahrtsmuseum/)
