Have you ever heard of the Emmabank? It’s a special place, right here in Bremen’s Bürgerpark. Take a moment to look at this beautiful sculpture, it has a story. The Emmabank, a classic U-shaped structure, remembers a woman named Countess Emma of Lesum. Back in the year 1032, Countess Emma visited Bremen with her entourage. She listened to the Bremen citizens who were struggling to find enough pasture for their livestock. Seeing their plight, Emma assured them she would help. It was a bold promise, one she intended to keep. According to legend, Emma commanded a crippled beggar to walk as far as he could in an hour. And so, the Emmabank reminds us of a compassionate act that led to the creation of the Bürgerpark itself. Sit down on the Emmabank and imagine the grateful Bremen citizens, their lives forever changed thanks to Countess Emma’s generous gift. Enjoy the park’s natural splendor.
