The hotel
On August 1, 1889, Wilhelm Vornekahl leased a house in Lüneburg at Lüner Strasse 13 and called it Vornekahl's Gasthaus . In 1891 he married Marie Otto, their daughter Mathilde later ran the inn with her husband Albert Brakel. Until his death in 1909, Vornekahl not only ran the inn, but also ran agriculture and brewed his own beer.
On November 25, 1919, Mathilde Vornekahl married Albert Brakel, with whom she continued the inn. The couple had two children, Ilse and Albert jun. There are guest rooms in the side wing of the house and on the second floor. The name of the inn was changed to "City of Bremen". From 1958 Albert Brakel jun. and his wife Gerda run the business. Under her leadership, the “City of Bremen” became the “Hotel Bremer Hof”. In 1972 the "Gästehaus Rotehahn" was added, and in 1975 the new "Haus Tilly" building. The hotel was expanded to include the neighboring house, which was extensively restored and converted into a hotel. The “Kaufmannshaus” was inaugurated for the centenary in 1989. After Albert Brakel's death in 1995, Thomas Brakel and his wife Kerstin took over the business and continued to run the hotel and restaurant.
