The Weseruferpark Rablinghausen is located in Bremen in the Woltmershausen district, Rablinghausen district directly on the Weser .

history

The village of Lankenau, first mentioned in the 13th century, was located in this area . It was leveled due to the deepening of the Weser and the construction of the Neustädter Hafen . In the construction of the port to the left of the Weser, the sand dredged from the Weser was washed up to a thickness of around five to seven meters and covered with a layer of topsoil.

The approx. 22 hectare Weseruferpark was laid out from 1970 to 1974 according to plans by the Hamburg architect Karl-Georg Lindenlaub. The elongated green area with the paths on the dyke from the Hanseatenkampfbahn in Woltmershausen to Lankenauer Höft is accompanied by the river Weser and the port facilities. Maritime elements, such as anchors , propellers, tons or buoys are distributed over the entire park and remind visitors of the port time. The biodiversity with 112  species from 32 families is remarkable. A street leads to the Lankenauer Höft , today a restaurant and a harbor building with a wide view.

The Lankenau monument made of Corten steel from 1975 came from Hans-Jürgen Breuste and was once ironically called the “scrap box”. The monument with its size of 10 m × 8 m × 4 m was intended to create a reference to the Gröpelinger Weser side in its spacious surroundings, as a former shipyard and industrial site. It had to be dismantled through rust in 2006.

In 2006 a play and water garden was created . The 300 meter long bathing beach on the Weser has been usable since 2009. A small iron cog by Hans-Dieter Tietjen reminds of the place where the Bremen cog from 1380 was found, which can be seen in the German Maritime Museum in Bremerhaven .

In 2012, a disc golf course with 18 holes in the Weseruferpark was completed. The facility is open to the public.
