Worpswede

“Worpswede, Worpswede . . . it is a wonderland!", Paula Becker wrote in her diary in 1897 and the poet Rainer Maria Rilke enthused about a "sky of indescribable variability and grandeur”. To the present day artists and visitors interested in art and culture are captivated by the charm of Worpswede and its sandy hill - the "Weyerberg". Birch trees line the streets into the village, situated 25 km north-east of Bremen, in the midst of the expansive, picturesque “Teufelsmoor” [Devil's Moor] with river Hamme and its lowlands.
