Lloyd-Bahnhof stands near the northern exit of Bremen Central Station, and architect Rudolf Jacobs designed the former railway building.

The building dates from 1913 and serves Norddeutscher Lloyd.

Its neo-Baroque clinker façades frame a five-axis entrance portico and a round gable with Bremen’s key and an anchor.

The main waiting room once covered two floors.

Norddeutscher Lloyd uses the station for luggage and emigrants travelling to Bremerhaven before overseas voyages, especially to America.

Overseas passenger traffic resumes there in 1922.

Completion of Columbuskaje in Bremerhaven reduces the building’s importance by providing direct railway connections inland.

The building then serves as a secondary administrative seat.

During Nazi rule, Lloyd-Bahnhof becomes a deportation site for Jewish people and Sinti and Roma.

Jewish citizens from Bremen and Stade are deported from here to the Minsk ghetto.

After the Second World War, Bremen takes over the damaged building, and the shipping company later merges with HAPAG.

The merger forms Hapag-Lloyd in 1970.

The administrative wing houses companies and travel agencies.

Bremen has protected Lloyd-Bahnhof as a historical monument since 2001.
