German citizenship test Bremen — the 10 state questions explained

If you sit the test in Bremen, three of your 33 questions come from exactly these ten. The other 30 are federal. Questions from other states will not appear in your test.

The Free Hanseatic City of Bremen is the smallest German state and the only one made up of two municipalities lying apart from each other — Bremen and the seaport of Bremerhaven at the mouth of the Weser, some sixty kilometres downstream. Its parliament is the Bürgerschaft, its government the Senat, its leader the President of the Senate. The Roland and the town hall have been UNESCO World Heritage since 2004.

What to know about this state

The state's full name is the Free Hanseatic City of Bremen, and it consists of two separate cities: Bremen and Bremerhaven, some sixty kilometres away. Naturalisation therefore runs through the citizens' office of the municipality of Bremen or through the Magistrat in Bremerhaven, depending on where you live.
