Perhaps you aren't too familiar with many cities in Germany, but Bremen is famous for a Brothers Grimm fairy tale. "The Town Musicians of Bremen", is about 4 animals that run away from their owners and want to make it as musicians in the city of Bremen. On their way, during the first night they see robbers in the house that they want to stay at. So having the donkey on the bottom, the dog, then the cat, and then the rooster on top, and having them make their music (braying, barking, meowing, and crowing) startles the robbers and they leave the home. So, apparently they made it big in the town of Bremen. Allie and Isabelle find their statue near the Rathaus.

The Rathaus (town hall)(1410) and the double towered Dom St Petri (9th century).
