Bremerhaven has only a few historical buildings, and the high street and city centre are almost entirely post-war.
The main attractions for tourists are found at the Havenwelten and include an attraction about climate change, the Klimahaus Bremerhaven 8° Ost, the German Emigration Center (since August 8, 2005) and the German Maritime Museum (Deutsches Schiffahrtsmuseum) by Hans Scharoun from 1975, featuring the Hansekogge, a vintage cog dating from 1380, excavated in Bremen in 1962, and the historical harbour (Museumshafen) with a number of museum ships, such as the Type XXI U-boat Wilhelm Bauer (a museum of its own), the Seute Deern (a wooden three-masted sailing vessel), and the salvage tug Seefalke from 1924.
The Bremerhaven Zoo reopened on 27 March 2004, after a lengthy renovation.
 It features Arctic wildlife, both terrestrial and marine.
The latest addition is the Klimahaus from 2009, simulating travel adventure along the 8th line of longitude and dealing with climate issues.
Two gazebos can be found on top of the Atlantic Hotel Sail City and the Radar Tower.
Another tourist spot is the Fischereihafen (fishing port) in Geestemünde which also houses an aquarium (the Atlanticum).
The Lloyd-Werft shipyard is renowned for building and renovating large cruise liners, for example Norway.

Every five years Sail Bremerhaven is held, a large sailing convention that attracts tall ships from all over the world.
The last time it was held was in 2015 with over 270 vessels and 3,500 crew members.
In 2011 Bremerhaven set the record for the largest ever parade of boats, with 327 vessels in the parade.
This record was broken in 2012 by the Thames Diamond Jubilee Pageant, with 1,000 boats.

The passenger terminal Columbuskaje, built at the Weser bank in 1927 to avoid time-absorbing locking, has been transferred into a cruise terminal (Columbus Cruise Center Bremerhaven/CCCB).
Also three marinas are available, the latest accessible through a new lock at Neuer Hafen.
