2011 Map of Bremen

About this map

James River meanders across this rural Wells County landscape, its course punctuated by the Sellie Dam as it flows toward the southeastern corner of the quadrangle. This area of North Dakota is defined by its methodical section-line road system, with routes such as 15th St NE and 51st Ave NE framing a terrain largely dedicated to agriculture. The settlement of Bremen serves as a focal point in the northern reaches, while the presence of the German Baptist Cemetery provides a tangible link to the community's ancestral roots and religious heritage. The interplay between the river's natural path and the rigid grid of the road network illustrates the 20th-century development of the Great Plains, where human engineering and historic burial sites remain primary landmarks in a sparsely populated region.
