The Archbishopric of Bremen was an ecclesiastical state in the Holy Roman Empire. It did not include the city of Bremen, but rather the area to the north of it, between the Weser and Elbe Rivers.

The state was secularized by the Lutherans in 1558, and was given to Sweden by the Peace of Westphalia in 1648, which also fully recognized the secularization, and changed the territory's status from an Archbishopric to that of a duchy.
