Aegidienstraße (Lübeck)
The Aegidienstraße is a street in Lübeck .
location
Aegidienstraße is located in the south-eastern part of the old town island of the Hanseatic city of Lübeck ( Johannis Quartier ) and runs in a west-east direction. It begins on Klingenberg and ends on the north side of St. Aegidien Church when it meets Balauerfohr , Stavenstraße and St.-Annen-Straße . It borders the Aegidienkirchhof .
history
Aegidienstraße was first documented in 1286 as “Platea Sancti Egidii”. In the following centuries, the spelling of the street name in the documents that have survived shows considerable variations:
- 1438: “St. Illienstrate "
- 1460: "St. Illigenstrate "and" St. Ilgenstrate "
- 1666: "Eydienstrate" and "Ottilienstraße"
“Aegidienstraße” has been the officially established spelling since 1852. However, in 1909 "Tilgenstrate" was still a widely used alternative name.
All variants are derived from the St. Aegidien Church, which is named after St. Aegidius and, like the road leading to it, has been given very different and sometimes barely recognizable variations of its name over the centuries.
Today's Schildstraße branching off to the south was considered part of Aegidienstraße until the late 19th century and was designated with the addition “up dem Ruggen”, while the northern arm was given the additional name “tegen den Scheren”. It was not until 1884 that the southern branch became "Schildstraße".
