course
Over a length of 1.5 km the Altenbekener Damm crosses the southern part of the city in a straight line and roughly west-east. It begins at the Maschsee and the Rudolf-von-Bennigsen-Ufer in the west and merges into Lindemannallee in the Bult district at the level of the Hanoverian Southern Railway .
history
The course of the road follows the original embankment of the Hanover – Altenbeken railway line , which was opened in 1872. In 1909, the railway line was relocated further south to the freight bypass line, which is still used today , so that the dam could finally be expanded as a road. It was named Altenbekener Damm in 1912.
In front of the Maschsee, the dam ran as far as the Hannover-Linden / Fischerhof train station ; today it is interrupted by the lake. The western part, which is in Ricklingen , has been developed as a footpath and is called Ohedamm . Here you can still see the old route of the railway from the two listed railway bridges in the Leine-Masch.
