history

Surname

In 1159 Archbishop Hartwig I's pasture letter mentioned the area of ​​today's Findorff including the Bürgerpark and Stadtwald as a common ( common ) pasture area. It was usable for all citizens. The street Am Weidedamm was named in 1914 after the pasture and after the dam that accompanied the peat canal and which then became a street.

development

The western part, later separated by the pasture dam, was drained in the Middle Ages by a dense network of drainage ditches and used as a community pasture Kämpe for arable and garden areas.

The plantation was created by a Bremen merchant in 1750 in the south of the Bürgerweide Kämpe as a splendid summer residence and in 1802 it was expanded into an excursion destination.
From 1817 to 1826 the peat canal was built in Findorff and the peat harbor near the plantation. The peat, which is important as heating material, came across the canal by peat barge from the Teufelsmoor to the Findorff peat harbor. A new harbor basin (Theodor-Heuss-Allee) was built in 1847. The peat harbor - the peat basin - was relocated between Eickedorfer- / Neukirchstraße in 1873.

Starting in 1907, the first development on the Weidedamm took place. In 1995, after the parcel area had been cleared, the northeastern area of Weidedamm III was built with different house types. In 2001 the Am Weidedamm primary school was inaugurated in the area.
In 1999 the district of Weidedamm had 11,268 inhabitants.

traffic

A road was built on the dam leading to the peat canal in the 19th and 20th centuries.

In local transport in Bremen, the bus lines 26 (Überseestadt ↔ Huckelriede) and 27 (Weidedamm-Nord ↔ Hauptbahnhof ↔ Huckelriede) are close to the street at the Findorffallee stop on the streets Eickedorfer Straße / Hollerallee . Bus route 25 (Weidedamm-Süd ↔ Osterholz) has a final stop, Weidedamm-Süd, on Utbremer Ring .
