history

Surname

August Bebel (1840–1913) was one of the founders of German social democracy and is still considered one of its outstanding historical personalities to this day. From 1867 to 1881 and 1883 until his death, Bebel was a member of the Reichstag of the North German Confederation and the Empire, and from 1892 to 1913 chairman of the SPD. On November 11, 1958, the Senate decided to name the street after him.

Socially subsidized apartments were built in the large housing estate for over 33,000 residents. Neue Heimat was the client for many apartments . In 1964 the Holy Spirit Church was consecrated. At the beginning of the street, the IBM high- rise office was built until 1975 , which is now used by the Zech Group's holding company .
