Bant borders in the west with Banter Weg and Genossenschaftsstraße on the Ebkeriege district , in the north with Bismarckstraße on the districts of Neuende and Siebethsburg , in the east with Schillerstraße , Metzer Weg and Luisenstraße on the city ​​center and in the south with the dike bridge, the Emsstraße and Rüstringer bridge to the district 's inner harbor .

In the urban structure, the district of Bant is further divided into the districts of Bant (south of Peterstrasse), Hansaviertel (between Werftstrasse and Schillerstrasse, north of Peterstrasse) and Jadeviertel (between Genossenschaftsstrasse and Werftstrasse, north of Peterstrasse).

The Banter fishing village stands on the Banter sea dyke . The fishermen's huts have been mobile since the dike was raised in the 1980s and are moved to protect the inner dykes in October.

Emergence

The community of Bant was created by separating the three workers 'settlements of Belfort, Sedan and Metz from the Neuende parish, as Neuende rejected the workers' settlements due to his rural thinking.

The shipyard houses are typical of Bant. They were built between 1872 and 1877 as largely uniform semi-detached houses. The architectural center of this district is the Banter Church . The Banter cemetery has been prepared as a park for some time. Because of its past, the people of Wilhelmshaven call it the "Bone Park".
