The Brehmstraße is a busy main thoroughfare and important North-South axis of Dusseldorf .
Nationwide, it is one of the most famous streets in Düsseldorf after Königsallee . It is mainly known for the ice rink on Brehmstrasse , which was the venue of the popular and traditional ice hockey club Düsseldorfer EG from 1935 to 2006 , where games from the ice hockey world championships in 1955, 1975 and 1983 also took place.
The street is located in the traditionally affluent district of Düsseltal (often referred to as Düsseldorf Zoo or the Zooviertel ). Brehmstrasse begins in the north at the so-called Mörsenbroicher Ei , a star-shaped intersection of several busy roads and the A 52 motorway , and ends in the south at Brehmplatz, another traffic junction. Here it leads past the Zoopark, where the Düsseldorf Zoological Garden was located from 1876 to 1943, but which was not rebuilt after it was destroyed in the bombing nights of World War II . Until 1987, however, the Löbbecke Museum and the associated aquarium were located in a former air raid shelter opposite the Zoopark , until they moved to a new building in Düsseldorf's Nordpark .
The street was named after the well-known zoologist and animal writer Alfred Brehm (Brehms Tierleben) , one of the main initiators of the Düsseldorf zoo.
