The square is named after Rear Admiral Karl Rudolf Brommy (1804–1860), who was Commander-in-Chief of the Reichsflotte , the first all-German Navy of the German Reich from 1848/1849 , from 1849 to 1853 .

In the short time this fleet consisted of a maximum of 12 ships as frigates and corvettes with the wheel frigate Hansa as the flagship.

development

The lifting of the gate lock to Bremen's old town and the legal equality of the suburbs with the city citizens in the middle of the 19th century made moving to the suburbs more attractive. After parts of the district Steintor were settled, the eastern suburb expanded further to the east. The residential streets were laid out between 1870 and 1880. After the dike broke in 1881 and the new dyke on the Weser , new building land could be obtained in the eastern area of ​​the Peterswerder district. During the Second World War , the eastern suburb was one of the parts of the city that was only slightly destroyed by bombing.

The triangular square developed into a rather disordered quarter green with the Brommy playground . Every first or second weekend in September, the Brommyfest has been taking place in Peterswerder since 2002 .

traffic

In 1879 a horse-drawn tram line from Hastedt to Walle was opened and electrified around 1900. In 1908 line numbers were introduced. Line 3 ran in an easterly direction around 1920 to the Hohwisch (depot). In 1939, line 3 was extended to the Weserwehr.

The tram line 3 ( Gröpelingen - Weserwehr ) runs past the square on Hamburger Straße in Bremen .
