history

Surname

The street was named after the original course on the western harbor obdeich and was formerly called By dem Dieke . From 1933 to 1945 it was called Hindenburgstrasse.

development

Chamberlain

Deichstrasse from 42 to 47 and from 43 to 47 are among the oldest populated parts of the street. It used to lead with two arches around two Wehle or Bracke created by a breach of the dike . The arches have been preserved as Mühlenweg and Alter Deichweg. After the dike was straightened at the end of the 18th century, it ran in a straight line. In 1939 the road was widened by moving the dike.

The Cuxhaven School was established in 1878, Deichschule from 1919 , Wichernschule from 1967 and Waldorf School from 2005.
