history

Surname

Duckwitzstrasse was named in 1902 after the senator, mayor and businessman Arnold Duckwitz (1802–1881).

As a Hanseatic statesman, he was Reich Minister of Commerce from 1848 to 1849 and responsible for the Navy in the provisional government of the then emerging German Empire.

As a Senator, the trade agreement concluded between Bremen and the German Customs Union in 1856 was primarily his work. From 1857 to 1863 and from 1866 to 1869 he was also the mayor of Bremen .

development

The district of Neuenland is the location of Bremen Airport from 1920, around which the Airportstadt district has developed since the 1970s . In the area around Duckwitzstraße, larger residential buildings were built at the beginning of the street after 1960 and then various commercial buildings were built in a relatively disorderly manner. 1955 the tram was created. The retail group Wertkauf built a center in the 1970s. The US company Walmart followed later, followed by the Metro AG retail chain Real . The shopping center was taken over and refurbished in 2006 by the Luxembourg real estate investment company Corestate and continues to be operated by MEC Metro- ECE .

traffic

The road was laid out around 1900 and extended in 1910 to Kirchhuchting to Kirchhuchtinger Landstrasse . This extension later became Bundesstraße 75 with the name Oldenburger Straße .

Tram line 16 was extended in 1955 from Vulkanstraße by 800 meters to Ochtum . The new terminal was named Grolland , although this district only begins behind the Ochtum. A turning loop only came around 1957. In 1967 the previous lines 15 and 16 were given the line numbers of the discontinued lines 5 and 6. Line 6 was extended to Huchting in 1976 and ended at the Roland Center . In 1998 this line was given the number 1. At the same time, the new line 8 was introduced.

The Bremen tram runs through the street with lines 1 ( Huchting - Mahndorf station ) and 8 (Huchting - Kulenkampffallee ).

In local transport in Bremen, bus lines 52 (Huchting ↔ Kattenturm ) touch the street on Solinger Straße.
