history

Surname

The Eickedorfer Straße was named after the place Eickedorf (Low German Eekdorp , Eicke = oak) in what is today the municipality of Grasberg in the district of Osterholz . Eickedorf is one of a series of villages that were created through the settlement and cultivation of the Teufelsmoor. It was Jürgen Christian Findorff (1720–1792) who decisively promoted the colonization of the Teufelsmoor and from which the district got its name; other similar places were therefore mentioned as street names.

development

From 1817 to 1826 the peat canal and the peat harbor were built. The peat basin was moved to Eickedorfer- / Neukirchstraße in 1873. The Findorff market has been taking place on the part that was filled in around 1945/46 since 1948.
In 1874 the Neukirchstraße was built by the haulier Arnold Neukirch and well-preserved houses were built to this day. In 1875 Findorff had 2500 residents, most of whom had their houses southwest of the street. Since 1893 the area of ​​the Hemmstrasse – Neukirchstrasse – Findorffstrasse railway line has been built on with one and two-story houses. In 1898 Eickedorfer Strasse was built parallel to Neukirchstrasse, which developed into a thoroughfare. In World War II, many houses were destroyed here. In 1954 the Martin Luther Church was established. The street is characterized by the post-war buildings. In 2006 the peat harbor was renovated.

traffic

The Bremen – Tarmstedt small railway , popularly known as Jan Reiners , was in operation from 1900 to 1956. In 1960 the only track system was a bypass. From there the route led along Hollerallee and Eickedorfer Strasse towards Findorff and to Bremen Hemmstrasse station .

In 1913 the connection to the Bremen tram network was established with line 9 from Hemmstraße - Findorfftunnel - main station to Sankt-Jürgen-Straße. A second connection was established in 1927 when the route to the Bürgerpark was extended through Eickedorfer Straße to Hemmstraße. Both lines were connected to a ring with lines 5 and 6 (at times 6A). The last trams in Findorff ran in 1964 (line 5) and 1967 (line 6).

In local traffic in Bremen, lines 26 (Überseestadt ↔ Huckelriede) and 27 (Weidedamm-Nord ↔ Huckelriede) run through the street and lines 25 (Weidedamm-Süd ↔ Osterholz) and 28 (Überseestadt ↔ Neue Vahr-Nord) touch the street at the Hemmstrasse.
