Eversburg is a district in the north-western area of ​​the Lower Saxony city ​​of Osnabrück with 8,766 inhabitants (12/2019) spread over an area of ​​2.98 km².

location

In the north, Eversburg borders the Büren district of the North Rhine-Westphalian municipality of Lotte . It also borders the Osnabrück districts of Pye , Hafen , Westerberg and Atter (clockwise).

history

In the formerly sterile area, a flowing stream, which is now called Landwehrbach, enabled the establishment of the Eversfeld farm, which belonged to the nobleman Hermann von Blankena and who sold it to the Osnabrück Cathedral Chapter in 1223. The constant disputes with the Counts of Tecklenburg made it necessary around 1300 to create a Landwehr around Osnabrück and to fortify the court. The cathedral chapter converted Hof Eversfeld into a moated castle whose trenches were fed by the stream. From then on the court was called Eversburg; This name is first mentioned in a city bill in 1383. In 1718 a stone arch bridge, the so-called Roman Bridge , was built over the Hase .

The main building of the courtyard was demolished in 1840 and the Maria Trost castle chapel has been preserved to this day . The settlement of the areas around the Eversburg and the southern Eversheide took place mainly from the 1850s onwards by miners who worked in the nearby Piesberg colliery .

traffic connection

Rail transport

former Osnabrück-Eversburg train station

Eversburg lies at the crossroads of the three railway lines Löhne – Rheine , Oldenburg – Osnabrück and the Tecklenburger Nordbahn via Mettingen and Recke to Rheine. The currently decommissioned wedge station Osnabrück-Eversburg is located here .

The Löhne-Rheine railway line, first laid in 1856, crossed Eversburg without stopping, only one track to the mine on the Piesberg branched off. When the railway line to Oldenburg was opened on August 8, 1876, Eversburg received a passenger stop on this line, which was served by the Grand Ducal Oldenburg Railway (GOE). To visit the new Osnabrück-Eversburg station, the Grand Duke of Oldenburg and his wife traveled to Osnabrück-Eversburg (in what was then Prussian territory) in a special train in 1876 . Passenger trains on the Löhne-Rheine route, which belonged to the Prussian State Railways , still did not stop in Eversburg, only freight trains were exchanged between the railway companies here.

As a further branching line, the narrow- gauge Piesberg-Rheine small railway was put into operation on October 24, 1903. Since the conversion to standard gauge in 1935, it has been called the Tecklenburger Nordbahn . In 1940 a platform was finally laid on the route to Rheine.

With the shift of traffic from 1960 in favor of motorized individual traffic to the road, passenger traffic on the Tecklenburger Nordbahn was initially discontinued on September 25, 1965. The platform on the route to Rheine was closed in the 1980s and since 1991 the stop for trains towards Oldenburg has been suspended. Since then, the station has only been used for freight traffic to the Tecklenburger Nordbahn and to Oldenburg.

Reactivation efforts

Since the station was closed, efforts have been made to make a train stop in Eversburg possible again; these have been given new impetus by including the Tecklenburger Nordbahn in the local transport plan SPNV Westfalen-Lippe . Due to the increased number of commuters from the Tecklenburger Land as well as the heavy pollution of the urban area by motorized individual traffic, reactivating the route is considered to be economically sensible.

However, since the former station is in the wedge of the routes and is difficult to reach, the Eversburg-Büren stop is to be built a little north of the station in the junction to the Tecklenburger Nordbahn, at the level of the bus stop of the same name .

Bus transport

Eversburg was connected to the first trolleybus line in Osnabrück ; Line 5 ( with a tram connection ) ran from Rißmüllerplatz via Natruper Straße and split into two partial lines at Eversburger Platz to Eversburg-Büren (via Atterstraße) and Eversburg-Atter (via Wersener Straße). Today conventional city buses run from "Eversburg-Büren" or from Atter through Eversburg.

Road traffic

The most important street in the district is Wersener Straße (Landesstraße 88), which continues to the west without any crossings to the junction Osnabrück-Hafen of Autobahn 1 , to the southeast as Pagenstecherstraße towards the city center. At Eversburger Platz the Natruper Straße crosses, which continues out of town as Atterstraße in the direction of Lotte-Büren and opens up the north of the district.

religion

Eversburg is home to the Protestant St. Michaelis Church, the Catholic Church of Our Lady , an Orthodox Church and a mosque.

New Apostolic Church

The New Apostolic Church in Eversburg was founded in 1958. The church was closed on December 31, 2009, after the congregation had already merged with the New Apostolic congregation Osnabrück-Mitte in 2006.
