Surname

Fürther Straße was named after the Bavarian city of Fürth in Middle Franconia . The city is part of the metropolitan region around Nuremberg, Erlangen and Schwabach.

development

In 1875 Findorff had 2500 inhabitants. From after 1900 intensive development took place in this part of the village. By 1914, the schools on Regensburger Strasse, Gothaer Strasse and Nürnberger Strasse were built in the district, which has been the Findorff secondary school since 2009/10 . In World War II, many houses were destroyed here. The street is characterized by the post-war buildings.

traffic

In 1913 the connection to the Bremen tram network was established with line 9 from Hemmstraße, past Regensburger Straße to the Findorfftunnel - main station and 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).
