Fischerstrasse (Rostock)

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Fischer Street is a street in the historic center of the Hanseatic city of Rostock . It was the westernmost of the streets leading to the beach , that is, the port of the city on the Unterwarnow . Through it you got to the Fischertor , one of the earlier 12 beach gates. It was part of the former Rostock Neustadt , which was bordered in the west by the city wall and in the east by the Lagerstrasse , Faule Grube and Buchbinderstrasse lines from the Mittelstadt . Because of its peripheral location, it was inhabited by fishermen who were not very high in the social fabric of the city. Accordingly, the development was quite modest, preferably half-timbered booths .

During the four-night bombardment of the Royal Air Force at the end of April 1942, it was completely destroyed along with the near and far. Today's Fischerstrasse only shares its name with the original; it was laid out 30 meters east of the old Fischerstrasse during the reconstruction. There is now a parking lot on the west side.
