Friesischer Berg ( Danish : Friserbjerg ; Low German Friessche Barg ) is a district of Flensburg . The district lies above the Flensburg parish of St. Nikolai and stretches from the edge of Flensburg city center along Friesische Straße to Handewitt .

history

Large parts of the area belonged to the undeveloped urban field of Flensburg in the Middle Ages . How the city came to its large, undeveloped city space is reported in the myths about the five evil lords of the castle . After the construction of the Flensburg city wall , the Frisian Mountain and the adjacent Westliche Höhe were unsurfaced above the city. To protect the city, some ramparts were built a little later above the city moat . Otherwise the area initially remained undeveloped. From ancient times there is still the grave mound Friedenshügel (district of Friedenshügel ). The only building from the Middle Ages in this area that still exists today is the Exe , a festival and meeting place. The Museumberg was built at the end of the 19th century . The old water tower was built between 1901 and 1902 and the Friedenshügel cemetery was laid out in 1911 . The aforementioned buildings and others are still there today. Many of them have since been registered as cultural monuments of the district . In the eastern part of the district, which is close to the city center, almost all of the old buildings dominate the cityscape, while further to the west post-war buildings and modern architecture characterize the cityscape. Nowadays the federal highway 199 ( Zur Exe / Am Friedenshügel ) runs through the district in an east-west direction and the west tangent in a north-south direction . On the city limits to Handewitt is the small area Schäferhaus , which is also counted as part of the district. The nearby Nonnenberg (Margarethenberg) also belongs to the district. Part of the neighboring village of Gottrupel in the direction of Handewitt also belongs to the nearby district of Friesischer Berg.
