description

In terms of population density, the district is one of the smaller districts of Halle (Saale) . A large number of renovated old buildings characterize the image of the district, as do a number of streets with newly built single-family houses and numerous sports facilities.

At the end of the 19th century, two important social institutions were built in what is now the district. The main building of the Paul Riebeck Foundation, built between 1894 and 1896, is a nursing home with an extensive park in Kantstrasse. In its direct vicinity, the Friedrich-Wilhelms-Provinzialblindenanstalt, today's vocational promotion agency for blind and visually impaired people, was built in the same period on Bugenhagenstrasse.

The garden city of Gesundbrunnen, built between 1926 and 1931 as a city extension to the south-west, occupies a large part of the district. By 1970, the connection to the northern districts and the expansion of the southern part of the city ​​was completed.

The large-scale Pestalozzipark created in connection with the construction of the garden city ​​is used for recreation in this district and at the same time connects it with the adjacent Südstadt district .

An impressive example of the non-profit housing construction of the Weimar Republic are the multi- storey apartment buildings north of the Vogelweide, the so-called Vogelweide-Siedlung , built by the architect Heinrich Faller from 1930-1931 in the New Building style .

• Erdgas Sportpark (known as Kurt-Wabbel-Stadion before the new building in September 2010 ) → Home stadium of Halleschen FC (HFC)
