Gete (Bremen)

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Gete , historically Gethe , was a watercourse in the east of Bremen . It originated on the edge of the center of Hastedt at the site of today's ADAC high-rise. It was partly fed by a flood arm of the Weser, which branched off from the main stream in the area of ​​today's Hastedter Brückenstraße and found a gap in the Bremen dune next to the Getekamp road . Where the two runs came together, there were the Getekuhlen, two elongated ponds in which fish were caught, one of them on the border with the Pagenthorn field. From there the Gete flowed east of today's street An der Gete and south of Kirchbachstraße to Schwachhausen, through the village and on to behind Gut Riensberg along today's Schwachhauser Heerstraße , then along Ernst-Grohne-Weg to the confluence (location) in the Kleine Wümme south of the Horner church. With the development in the first half of the 20th century, the watercourse disappeared. Only a small pond (location) in the area of ​​the Allotment Garden Association for Silent Peace west of Obernkirchener Straße remains of the Gete as the remainder of the Getekuhlen .
