Hahneberg (Dresden)
As Hahneberg height jump a natural is terrace orographic right of Weißeritz in the Dresden districts Plauen and Suedvorstadt referred, which is about at the Church of the Resurrection in Plauen in the valley walls of Plauenschen ground connects and its nördlichster foothills to the Wilsdruffer suburb (so-called Falk blow handed) today, however, ends south directly at the tracks of the Dresden main station . This name is almost forgotten, only the Hahnebergstraße , which was laid out in 1876 , still reminds of this name, which has been in use for many centuries. The actual namesake was removed between 1902 and 1907 and leveled to the level of the Elbe valley.
development
Name story
The valley of the Plauen reason - a breakthrough valley of the Weißeritz between the Potschappel district of today's city of Freital and the Dresden Elbe valley expansion - leaves the actual mountain formation at the point where the village of Plauen later emerged. In terms of natural history, however, a geological and urban-historical special form of terrain emerged in the transition from the valley walls of the Weißeritz and the slopes of the Elbe, which were created by both of them with their river, the highest elevation of which can be proven as hahneberg from 1464 .
description
Due to the displacement of ice-age rubble and debris ( moraine ), which can last be assigned to the Elster Cold Age, a (nameless) terrace was created between the Weißeritz and the village of Nickern in front of the southern slopes of the Dresden Elbe, which characterizes parts of the south of Dresden as a height offset. It can be described in its limits, to a large extent by today's streets, as follows: Zwickauer Straße in the west, the grounds of Dresden Central Station in the north, Bergstraße in the northeast, then following Reichenbachstraße, through the village of Strehlen and Reicker Straße as others northern border and finally northeast running as a slope edge to Torna and Nickern. In addition, it can be proven with individual foothills as a height offset to Niedersedlitz , its end is described in Dobritz with the street Am Moränenende . The largest area in terms of area of this geologically created terrain terrace is in today's districts of Plauen and Südvorstadt, where the highest elevation of this terrace in front of the Elbe slopes was located west of the Alter Annenfriedhof in the middle of a hilly slope edge towards the Weißeritz.
This (highest) elevation has been traceable as hahneberg since 1464 . However, since it was not a prominent elevation in the narrower sense, the name Hahneberg was carried over to ever greater lengths of the western terrain jump of this terrace, until finally, at the beginning of the 19th century, the entire height jump from Plauen over the southern suburb and its end at the Falkenschlag , the southwestern one The extension of the Wilsdruffer Vorstadt (area between Ammonstraße and Eisenbahntrasse, destroyed in 1945 and removed and leveled by 1964) was designated as Hahneberg .
History from 1830
In 1940 the local researcher Paul Dittrich chose the more appropriate name Hahnebergrücken for the entire slope edge , until then the entire slope was now called Hahneberg . It was used for agriculture until the middle of the 19th century, the slope edge was lined with wild fruit trees. In 1813 it was the scene of the fighting for Dresden .
After 1830 this (western) elevation jump was massively industrialized, starting with the Feldschlößchen brewery in 1838. Until 1844 the only accessible incision from the Weißeritz was from the Zellische Weg (today on the ridge: Altenzeller Straße), in 1851 the rail connection between the Böhmische Bahnhof and Leipziger Bahnhof in Neustadt were built and the Hahneberg cut was created, which was initially spanned by two brick arch bridges on the Chemnitzer and Bergstrasse , later three steel bridges (from west to east: Falkenbrücke , Chemnitzer Brücke, Hohe Brücke ).
The (actual) Hahneberg, so called in the late Middle Ages, west of the Old Annenfriedhof , was cut from the 1870s with the construction of Falkenstrasse (since the incorporation of Plauen to Dresden in 1903: Zwickauer Strasse), in 1902 for gravel extraction in part and finally in 1907 for building land the height of the Elbe valley level is shown. The western border of the Old Annenfriedhof was secured by mighty retaining walls, which today mark the historical location of the actual Hahneberg towards Zwickauer Straße.
today
The name finally disappeared from public perception in the 20th century, only the Hahnebergstraße, which was named in this way from 1876 to this day, as a connecting street between Zwickauer and Chemnitzer (today: Budapester) Straße , is remembered.
