Eilbek ( spelling until 1946 : Eilbeck; Low German : Ielbeek , also Eilbeek ) is a district of Hamburg . It is located in the extreme southwest of the Wandsbek district and lies on the Wandse , which bears the name Eilbek there - west of the Maxstraße Eilbek Canal - and flows further into the Outer Alster.

geography

Eilbek is about four kilometers east of Hamburg city center. In the west it borders on Hohenfelde (here the road Wartenau - Landwehr forms the border), in the northwest on the Uhlenhorst , in the north on Barmbek-Süd (along the Eilbek Canal ), in the northeast, at the Friedrichsberg S-Bahn station, on the Dulsberg district , in the east to Wandsbek (route of the Hamburg freight bypass ) and to Marienthal , and in the south to Hamm (the route of the railway line to Lübeck ).

The quarter is mainly characterized by multi-storey residential developments in the post-war style. Only the Auenviertel located in the northwest of the district on the Eilbek Canal (here many street names end in -au such as Blumenau, Eilenau and Hagenau) has a smaller, mostly two-storey development with many old town houses and villas, gardens and lush greenery. There are a few scattered commercial operations, old converted factories and some larger administrative buildings near Hasselbrook train station .

history

Excerpt from the Varendorf map around 1790: Eilbek as a small settlement on the river of the same name, about halfway between Hamburg (left) and Wandsbek (right).
Map of the Vogtei Eilbek, 1868. To the north of the Eilbeker Weg, the not yet canalised course of the Eilbek River can be seen.

Eilbeck was first mentioned in a document in 1247 as Ylenbeke , which means something like Egelbach . Until the end of the 19th century, leeches were caught here for medicinal use. Eilbek initially belonged to the Hamburg Hospital of the Holy Spirit for around 600 years before the Geestlande ruled in 1830 as part of the reorganization of the Hamburg rural area . The southern border of the Eilbeker Flur originally formed the Heerweg from Hamburg to Lübeck (today's Wandsbeker Chaussee ); the southern part ( Hasselbrook ) belonged to Hamm . In 1856 the area was extended to the south along the Peterskamp to today's Papenstrasse / Pappelallee, and in 1865 finally to the newly built railway line to Lübeck .

After the Great Hamburg Fire in 1842, many of the citizens who had become homeless settled in Eilbek. In 1864 the Friedrichsberg State Hospital , today Schön Klinik Hamburg-Eilbek , was founded. After the construction of the Lübeck railway, the influx of people to Eilbek increased, which was initially elevated to a suburb in 1874 and finally incorporated into Hamburg as a district in 1894.

In 1923 Eilbek was one of the centers of the communist Hamburg uprising .

During the Second World War , Eilbek outside the Auenviertel was almost completely destroyed by the heavy air raids of Operation Gomorrah in July 1943. The buildings that were destroyed included the Hospital of the Holy Spirit and the Maria Magdalenen Monastery in Richardstrasse, both of which were administered by the upper elders.

When Hamburg was reorganized in 1949, Eilbek became part of the Wandsbek district .
