history

Surname

The street was named after the Free and Hanseatic City of Hamburg , which, together with the Hanseatic City of Lübeck and the Free Hanseatic City of Bremen, were commissioned to preserve the best for the good of the Hanseatic League at the Hanseatic Days in 1629 and 1641 .

development

In the Middle Ages, a trade route led from the Domburg in Bremen on the dunes along the Weser in the direction of Verden .

The lifting of the gate lock to Bremen's old town and the legal equality of the suburbs with the city citizens in the middle of the 19th century made moving to the suburbs more attractive. After parts of the Steintor district were settled, the eastern suburb expanded further east. Hamburger Strasse was paved and the cross streets were laid out around 1870 to 1880. Smaller houses were often built, which were replaced in the following years by eaves houses in the style of historicism and the Wilhelminian era . After the dike breached in 1881 and the construction of the new dike on the Weser , new building land was gained in the eastern area of ​​the Peterswerder district and on the now extended Hamburger Straße.

In 1897, in the neighborhood of the free school Am Schwarzen Meer, the teachers' seminar was established on Hamburger Strasse, which existed until 1926. In 1922 a school for boys was set up in the building. In 1952 it became the secondary school on Hamburger Strasse and finally the grammar school on Hamburger Strasse . The reform pedagogue Anna Schomburg founded a private secondary school in 1909, Hamburger Strasse No. 8. In 1946 the school was merged with the Janson School .

The five-storey buildings with flat or gable roofs at Hamburger Strasse 222 to 240, Weimarer Strasse 1 to 5, Altenburger Strasse 2 to 24 and Stader Strasse 54 to 58 were built between 1928 and 1929.
During the Second World War , the eastern suburb was one of the parts of the city that was only slightly destroyed by bombing. After the war, housing was built in the north / east area of ​​the street.

traffic

In 1879 a horse-drawn tram line was opened from Hastedt to Walle . When this was electrified in 1900, there was also a branch through Hamburger Straße to Weserlust (today Georg-Bitter-Straße). This was soon extended to the Hohwisch (depot) and in 1939 to the Weserwehr. Since the introduction of line numbers in 1908 (then lines 1 to 8), Hamburger Straße has always been used by line 3.

In addition, from 1963 to 1975 line 10 from the Steintor ran like line 2 to the Bennigsenstraße stop, then via a newly built single-track line to the new Georg-Bitter-Straße terminal and back to the west like line 3 via Hamburger Straße.

The Bremen tram runs through the street today with line 3 (Gröpelingen - Weserwehr ) and sometimes with line 10E (Gröpelingen - Hauptbahnhof - Sebaldsbrück).

Buildings and facilities

There are mainly two to three-story buildings in the street and four-story buildings in the east.
