Linden trees
The village of Linden originated in the 11th century and grew into an industrial city in the 19th century, which was incorporated into Hanover in 1920. Linden today consists of the districts of Linden-Mitte, -Nord and -Süd. It is characterized by a diverse gastronomic scene and a high proportion of students and residents with a migration background. Civic engagement is pronounced, and cultural activities (such as the ferryman festival ) have a city-wide appeal. The expression of the local self-image is the "Lindener Butjer", a regional figure based on the playing children of the early 20th century.
history
founding
Linden is mentioned for the first time in a deed of donation from Bishop Widelo von Minden , which can be dated to between 1115 and 1119. At this time, Count Widekind I. von Schwalenberg was court lord in Linden im Marstemgau and took part in the presence of witnesses, including Duke Lothar III. , Donations to the diocese of Minden , which Bishop Widelo confirmed. They concerned outworks and proper hearing in the no longer detectable villages Liusen, Batmere and Wall Thorpe. From around 1130 the Counts of Roden were court lords and from the 13th century the Counts of Alten were the largest landlords in the area. In 1285 the church of Saint Martin is mentioned for the first time, which was incorporated into the Marienwerder monastery in 1328 . The church was rebuilt in 1957 after being destroyed in World War II. In the vicinity of Linden there were feudal farms, first the Count of Roden, later the Welfs .
In 1652 Duke Georg Wilhelm had a pleasure and kitchen garden laid out with the kitchen garden in Linden to supply his farm with fruit and vegetables. He retained this function until the end of the Kingdom of Hanover in 1866. After that, a freight yard and residential buildings were built in its place (it was located in the area between today's streets Fössestrasse, Dieckbornstrasse and Davenstedter Strasse) . Today only the Am Küchengarten square in what is now the Linden-Mitte district is a reminder of its earlier use.
In 1688, the Oberhofmarschall Franz-Ernst von Platen acquired the estate of the von Alten family for around 12,000 Reichstaler through a contract of use. It comprised about 56 hectares of land, hunting rights, jurisdiction, various tithe , the Lindener Schäferhof as well as lands and permissions in the Lindener Glocksee, the Neustadt and the Aegidienmasch . After purchasing additional courtyards, von Platen had the 7 hectare Von Alten Garden laid out as a baroque garden, which was surrounded by a wall from 1718. In 1700, the Count von Platen acquired another 20 hectares of land and had a new road, the Leineweberstraße, built with 30 houses for the weavers' guild. He also had a smithy, beer brewery, brandy distillery, lime distillery and a wax bleaching facility set up with masters and journeymen from Italy. The count also had services held especially for his servants in a chapel built on the estate . In 1796 a school for Neu-Linden was set up in a house in Weberstrasse.
During the Seven Years' War the facilities of the city fortifications of Hanover were reactivated. In addition, external jumps such as the Georgenschanzen on Lindener Berg, built in 1761, were built . Only the inner ring of the Sternschanze was built . The west side of the Ihmeufer in Linden was also fortified to protect the bridge.
Old Linden and New Linden
Over time, the area developed into "Neu-Linden", which was administratively separate from the old village of Linden, and which also received its own night watchman, its own headmaster and its own shooting society. Neu-Linden included the houses on Weberstrasse , houses and warehouses on Blumenauer Strasse and houses on Hohe Strasse and Deisterstrasse. After the von Alten family bought back the Linden estate in 1816, the von Platen family left Linden.
The old village of Linden originally extended from the Lindener Berg to the Glocksee and Ohe on the opposite bank of the Ihme . In 1829 Glocksee and Ohe became independent towns with their own administration, but remained part of Linden in terms of church and school.
With a decree in 1826, the Royal Landdrostei Hannover decreed a border line between Alt-Linden and Neu-Linden for jurisdiction. According to the decree, Alt-Linden had a master builder and three headmasters, Neu-Linden had one headmaster and two auxiliary heads. Alt-Linden included the Lindener Berg, Kirchstrasse, Lindener Strasse, Hohe Strasse, Posthornstrasse, Blumenauer Strasse, the von Alten estate including the court, the area west of the northern Deisterstrasse from the avenue (today's Von-Alten-Allee) to the Ihmebrücke . The area east of the northern Deisterstrasse from the avenue to the Ihmebrücke, the southern remainder of the Deisterstrasse and the Weberstrasse belonged to Neu-Linden.
In 1842 the village of Linden had 3,207 inhabitants.
While Linden developed in the first quarter of the 19th century into a place of residence for the suburban villas of wealthy families from Hanover, the industry expanded in particular through the companies of Georg Egestorff . Until 1845, all employees who were brought in were housed in the area of old Lindens. Many buildings such as stables and annexes were converted into living space to accommodate them. Then began under the construction and road commission under the direction of Georg Ludwig Friedrich Laves, a planned development of Linden-Süd and Linden-Nord.
The development in the area of today's Linden-Süd began around 1845 after locomotive construction was added to the product range of the Egestorff factory (later Hanomag ). The current district of Linden-Nord, located north of the old village of Linden, was built from 1853 on the “Nedderfeld” (“Nedderfeldstrasse”). One of the first streets was Fannystraße, which was built in 1854. The “workers colony in Fannystraße”, which Ludwig Debo had built, was located next to it on a piece of land owned by Adolph Meyer . Employees of the mechanical weaving mill lived in it . The settlement between Mathildenstrasse and Fortunastrasse was demolished in 1965. Then Fannystraße was built over with two modern apartment blocks.
In 1856 the villages of Alt-Linden and Neu-Linden were merged to form the rural community of Linden. Instead of the previous master builder, the community received a community board.
Development into an industrial city
After the annexation of the Kingdom of Hanover by Prussia in 1866, Linden was the largest village in Prussia. The industrialist Johann Egestorff laid the foundation stone for the development into an industrial city at the beginning of the 19th century with lime kilns on Lindener Berg for the production of the building material lime mortar. His son Georg Egestorff , who founded a machine factory and iron foundry, later called Hanomag, followed in his footsteps . Locomotives were also manufactured here from 1846 to 1931, which had to be laboriously transported to the next siding in horse-drawn vehicles until the Altenbeken route was built in 1872.
After Egestorff's death in 1868, the factory was generously expanded by the new owner, the "railway king" Bethel Henry Strousberg . In addition to the factory on today's Göttinger Strasse , a workers' settlement with 144 houses was built, which was named "Little Romania" because of Strousberg's orders from Romania (concession for 900 km of railroad lines and the delivery of locomotives). The streets were called "Hammerstraße", "Feilenstraße" and "Zirkelstraße". The deal collapsed and Strousberg had to sell his company to a bank consortium in 1871. In 1937 the houses were demolished as Hanomag was expanding.
In 1911 the Hanomag site reached an area of 42,000 m², of which 24,000 m² were built over. Street names such as Hanomagstraße , Egestorffstraße and Strousbergstraße remind us of the great importance of the company and its owners for Linden . Since Strousberg was of Jewish origin, was the latter during the Nazi era from 1935 the name Kettler road - by Julius Kettler, first chairman and co-founder of Lower Saxony Heimatbund .
At the end of the 19th century, numerous smaller companies settled in the kitchen garden, some of which developed into a certain importance. Such as the Lindener Samtspinnerei, Cotton Milling and Mechanical Weaving Mill , the Lindener Aktien-Brauerei , two rubber factories and Deutsche Asphalt as well as a corset factory and a bed spring factory, on the premises of which the FAUST cultural center now exists.The Hannoversche Waggonfabrik (HAWA) produced railway wagons, trams, automobiles, warplanes and agricultural machinery south of the Linden train station from 1898 to 1933. Their 1915 on the Tönniesberg scale factory airfield became the first civilian airfield for Hannover and stayed until it in November 1919, this 1928 by Hanover-Vahrenwald replaced and was completely closed 1930th
In 1927 a municipal bath house was built in the kitchen garden , as many working-class families did not have their own bathroom. After its closure, the Theater am Küchengarten (TAK) moved there in 1987 .
The Linden-Fischerhof train station was set up and, from 1872, connected to the Hanover-Altenbekener railway network and the Deister railway with the branch line to Linden-Küchengarten, mainly to procure the Deister coal from the Preussag Barsinghausen mine . The station was relocated in 2006 for better connections to the tram and bus and is now called Hannover-Linden / Fischerhof . During the First World War, the Lindener Hafen was created with the connection to the Mittelland Canal via the Hanover-Linden branch canal .
Linden was a rural community and suburb of Hanover until 1885 and had 25,570 mostly Protestant residents. It was separated from Hanover by the Ihme . Linden received city rights on April 1, 1885 . The first mayor was the Hanoverian Senator Georg Lichtenberg . At the same time, the administrative district of Linden was created from the offices of Wennigsen and Linden , which was added to the district of Hanover in 1932 . In 1908, the new 17 hectare Linden main cemetery was opened in the Ricklingen and Wettbergen districts . In 1909 the municipalities of Badenstedt , Bornum , Davenstedt and Limmer and in 1913 the municipality of Ricklingen were incorporated into the city of Linden.
In 1889, by royal decree, the city received permission for the coat of arms with the red lion in front of the linden tree on a shield with 4 blue and silver horizontal stripes and a three-tower wall crown. The linden tree is reminiscent of Linden's origins when Count Wittekind and Widukind von Schwalenberg held a dish under a linden tree. The red lion was part of the coat of arms of Count von Roden.
After the incorporation
On January 1, 1920, Linden was incorporated into Hanover with around 80,000 inhabitants. From 1934 to 1936 many Linden members were members of the Socialist Front , which is considered to be one of the largest resistance movements during the Nazi era. In March 2009 the Cologne artist Gunter Demnig set a stumbling block for the Linden resistance fighter Wilhelm Bluhm in Nedderfeldtstrasse 8 .
Hanomag produced passenger cars (" Kommissbrot "), trucks and (until 1931) locomotives. During World War II it manufactured armored vehicles , artillery pieces and large-caliber ammunition. In 1943/44 a multi-storey hall was built on Göttinger Strasse, the supporting structure of which was originally intended for a submarine production hall in the north shipyard of the Kriegsmarine shipyard in Wilhelmshaven , which is now a listed building.
Hanomag was still the center of social democratic and communist resistance in Hanover against the Nazi regime after the NSDAP management had been brought into line. Here, until 1943, leaflets and newspapers were printed and distributed, celebrations and activities underground were planned on May 1st, and contacts were maintained with representatives of the parties in the underground.
After 1945 was in the Jacobstraße 10 the so-called Office Dr. Schumacher , from whom Kurt Schumacher rebuilt the SPD after the Second World War . One floor above was the office of the Communist Party of Germany , which was also rebuilt from here.
The Linden train accident occurred in Linden station on June 22, 1969 , in which an explosion of Bundeswehr ammunition killed four Bundesbahn officials and eight members of the Hanover fire brigade .
In 2012, the proportion of foreigners in Linden was over 30 percent. This makes it one of the districts with the highest proportion of foreigners in Hanover.
In 2015, Linden celebrated its 900th anniversary with events spread over the year under the motto "Linden trees on the river - Linden trees in the river".
Linden middle
Linden-Mitte is the nucleus of Linden and is bordered by the Fosse , Fössestraße and Spinnereistraße in the north, the Ihme in the east, Badenstedter Straße, Am Lindener Berge, Westschnellweg , Von-Alten-Allee and Deisterstraße in the south and the freight bypass railway in the west. The West Schnellweg divides the district into an industrial area in the west and the residential area in the east.
The center of the district is the Linden market square with the new town hall from 1899 (the old one is on Deisterstraße), the night watchman's fountain, the oldest street lamps in Hanover (popularly known as "bishop's wands"), the birthplace of the philosopher and political scientist Hannah Arendt and one on Tuesdays and weekly market on Saturdays . The Linden-Mitte district library with a large children's and youth department is housed in the new town hall. The square and its surroundings are largely shaped by Wilhelminian style houses, for example in Wittekindstrasse, Haasemannstrasse and Beethovenstrasse as well as on Pariser Platz. The Lichtenbergplatz is a square from the turn of the century in Hanover, whose adjacent houses were primarily intended to serve as a representation. Your facades are adorned with figurative and vegetable motifs and thus appear three-dimensional. The facade material was mainly red facing brick with a plaster structure. The style of the houses is based on the Weser Renaissance and Baroque styles . This does not apply to the older house No. 2, whose yellow brick surfaces with red decorative ribbons correspond more to the Hanover architecture school .
The Ihme Bridge , which has existed on the Black Bear since 1500, was for a long time the only connection between Hanover and Linden. The bridge, named after Benno Ohnesorg in 1992 , was replaced by a new building in a five-year construction phase from 2008 to 2013. This is now equipped with an elevated platform for the light rail and replaces the previous stations, which were located directly at the Black Bear.
The first grammar school in Linden was founded on Falkenstrasse in 1884, today's Helene-Lange-Schule . The IGS Linden at the foot of the Lindener Berg was founded in 1971 as the first integrated comprehensive school in Hanover.

The St. Martin's Church is the oldest church in Linden, of which only the steeple survived the Second World War undamaged. It is followed by the Von Alten Garden , which was originally laid out as a baroque garden. The Catholic parish church is St. Godehard .
On the site of the mechanical weaving mill , which was closed in 1961, the Ihme Center was built as a shopping, residential and office center in the early 1970s in the brutalist style . Adjacent to the other side of Blumenauer Strasse, a row house settlement, the Gilde Carré , was built on the former site of the Lindener Aktien-Brauerei .
The kitchen garden (formerly a kitchen garden of the Guelphs ) on the border to Linden-Nord has been redesigned. The Lindener Schützenfest is celebrated here. The Theater am Küchengarten (TAK) is located here in a former municipal bathhouse . On the Lindener Berg , the second highest natural elevation in Hanover after the Kronsberg , there is the Hanover public observatory on the elevated water reservoir and the Hanover Jazz Club opposite in a former youth center . The "Wednesday Theater" takes place in the same building. The Lindener Bergfriedhof was laid out in 1862 and decommissioned in 1965. The baroque " Kitchen Garden Pavilion " has stood here since 1914 . Since 2004, every year at the end of March / beginning of April there has been a flower festival under the motto “The Blue Wonder” during the Scilla blossom.
In the west of the west expressway nearby industrial park is located at the branch canal Linden of Linden harbor . Here are plants of the chemical industry (glue and paste production), recycling companies, metal processing companies and freight forwarders based. Since the year 2014 can be found in the field that the Federal Institute for Building, Urban Affairs and Spatial Development funded space project as a testing ground for urban development.

The main axis of the district is Limmerstrasse . There are many restaurants and shops along the shopping street, which is mainly designated as a pedestrian zone. The Ter Horst family's Apollokino, founded in 1908 , is one of the oldest suburban cinemas in Germany in a backyard . It was there that the later Cinemaxx founder Hans-Joachim Flebbe began his career. There is also the FAUST cultural center in Linden-Nord with the community radio radio flora .
Many residents in the district have a migration background. Because of its proximity to the University and the University of Hanover, it is also a preferred place of residence for students.
The Linden leisure home is the first facility of its kind in Germany. Until 2013, it housed a district library with a large children's and youth department; the holdings were transferred to the converted and expanded city library in Linden Town Hall. Bethlehem Church and Gerhard Uhlhorn Church are part of the Evangelical Lutheran Church. Parish Linden-Nord, the St. Benno Church to the Catholic community.

An annual vegetable battle takes place on the Sleeping Beauty Bridge , which connects the district with the adjacent northern part of the city .
In August 1962, the Linden thermal power station operated by the Hanover municipal utility went online. In addition to generating electricity, it represents the starting point for Hanover’s 280-kilometer district heating network (as of 2007). Initially operated with hard coal, it was switched to natural gas firing in 1990. Because of the three boiler houses with the high chimneys, the plant is nicknamed "The Three Warm Brothers". After the gutting and modernization measures were completed, a gas and steam ( CCGT ) turbine plant was put into operation in 1998 .
In Linden-Nord, one of Hanover's first bicycle streets was set up.

The municipality of Linden planned its first town hall in 1882. The location chosen was the northern part of Deisterstraße, at that time the provisional center of the city. Christoph Hehl provided the design. The building, inaugurated in 1884, was built at the junction of Deister and Ricklinger Strasse, effective in terms of urban planning on a sloping terrain. The three-storey, Gothic brick building has a trapezoidal floor plan. The lush roof landscape was almost completely destroyed in the Second World War and was not subsequently reconstructed. The sophisticated structure can still be seen today on the gallery-like third floor, as well as on the vestibule and the delicate windows of the former council chamber on the east side.
The Ahrbergviertel near the Allerweg and Deisterplatz is the cultural center of the Spanish-born residents in the Hanover region . This is reflected in the official street name ("Plaza de Rosalia"). The quarter was named after the former Fritz Ahrberg sausage factory .

history
Limmer is named after Count Konrad von Roden's Limmer Castle , which was named in 1189 and whose exact location is unknown. The name probably means “damp place”. The castle held in 1189 under Count Konrad the onslaught of King Henry VI. was standing. As a result, a count line of the Wunstorf family bore the name Limmer until they died out, while the other line was called "von Roden" after their possession, Lauenrode Castle . The Limmeraner Church of St. Nikolai, mentioned in 1268, was incorporated into the Marienwerder monastery in 1328 . It was not until 1787 that the old building was replaced by today's hall church.
Limmer was a poor village in the 14th to 15th centuries. During the Thirty Years' War it sank to an economic low, many residents had to hire out in the nearby Herrenhausen .
In the years 1685–1718, Pastor Jacobus Sackmann , who was known for his rough Low German sermons and who did not spare the nobility, worked at St. Nikolai Church . The authenticity of the traditional sermons is, however, partly controversial. There is a memorial stone for the preacher in front of the Nikolaikirche.
In 1689 Limmer had 167 inhabitants. In 1690 the Guelph sovereigns set up a brickworks, which was given up again in 1735. In 1730, asphalt lime was discovered in Limmer, which had been mined in opencast and underground mining since 1843, but whose deposits were exhausted by 1925. In 1779 the pharmacist and botanist Jakob Friedrich Ehrhart discovered a sulfur spring, over which a bath for the disabled and poor was built in 1792 . This Limmerbrunnen was well attended around 1800, but in 1828 it was surpassed by the neighboring then Hessian Bad Nenndorf . The bathing operation was not stopped until 1961. The mill hill is still preserved from the Limmer windmill built in the 18th century .
In 1808 the village fell victim to a major fire, which changed the appearance of the village significantly. Under the influence of the emerging industrialization in neighboring Linden, it lost more and more of its rural character. In 1825 Limmer had 365, in 1871 over 1,100, in 1885 already 2307 inhabitants. In 1899 the Hannoversche Gummi-Kamm-Fabrik was established in Limmer on an area of initially 60,000 m². In 1912, on the 50th anniversary of its existence, it was renamed Hannoversche Gummiwerke Excelsior and already had 3,500 employees. In 1928 it became part of Continental Gummi-Werke , which continued the plant until 1999.
On April 1, 1909, the village was incorporated into Linden, with which it was incorporated into Hanover in 1920. From the end of August 1944 to the beginning of April 1945, the subcamp Hannover-Limmer of the Neuengamme concentration camp was located in Limmer . The more than 1,000 women housed here had to work primarily at the Continental plant in Limmer.
In the 1950s, a New Apostolic Church was built at Sackmannstrasse 5 , it was closed in 2010 and demolished in 2012.

District Council
In the local elections on September 11, 2011 , the Greens became the strongest party in the district for the first time with 37.6% of the votes, and Rainer-Jörg Grube is the district mayor. The SPD became the second largest party (29.6%), the Left third largest party (11.6%). Since the SPD, contrary to the usual practice, did not want to elect Rainer-Jörg Grube as the candidate of the strongest party for district mayor, it was defeated in return in the election as his deputy. Instead, Stefan Müller was elected by the left. In June 2013, Müller switched to the SPD parliamentary group, which means that there are no clear relationships in the district council. The Linden-Limmer District Council has 21 members and meets about nine times a year in public, mostly in the Linden leisure center , and occasionally also in the parish hall of St. Nikolaikirche in Limmer.
In the local elections on September 11, 2016 , the Greens were again the strongest party with 32.2 percent of the vote, followed by the SPD with 24.5 percent and the Left with 17.9 percent. Grube was unanimously re-elected as district mayor by the committee.
Hiltrud Grote (SPD) was district mayor from January 1988 to November 1996 . She was the first female district mayor in Hanover.
