Bornum

Harry Bread Factory

Bornum is bounded in the west by the Hanover – Altenbeken railway line , in the north by the Hanover freight bypass , in the east by the Am Tönniesberg street and in the south by the Bückeburger Allee ( B 65 ).

There is no retail store in the residential area west of Bornumer Strasse. The S-Bahn station located here as well as two bus lines provide connections with public transport. In the industrial area to the east on the Tönniesberg are the Hanover wholesale market and a bread factory owned by Harry (originated from the Hannoversche Brotfabrik AG , Habag for short), which was taken over in 1929 . Fire and rescue station 4 of the Hanoverian professional fire brigade is also located here, and is also the location of the volunteer fire brigades Bornum and Ricklingen.

Bornum's name originated from Born and Heim . It was first mentioned in a document in 1130 and consisted of 14 farms for almost the entire Middle Ages. During the Seven Years' War in 1757 French troops camped near the town. From 1850 the settlements grew. In 1890 the Körtingsdorf colony was established in Bornum , which today belongs to Badenstedt . In 1909 Bornum, with a population of 865 at that time, was incorporated into Linden and, with its incorporation, came to the city of Hanover in 1920.

Mühlenberg

Mühlenberg Ecumenical Church Center

Mühlenberg is located on the elongated hill of the same name. The eponymous former windmill is already on the south side of the hill in the Wettbergen district. The district is bordered in the north by Bückeburger Allee ( B 65 ), in the east by Hamelner Chaussee ( B 217 ), in the south by IGS Mühlenberg and Pater-Kolbe-Gang and in the west by the city limits of Empelde .

The Mühlenberg district was built in the 1960s initially with terraced houses and for the time it was very modern and open, surrounded by extensive green spaces, four-story owner-occupied and rented apartments, which were followed by numerous high-rise buildings in the style of large housing estates in the 1970s .

After Mühlenberg was quite popular in the early years as a modern, new urban district in the country and attracted many local middle-class families, the social fabric in parts of the district tipped over in the 1980s, and this part of the district has developed into a social hotspot .

The outskirts of the city with a pond surrounded by park-like green areas and the complex infrastructure with a large integrated comprehensive school for around 2000 pupils, which is home to the White Rose leisure home , youth center , city library, district sports facility and other facilities, as well as a relatively large sports club, a large lane golf course, Light rail and bus station , an ecumenical church center as well as a pedestrian zone with many shops and a market place enhance the residential value and quality of life of the district. There are also several daycare centers, a primary school and various social offers; a playhouse, a socially supported neighborhood meeting place with lunch, help with homework and an internet cafe and a comprehensive advisory infrastructure for migrants. There are also two large administration buildings of the e.on Group in the Mühlenberg district .

In 2016, around 7,000 people lived in Mühlenberg, around 56% of them with a migration background from over 50 nations.

Oberricklingen

Houses in Schnabelstrasse, Oberricklingen

Oberricklingen is an almost square area with an edge length of about one kilometer. In the north, the Bückeburger Allee ( B 65 ), which has been developed into an expressway free of intersections, delimits the district from the Ricklinger industrial area. In the east, the Frankfurter Allee ( B 6 , B 3 ), which connects the Ricklinger Kreisel and Landwehrkreisel (B 6), separates the old Ricklingen (unofficially also called Unterricklingen or Alt-Ricklingen to differentiate from Oberricklingen). In the south, the large area of ​​the Ricklinger Friedhof closes off the district and in the south-west, Bergfeldstrasse on the neighboring district of Wettbergen. In the west, the Hamelner Chaussee ( B 217 ) separates the district from the neighboring Mühlenberg.

Documents date around the year 1200 in which for the first time Groten Ricklinge and Lutteken Ricklinge (large and small Ricklingen), with large Ricklingen being today's (old) Ricklingen. Little Ricklingen, on the other hand, is located on the Boven dem Ypolle, the Tönniesberg, named after a chapel of St. Antonius that used to be located there. “Riclinge minor lay boven dem Ypolle” “not far from Ricklingen, towards Bornum”, “lutken ricklinge by sunte antonies” (Klein Ricklingen near Sankt Antonius); "Little Ricklingen at the Ihlpohl". The Ihlpohl or Ilpol was a pond-like widening of a tributary of the foot . Medical leeches were kept in the Ihlpohl . It was (as of 1781) in the western end of the saddle between Lindener Berg and Tönniesberg, northeast of the village of Bornum, where the easternmost tip of Badenstadt is today , southwest of the street Am Ihlpohl .

In a rapid upswing as a result of industrialization, today's Oberricklingen emerged as a housing estate for workers for Linden to the north , into which Oberricklingen was incorporated together with Ricklingen in 1913, until Linden was incorporated into Hanover seven years later. During the Second World War , Oberricklingen suffered severe damage due to its proximity to the railway systems.

Oberricklingen can only be reached via a few streets, namely Göttinger Chaussee, Ricklinger Stadtweg, Wallensteinstraße, Südstrücken and Am Sauerwinkel, which relieves large parts of through traffic. The Wallensteinstrasse, which runs from west to east, forms the main street of the district, here is the market square. The route of the light rail runs along the street, lines 3 and 7 serve three stops here. The tram line 17 and the Regiobus lines 360, 363 and 365 also end at the Wallensteinstraße stop . The RegioSprinter line 300 runs from here to Hanover's central bus station and Pattensen .

Hanover South Tax Office

Oberricklingen is characterized in the south and west by single-family houses and terraced houses with large gardens. Multi-family houses and perimeter blocks dominate in the northeast. Almost all of the buildings date from the reconstruction period after the Second World War. In the district there is the Catholic St. Augustine Church and the Evangelical Lutheran St. Thomas Church. The New Apostolic Church was sold and is now used as a studio. The district has three schools: the Johannes-Keppler-Realschule, the elementary school Wilhelm-Busch-Schule and the special needs school Martin-Luther-King-Schule. The tax offices of Hanover-South and Hanover-Land I are housed in the two high-rise buildings in Oberrickling.

Ricklingen

Maria Magdalenen Church

The Ricklingen district is located in the east of the district of the same name. It can be reached via three tram lines and three S-Bahn lines from the city center. Ricklingen is bounded on the north by the embankment of the railway line towards Weetzen / Hameln and freight bypass rail, in the east of the line-mash, to the south by Ricklinger wood and the west by the Frankfurter Allee, as three federal road until the construction of the A 7 a Section of the main north-south traffic axis through Hanover. (In the north, Ricklingen and its industrial area extends further west to Tönniesberg at the north-west corner of Oberricklingen.) The center of the district is Schünemannplatz. The weekly market takes place on Thursdays on August-Holweg-Platz to the north . The Ricklingen leisure center houses the citizens' office and the city ​​library and is a meeting place in Hanover's carnival . The ev.-luth. Michaelis parish has had a neo-Gothic church on Stammestrasse since 1877 and since July 1, 2009 has again included the entire district. From 1962 to 2009, the now reintegrated Maria Magdalenen parish was to the west of Ricklinger Stadtweg. The Catholic Church of St. Monika has been used as a monastery church by the Vinzentinerinnen since 2008 , it was built in 1930 as St. Augustine's Church from a former inn and was later renamed St. Monika. The Ricklinger Kiesteiche southeast of the center offer the Hanoverians local recreation opportunities.

In the old rural village center is the Edelhof chapel from the 14th century with glass paintings by Charles Crodel (1960). During the Thirty Years War , Tilly camped in Wrampenhof on Düsternstrasse (there is now a retirement home). On August 28, 1905, the first 400-meter cinder track for athletes was inaugurated in Ricklingen . However, due to its unfavorable location, it was hardly used. The village of Ricklingen was incorporated into the then city of Linden in 1913 and with this in 1920 into the city of Hanover. The last community leader was Karl Kreipe (born November 17, 1857 in Linden, † July 17, 1937 in Braunschweig). The Kreipeweg (previously part of Beekestrasse) in Ricklingen was named after him in 1977. From 1919 to 1923, the factory airport of the Hanoverian Waggonfabrik on Tönniesberg was Hanover's first civil airport . In 1926 a severe typhus epidemic raged across Hanover due to contamination in the Ricklinger waterworks. In February 1946, a flood on the Leine caused a flood in Ricklingen. High water marks on the rectory on Pfarrstrasse, on Beekestrasse 55, on Ricklinger Stadtweg 46 and on Deichtor in Düsternstrasse bear witness to this . As a result, a flood protection dike was built with a dyke gate that has held back floods several times. With a dike adjoining that dike with dyke slits and a new wall at Michaelisfriedhof , flood protection was expanded in 2013 and 2014 in the southeast of Ricklingen, northwest of the river Ihme, which is called Beeke here, in order to counter future floods of the century . In the Telefunken building on Göttinger Chaussee, Walter Bruch developed the PAL color television system in 1962 , with which color television was introduced in Germany from 1967 .

Two well-known rugby clubs are based in Ricklingen , the German Rugby Club Hanover 1905 and 08 Ricklingen. Both clubs have won the German rugby union championships in Germany several times . The DRC Hanover won the championship in 1988, annually from 1998 to 2002 and 2005. 08 Ricklingen won the German championship in 1950, 1960 and 1974. The district also has well-known football clubs: TuS Ricklingen and Sportfreunde Ricklingen , who played in the regional league from 1996 to 1999 .

Geographical location

Wettbergen borders on the Mühlenberg district to the north (IGS Mühlenberg and Pater-Kolbe-Gang), in the north-west on Oberricklingen (Bergfeldstrasse, Stadtfriedhof Ricklingen and In der Rehre), in the south the Ihme forms the city limits of Hanover with Hemmingen, in the west the border runs between Hanover and Ronnenberg through the Feldmark.

history

Wettbergen was first mentioned in 1055. The name comes from the Old Saxon word Hvat ( de : sharp ) and means something like village on a steep slope . It was the ancestral seat of the noble von Wettberg family , which died out in Lower Saxony in the 17th century.

The Hamelner Chaussee ( B 217 ) separates the old town center, in which a village-like structure has been preserved, from the new development area Wettbergen-West . A settlement with terraced houses, single-family houses and four-storey apartment buildings was built here in the 1980s and 1990s. This area was originally intended for an expansion of the Mühlenberg district. Since the Mühlenberg had a very bad reputation as a highly problematic social hotspot and there was no longer any need for large housing estates, but for single-family houses close to the city, it was assigned to the bourgeois structured district of Wettbergen.

In addition to the Wettbergen elementary school and the Henning-von-Tresckow elementary school, there are three very large comprehensive schools with over 1500 pupils each within a radius of less than 3 km from the district: the Leonore-Goldschmidt-School in Mühlenberg, the Carl-Friedrich-Gauß -School in Hemmingen and the Marie Curie School in Ronnenberg. Wettbergen has been the terminus of tram lines 3 and 7 since 1999 .

The voluntary fire brigade Wettbergen is responsible for NBC protection in the specialist group concept of the Hanover fire brigade . It was founded on May 1st, 1881 by 20 farmers and craftsmen. The soccer team of TuS Wettbergen plays in the district league Hanover (season 2016/17).

Incorporations

Wettbergen was incorporated into Hanover on March 1, 1974 as part of the Lower Saxony municipal reform.

Wettbergen coat of arms

The design of the municipal coat of arms of Wettbergen comes from the heraldist and graphic artist Alfred Brecht , who designed all the coats of arms in the Hanover region. In the meetings of April 26th and September 8th, 1962, the municipal council unanimously approved the draft created by the heraldist Alfred Brecht based on the local history and the original form of the noble coat of arms of the Lords of Wettbergen.

Ricklingen coat of arms
Blazon : "In red over a golden mountain , in it a blue wavy band , a flying silver bat with a wolf's head ."
Justification of the coat of arms: The golden mountain and the blue wavy band indicate the Wettberger Berg and the Hirtenbach. The flying silver bat with the wolf's head honors the noble family of those von Wettbergen . The colors red: silver also symbolize the diocese of Minden and the colors blue: gold the supremacy of the Welfenhaus .
