history

The street In der Vahr was named after the district. It used to be part of Vahrer Strasse.

development

Here was the southern border of the Hollerland. The Hollerland cultural landscape had its northern border on the Wümme . The borders of the Hollerland were secured to the south and south-west as a Landwehr around the village of Osterholz on Vahrer Fleth (can be seen today on the street Vahrer Straße - In der Vahr - Bürgermeister-Spitta-Allee). The Vahrer Fleet is still in the middle of the road and only partially piped. The area of ​​the Vahr was undeveloped until 1956.

The Vahr (1167 Vare , later Voren ; Fuhren = furrow) is a very young part of Bremen. The garden city of Vahr was planned by Ernst May ( Neue Heimat , Hamburg) for Gewoba from 1956 ; Later on, the architects Max Säum and Günther Hafemann (both from Bremen) joined in as planners. After that, the residential building project was implemented until around 1960. In the Vahr from 1954 to 1964 around 14,000 u. a. Socially supported apartments built in the large housing estate for over 33,000 residents. Gewoba was the client for many apartments .

The Vahr barracks was built on the street in 1938 ; this is where the Bremen police headquarters have been since 1999 . In 1958 and 1962 the primary and secondary school was built.

The new line 1 ran from 1967 between Arsterdamm , Mitte, Vahr and Blockdiek on new tram routes.

Today the Bremen tram touches the street with line 1 ( Huchting - Mahndorf ).
