history
Surname
The street was named in 1983 after Konrad Adenauer (1876-1967), lawyer, politician ( German Center Party , CDU ), from 1949 to 1963 first Federal Chancellor of the Federal Republic of Germany. From 1917 to 1933 he was Lord Mayor of Cologne, from 1918 a member of the Prussian Manor House and from 1921 to 1933 President of the Prussian State Council as well as 1945 co-founder of the CDU and its chairman from 1950 to 1966.
development
Until the early 1980s, the main route in the city center ran from Meyerstraße via Bahnhofstraße, Kämmererplatz and Poststraße to Karl-Olfers-Platz; Bundesstrasse 73 began at Kämmererplatz as the traditional main route to Hamburg. The street was two-lane in the inner city area and was considered to be congested. The new four-lane route was therefore laid out by 1983. At the same time, a new bus station was set up at the station; Poststrasse was tied off at Karl-Olfers-Platz.
In terms of traffic, the street is reached by bus lines 1002 to 1008, 1010 1018 1020 1021 1023 1024 and 1027 of the KVG at the train station / ZOB and by the regional train RB 33 and the Re 5 at the train station.
