Lübeck-St. Lorenz

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

St. Lorenz is a district of Lübeck west of the Holsten Gate and northwest of the city center, which politically and legally includes the districts of Sankt Lorenz Nord (north of the railway) and Sankt Lorenz Süd (south of the railway on the left bank of the Trave and Stadtgraben outside the ramparts). As with the other two historic districts of St. Jürgen and St. Gertrud, the suburban church St. Lorenz on Steinrader Weg, which dates back to the chapel of a plague cemetery from the 16th century, is named after it. The district includes the districts of St. Lorenz Nord Groß-Steinrade / Schönböcken (23), Dornbreite (24), Holstentor Nord (04) and Falkenfeld / Vorwerk (05). St. Lorenz Süd (03) is not divided into city districts.

location

Because of its location in the west of Lübeck in front of the Holstentor, towards Holstein , the area was also called Holstenfeld before the intensive development in the course of Lübeck's industrialization at the end of the 19th century .

The Teerhofinsel originally belonged to St. Gertrud and only came to St. Lorenz in 1884 after the Travedurchstich.

history

Detail of the police station

The acquisition of the outer areas to the west of the old town took place later than those to the east. Initially, the western bank of the Trave was the border with Holstein. It was only with the Lübeck Imperial Freedom Letter of 1226 that the narrow strip up to the streams of Paddelügge and Krempelsdorf was added to the urban area. Vorwerk was acquired around 1250. With this land acquisition west of the city, a tendency became clear that continued through the next centuries. In 1255 the people of Lübeck fought against the robber barons of Buchwaldt from Holstein with military means , but actually they preferred to “buy out” these families, not only for the safety of the young city, but also for investments in times of this rapid rise to the trading power of the Baltic Sea region. In the fight against these robber barons, peace alliances were concluded with the Counts of Holstein several times.

For centuries, the area in front of the Holsten Gate, the Holstenfeld, was essentially used as a common pasture, also known as "Stadt Freiheit", for the cattle kept in the old town, which were herded to pasture here during the day. In addition, two roads led from the Holstentor into the Holstein region, the Lübsche Trade to Segeberg and on to the North Sea , the other to Plön . The flat, loamy land contained a few moist hollows that had been dug to become fish ponds. The street names in St. Lorenz Süd such as "Am Retteich" or "Karpfenstraße" still bear witness to this today.

With the relocation of the main train station from the Holstentor to the current location, the Holstenfeld was cut up by the new, direct Hamburg railway line into the current districts of St. Lorenz North and South. A second cut was made in the 1930s with the construction of the A1 Hamburg - Lübeck. These two modern traffic axes and their connections to the city and the port have influenced and shaped the appearance and development of the city districts since their formation.

During the Second World War, the St. Lorenz Nord district was also hit by the air raid on Lübeck on Palm Sunday night in 1942. The Warendorpstrasse bunker is one of three preserved high bunkers that have been preserved as typical aerial warfare architecture in the district.

Groß Steinrade is a former Lübsches estate. The first owner named in 1306 was Marquard von Sandberg , who sold Groß Steinrade and Eckhorst to Dietrich von Ahlen , a citizen of Lübeck . Later there were frequent changes of ownership (v. Wickede, v. Calven, v. Brömbsen, etc.) until the estate came to Henning von Rumohr in 1732 . This family remained in possession of the estate until the death of the last Rumohr, General Detlev von Rumohr († 1961). The house and yard have meanwhile been torn down; the approximately 150 hectare forest property is given to the federal government and is used as a desert area military training area from 1965 onwards.

On September 24, 1921, incorporated into Lübeck.

Main article: Lübeck Schönböcken

Former lübsches estate. The Lübeck councilman Gerhard von Bremen is named as the first owner in 1271 ; later frequent changes of ownership ( v. Warendorp, v.Ahlen, v.Stiten, v.Mokerke etc. ). In the Lübeck combing book (1316–1338) listed as a sconeboke with 9 houses. Well dissolved and owned by the City of Lübeck from 1926. The mansion was used as a retirement home until 2007. ( At an angle )

Vorwerk

Vorwerker Friedhof, design by Erwin Barth , October 1906

In the Lübeck combing book (1316–1338) listed as a droghevorwerk with 20 houses. Incorporated into Lübeck on April 1, 1913; Scheduled settlement from 1921.

The Vorwerker Friedhof is the largest in Lübeck with 53 hectares and was opened in 1907. It was designed by Erwin Barth as a park with avenues, hedges, forest and seating areas. It has memorials and war cemeteries as a special feature.

District redevelopment

While the area between the main train station and the Holstentor is now developing independently as an expansion area and access to the old town island , albeit with decades of delay, and is also attractive as a residential area in its side streets close to the city, exist in the north-western part of St. Lorenz-Süd There are certainly problems and areas of tension along the railway line. St. Lorenz-Süd is therefore included in the Social City funding program and has an active neighborhood management system .

In addition, the city of Lübeck was able to keep the Drägerwerk site in the district. To do this, a public road had to be sold to the Drägerwerk that cut across the factory premises. This led to a reorganization of the traffic flows and traffic axes in St. Lorenz-Süd, which was only completed after the expansion and electrification of the Hamburg-Lübeck railway line in 2008 and which made it necessary to demolish and build new road bridges over the railway line.

Plans are in place to build a pedestrian bridge over the city moat on a new access axis from the main station through the linden arcades to the music and congress hall and the Becker pit in Lübeck's old town.

Buildings

port

The port of Lübeck is a generic term for all port facilities that are located on the lower reaches of the Trave from Lübeck's old town to Travemünde . While the economic importance of the ports located in the old town has continuously decreased, the Vorwerker Hafen with the Nordlandkai in the St. Lorenz-Nord district is one of the pulsating heart of the Lübeck port, which was connected in 2007 with the completion of the bridge over the Trave the expansion of the north bypass will improve. The Vorwerker Hafen is operated by the Lübeck port company. According to the plans of the port company, it is to be expanded by the area on the Teerhof Island . To do this, it is necessary to fill the old arm of the Trave in between.

Fire and Police Station

Former guards

The establishment of its own fire and police station made the steady growth of the suburb necessary . Their building ensemble was put into operation in 1902. The relocation of the Lübeck main station, its marshalling yard and freight yard to the suburbs, the Drägerwerk, the barracks of the fusiliers of the 2nd Hanseatic and from 1897 the 2nd battalion of the Lübeck 3rd Hanseatic Infantry Regiment No. 162 as well as the establishment of a substation of the municipal power station for their supply increased the importance of the district. While the fire station is out of order today, the "Feuerwerk" restaurant is located in the former vehicle hall, the police station is still in operation today. Compared to 1902, however, it takes up considerably more space. As a result, the former “main” entrance is no longer used as such.

Central Station

Lübeck Central Station

The Lübeck main station (architect Fritz Klingholz ) is, together with the ZOB, the central traffic junction of the public transport operated by Lübeck city traffic in the Hanseatic city. The extensive renovation was completed in 2007. In terms of urban planning, the relocation of the main train station from the Holstentor to its current location at the beginning of the 20th century caused a problem because it meant that the gap in the connection between the train station and the old town as the center could not be closed for 100 years, unlike in other cities. This is partly due to the intervening waterways of the Stadtgraben ( Puppenbrücke ), the Lübeck ramparts of the city fortifications, which are particularly extensive in the area of ​​the Holsten Gate, and the further course of the Trave in front of the old town.

Lohmühle Stadium

The Lübeck stadium Lohmühle is the home of VfB Lübeck , at whose home games the district between the main station and the stadium directly at the Lübeck-Mitte exit of the A1, the colors green and white clearly dominate. It holds 17,869 people and has 5,048 seats and 11,250 standing places. 4,268 seats are covered. In addition, the stadium has 22 boxes with a total of 220 seats.

St. Lorenz Church

The St. Lorenz Church had existed since 1661. The population, which increased enormously from the end of the 19th century, forced a new building. One of the driving forces behind the construction of the new church in the same place was Johannes Bernhard . The main pastor inaugurated the new church on May 6, 1900. The construction of the new church in the district was primarily thanks to the investment of time , money and influence of Senator Friedrich Heinrich Bertling .

Luther Church

The Luther Church on Moislinger Allee was the place where one of Lübeck's martyrs worked and is now a memorial.

Linden arcades

The Lindenarcaden are a new service center between the train station and Lindenplatz with retail stores such as Saturn, banks, insurance companies and a sports and wellness center.

Bellevue castle

For the Lübeck merchant Hieronymus Küsel, the city architect Johann Adam Soherr built the Bellevue palace on Einsiedelstrasse from 1754 to 1756 in the Rococo style , which was surrounded by an elaborately designed garden. An avenue led to the Trave. The house with two gatehouses is owned by the family of a Lübeck merchant.

Salmon weir

On behalf of the Lübeck citizenship, city architect Johann Adam Soherr built the Lachswehr garden restaurant on the Alte Trave , a dead arm of the river, in 1771 . There was already a jug here in the 15th century.

German Pension Insurance North

The German pension insurance North is headquartered in a star-shaped building with green area and water basins in a cul the brick street opposite the swimming pool St. Lawrence. The building was planned and built by the architect Günter Behnisch .
