history

Surname

The Kulenkampffallee was named in 1957 after the old Bremen merchant family from which u. a. the co-founder of the North German Lloyd (NDL) Gustav Kulenkampff (1811–1878), the wool merchant Heinrich Kulenkampff (1857–1926), the director of the North German Lloyd Johannes Kulenkampff (1901–1987), but also the composer and conductor Gustav Kulenkampff , the physicist Helmuth Kulenkampff (1895–1971) and the television presenter Hans-Joachim Kulenkampff (1921–1998) come from.

development

Neu-Schwachhausen was not built on with multi-storey rental houses until after the Second World War in the 1960s / 1970s. a. by the Bremer Beamtenbaugesellschaft (BBG) and the Bremer Schoss . The district had 5723 inhabitants (2009). The Sparer-Dank residential complexes on the corner of Koenenkampstrasse from Bremer Schoss from 1961 to 1966 based on plans by Gerhard Müller-Menckens , Friedrich Heuer and Gunter Müller are among the most important buildings in Bremen.

traffic

The Bremen tram terminus of the same name has been located in the western area of ​​Kulenkampffallee since 1960 . From here a tram line ran to the airport until 1998, initially as line 15, renamed as line 5 in 1967. From 1998, the terminal was served by two alternate lines (line 5 to Huckelriede and line 8 to Huchting), which, however, did not work well . Since 2002 only line 8 has been running via Domsheide to Huchting, since 2006 it has been shortened to the main station in the evenings and on Sundays and then back again in a loop via Brill - Westerstraße - Domsheide. A curiosity occurred between October 2015 and October 2016, when the trams in this area only ran on weekends due to a lack of vehicles; they were replaced by buses Monday to Friday.

The eastern end of Kulenkampffallee has been served by the tram since 1959. Line 6 has been running here since 1967, and the airport has been served from here since 1998.

In local transport in Bremen, bus line 22 (Kattenturm-Mitte ↔ Universität-Ost) runs through the street in the western section.
