history

Today's Kurz-Kamp-Straße was already known at the time of the Electorate of Hanover and was still used as a dirt road around 1780 . But it was not until the late founding period of the German Empire that the street was named after the local field name in 1907 .

At the time of National Socialism and during the Second World War , a camp of barracks was set up for the surviving victims of the air raids on Hanover in 1941 at the eastern end of Kurz-Kamp-Strasse and in the area of ​​Hartenbrakenstrasse . and there - before 1943 - the square called Südplatz was laid out on the street and named after its location.

After the war, with the approval of the British military authorities, the barracks camp, which had been largely destroyed, was rebuilt as a “short-fight colony ” in the form of so-called “ Nissen huts ”, and until 1956 it was used as emergency accommodation for entire families for up to a decade.

Finally, it was on the short-Kamp-road - similar to those in the Einstein Street and Emil Nolde way in the years 1955 to 1956 by the architect Friedrich Lindau built Short-Kamp settlement - at the address Short-Kamp-Strasse 13 –20 built a row of connected shops belonging to the settlement . One of these " clinker buildings erected there marks the entrance to the quarter with its protruding gable of the upper floor, which is twisted at right angles ."

Also in 1956 the Südplatz was abolished and part of the Kurz-Kamp-Straße.

On December 7, 1963, Bishop Heinrich Maria Janssen consecrated the Heilig-Geist-Kirche , which had been built on Kurz-Kamp-Strasse, and at the same time elevated the Catholic community to a parish .
