The Löbtauer road is about 1.6 km long city road in Dresden . It connects the districts of Friedrichstadt and Löbtau with each other and, together with the traffic trains Weißeritzstraße and Tharandter Straße, is an important axis between Dresden city center and the southwestern districts as well as the places outside Dresden in the Döhlen basin .
course
The street continues the course of the Weisseritzstraße, which ends at Koreanischer Platz (intersection with Schäferstraße and Schweriner Straße) in Friedrichstadt, to the southwest. Shortly after the Koreanischer Platz, it crosses under the two connecting curves of the Berlin-Dresden railway that ends here on the Děčín – Dresden-Neustadt railway line . After the intersection with Fröbelstraße and the Cottaer Straße public transport stop behind it, the directional lanes, which were previously separated by a median, will be brought together again. Löbtauer Straße now runs through the southeast of Friedrichstadt. At the intersection with Hirschfelder Strasse and Bodelschwinghstrasse, it changes to Löbtauer Flur.
Then Löbtauer Strasse is part of the Löbtau traffic junction. The confluent Wernerstraße connects to Kesselsdorfer Straße towards Wölfnitz and Naußlitz . About Emerich-Ambros-Ufer and Columbus street is following the on Löbtauer bridge -run state road 173 towards Cotta and Gorbitz . Between Emerich-Ambros-Ufer and Kesselsdorfer Straße, Löbtauer Straße is classified as State Road 194 .
At the intersection with Kesselsdorfer and Freiberger Strasse , it turns into Tharandter Strasse, which continues in the direction of Plauen , Dölzschen and Freital .
history
The path between Dresden's Friedrichstadt and the community of Löbtau, which was independent until 1903, was initially called Vor dem Löbtauer Schlag . The Löbtauer Schlag was located near today's Schäferstrasse and was the collection point for local taxes. It was also called Schäferschlag after the sheep farm there , which is why the name Vor dem Schäferschlag was also used for the path.
The Löbtauer Straße was divided into two by the city limits until 1903, the urban section was named Löbtauer Straße in 1940, the adjoining part on Löbtauer Flur was again called Dresdner Straße from 1877 onwards. With the incorporation of Löbtau, the entire street was given its current name.
Until the end of the 19th century, Löbtauer Straße ran parallel to Weißeritz , the lower course of which was not re-canalized outside the city center until 1891 to 1893 in order to gain building land and space for the widening of the railway line from the main train station to Dresden-Neustadt . The settlement of the first industrial companies and the associated construction of apartment buildings along Löbtauer Strasse and the surrounding area had already begun.
On July 3, 1898, a horse-drawn tram was opened from Weißeritzstrasse via Löbtauer / Dresdner and Plauensche Strasse (Tharandter Strasse) to Bienertmühle . The following year it was switched to electrical operation.
The square formed by Columbusstrasse, Eichendorffstrasse and Löbtauer Strasse in Löbtau was called "Columbusplatz" (previously Dresdner Platz). Although the course of the streets has not been changed, the square no longer appears as such today, also due to the lack of structural design.
The air raids on Dresden in February 1945 suffered numerous damage to the buildings and trams along Löbtauer Strasse. While the tram was able to run again in good time, most of the gaps and fallow areas in the streetscape have only been removed again since 1990. After 2000, the section between Schäferstrasse and Fröbelstrasse was expanded to today's street width in connection with the connection from Coventrystrasse / Bramschtunnel via Fröbelstrasse.
During the floods in 2002 , the Weißeritz overflowed its banks, the water followed the original river bed along Löbtauer Straße into the city center. The Löbtauer Strasse bridge in the "Weißeritzknick" was badly damaged and was replaced by a new building. Between Cottaer and Kesselsdorfer Strasse, due to the flood of August 12, 2002, until the reopening after all flood damage had been repaired in February 2007, no trams were possible.
Development
Between today Schäferstraße and Berlin street, the urban sheep that was the shepherd strike gave her name and was demolished in 1900's. In its place, the Friedrichstadt town hall was built between 1907 and 1908 according to plans by Hans Erlwein . The simple building with the address Löbtauer Straße 2 was the location of various municipal facilities, including a police station, the municipal reporting office and a branch of the Stadtsparkasse. The upper floors were inhabited. After being damaged during the air raids, the building was preserved and continued to be used; due to construction defects, it has been empty since the late 1980s.
Between 1991 and 1994 an office complex was built between Berliner Straße and the railway bridge, which was used by the Dresden District Court until 2012 . Until then, this area was largely undeveloped. The SG Dynamo Dresden's “Fan House” has been located opposite since 2006 ; a park was created on this side of the street in 2013 between Löbtauer, Schweriner and Roßthaler Strasse instead of a wasteland. In the area of the railway line, the municipal road building yard existed since 1893, of which the building yard road running there reminds us. The remaining area in the track triangle of the two railway lines is now designated as a parking lot for the Mitte power plant .
After crossing under the railway line, the development of Löbtauer Straße up to Fröbelstraße is looser and less urban, with areas for businesses and supplies predominating. Between Bauhofstrasse, Floßhofstrasse and Fröbelstrasse there was an almost closed residential area until the Second World War. Individual buildings from this period have been preserved and have been supplemented by new buildings since the 2010s. At Löbtauer Strasse 29 (corner of Fröbelstrasse), a workers' dormitory was built in the 1980s for the construction of the Hotel Bellevue , where the city's first newly approved brothel was operated in 1990 . After a fire in the late 1990s, the prefabricated building was empty and was demolished in 2010. The area is reserved for social housing by the municipal housing association.
Medical facilities have been located between today's Fröbelstrasse and Altonaer Strasse in the direction of Freiberger Strasse since the middle of the 19th century. There was a care facility for the mentally and physically handicapped, from which in 1888 the “Städtische Siechhaus” emerged. The continuously expanding complex at Löbtauer Straße 31/33 consisted of five- to six-storey individual buildings and a park in between. It was called the municipal sanatorium and nursing home from 1902 and the city hospital Löbtauer Strasse from 1930 , and was partially destroyed in 1945. After partial reconstruction, it was again a municipal nursing home from 1953. It has been privately run since 1990, the listed buildings have been renovated and supplemented with extensions and new buildings.
At the corner of Cottaer Straße there is an office complex built after 1990. The area between Cottaer and Altonaer Straße has been increasingly used for living again since the end of the 2010s. A new residential building was built on the corner of Cottaer Strasse opposite the office building, and the “Carreé Löbtau” with around 150 apartments on the corner of Altonaer Strasse. Previously existing ruinous old buildings were demolished there. At the intersection of Altonaer Straße, the premises of the Saxon Serum Factory in Dresden were located in the buildings of the former Gambrinus brewery until 1923 . During the GDR era, the area was used by the VEB Verkehrskombinat Dresden.
The premises of the clutch factory in Dresden stretches between Altonaer and Hirschfelder Strasse, and towards Löbtauer Strasse there is a long, two-storey functional building, the staircases of which are designed with molded concrete blocks. The company's history goes back to the 19th century. The site on Löbtauer Straße was originally just one of five plants in Dresden and Freital.
The “Alpenschänke”, also known as the “pump house”, was located directly on the city limits, later at the corner of Bodelschwinghstrasse. There the import duties to Dresden were raised, there was also the inn in the house, which gave it its name, as well as a branch of the city stables . In 1905 the building was demolished, today the area is undeveloped. The Marstall was still located on Löbtauer Straße until the 1930s. The area next to it (Löbtauer Straße 70) opposite the coupling plant has been the administrative seat of the municipal cemetery and burial system since 1951.
On the site between Wernerstraße and Weißeritz to the left of Löbtauer Straße, the Lobeck chocolate factory had its production facility from 1862 to the 1930s. Later, a branch of the Sachsenwerk produced electrical machines at this location. In 1999 a start-up and commercial center (Löbtauer Straße 67) was built on the area.
Between Weißeritz and Kesselsdorfer Strasse in Löbtau, Löbtauer Strasse was again increasingly built on with residential and commercial buildings. The last remaining building is located at Columbusstraße 2 on what was then Columbusplatz. Löbtauer Straße is no longer built on in this area, also due to the demolition of the last remaining buildings required for the construction of the Löbtauer Bridge.
traffic

The tram route from Friedrichstadt to Löbtau runs along Löbtauer Straße . At the intersection of Cottaer Straße, the Friedrichstadt – Cotta – Wölfnitz line, built in the 1920s, branches off. The route ends on Kesselsdorfer Straße at the connection Postplatz –Wölfnitz via Freiberger Straße. The continuation via Tharandter Strasse in the direction of Plauen no longer exists. Stops exist at Koreanischer Platz, Cottaer Strasse and Wernerstrasse. These are served by tram lines 2 and 6 of the Dresdner Verkehrsbetriebe .
The section of road between Koreanischer Platz and Froebelstrasse is used by around 22,500 vehicles every day. Between Fröbelstrasse and Kesselsdorfer Strasse, the traffic load is significantly lower with around 15,000 vehicles per day. The proportion of heavy goods traffic is 2 to 4 percent. The Löbtauer Straße is almost completely passable with four lanes, between Koreanischer Platz and Fröbelstraße there are two marked lanes in each direction, the tram has its own track. From Fröbelstrasse, it is run on the lane in mixed traffic.
