The Langhansstraße ( ) in Berlin-Weissensee that was created before the year 1874, 1878 experienced a union with Traugott road and Otzenstraße . It was previously limited to the part between Gustav-Adolf-Strasse and Roelckestrasse .
Origin of name
The street was named after the administrator of the Weißensee manor Johann Eduard Langhans (* 1835 in Hamburg, † after 1905). The street is located in the Gründerviertel - an area in Berlin-Weißensee, whose streets and squares are named after people who made outstanding contributions to the development and expansion of Weißensee during the founding period .
Course of the road and history
It is an inner-city residential street with small businesses and mostly has old buildings. The traffic volume is moderate, the tram passes through it, during the day the M 13 follows every 10 minutes and the line 12 every 20 minutes. Langhansstraße connects Prenzlauer Promenade southeast with Antonplatz . From 1875 to 1878 the street section from Antonplatz to Roelckestraße was called Traugottstraße , and the western part from Gustav-Adolf-Straße to Heinersdorfer Straße was called Otzenstraße . When the Langhansstraße was extended beyond Heinersdorfer Straße to Prenzlauer Promenade, still needs to be clarified. Since 1884, a horse-drawn tram line of the Neue Berliner Pferdebahn ran through the street that is now used by lines 12 and M13 of the Berlin tram .
In the 1920s, entire rows of houses with inexpensive living space were built on the northeast side of the street. On the opposite side of the street, businesses like a chocolate factory (later the “Elfe” confectionery factory) and many small workshops had settled down.
