Overview map with the commercial areas

The Hannover-Linden branch canal branches off from the Mittelland Canal in Seelze at km 149.6 south and leads in a south-easterly direction to the Linden harbor lock . The lock at km 9.5 raises the canal level by 7.80 m to the height of the harbor basin of 58.1  m above sea level. NN . At 10.15 km at the port entrance there is a turning bay for motorized goods ships up to 90 m in length. The federal waterway ends at km 10.78 and the port basin at km 11.2.
Shortly before the lock, the connecting canal to the Leine branches off from the branch canal at km 8.5 north , via which passenger ships and pleasure craft can travel to the Ihme .
The harbor basin is crossed by the Fosse in a 90 m long culvert in a west-east direction. These flows then first additional 90 m verdolt under the Ostkai away and then superficially further east, on Fössebad over, the leash out.

Infrastructure

On the 70  hectare harbor area there are four handling cranes at a quay length of 2,065 m . Around 50 companies with around 3,000 employees are located on an area of ​​around 1.4 km². The port focuses on companies in the chemical industry, the mineral oil trade, freight forwarding, the vehicle industry, the construction industry, the recycling industry and the steel trade. Up to eight ships can be processed there at the same time and some more can be idle. The Lindener Hafen is an important forwarding and logistics center in Hanover. In 1991 the port of Linden received a crane bridge for trimodal transhipment ship / rail / road.

Port railway

As early as 1915 there was a rail connection from the Hanover-Linden marshalling yard in Linden harbor . From 1930 until its closure in 1990, the Küchengarten station was connected to the track network via the Lindener Hafenbahn. The city ports of Hanover operate twelve of their own locomotives and provide transport services on their own rail infrastructure as industrial mainline for non-public transport. A Gmeinder D 180 BB was ordered from the Gmeinder Lokomotivenfabrik and completed. Because of the insolvency of the Gmeinder Lokomotivenfabrik, the approval process was not completed. Due to the lack of approval and the unsecured supply of spare parts, a takeover was refrained from. On February 11, 2013, the Voith Gravita 10BB ordered instead was presented as the “F9” in Hanover. The "Hannover-Leinetor" combined rail terminal has existed in Linden harbor since 2003 . Goods are handled here in combined rail-road transport on an area of ​​20,000 m² . The tracks of the port railway run in two trains to the southern pier and single-track to the northern one.

traffic

Local roads open up the port of Hannover-Linden to Bundesstrasse 441 in the north and Bundesstrasse 6 in the east. Public transport connections exist a few hundred meters south, on Davenstedter Straße . Passenger shipping does not serve the Lindener Hafen and it is unsuitable for recreational shipping. After entering the Hannover-Linden branch canal, small vehicles can be moored in the ports of Seelze .

Events

During the Allied air raids on the port on March 14th and 15th, 1945, the barge MS Main 68 was hit and sank. With the ship, the files of the State Archives Düsseldorf should be relocated to the salt mine Grasleben near Helmstedt . The destroyed and damaged files are called Kahnakten . The damaged files are stored in the State Archives in Düsseldorf. The restoration is still ongoing (2017).
