Former traffic areas

The Europa Passage , which opened in 2006, follows the course of the former Paulstraße between Kleiner Rosenstraße and Hermannstraße, into which the street Raboisen merged at its eastern end. Although it no longer exists, there is access to the offices above the shopping areas with the address Paulstraße 3 at the southern entrance. Paulstraße is also still shown on the German base map. ( Location )

Due to the demolition of the City-Hof-Houses, the City-Hof-Passage no longer exists since 2019.
