List of streets in Essen-Altendorf
The list of streets in Essen-Altendorf describes the street system in Essen 's Altendorf district with the corresponding historical references.
Introduction and overview
22,691 people live in Essen-Altendorf today (March 31, 2020). They are distributed over an area of 2.49 square kilometers. The postal code districts 45127 and 45143 belong to Altendorf .
The present-day Essen districts Altendorf, Frohnhausen and Holsterhausen formed the mayor's office of Altendorf before their incorporation into the city of Essen in 1901 , the street numbering of which was divided into eight sections. When house numbering was introduced on renamed streets towards the end of the 19th century, problems arose with the same house numbers within the individual sections. For this reason, a street naming commission was founded in 1900 in order to clear up street naming and house numbering before the incorporation and to take into account streets in Essen, which was completed by May 15, 1901. However, at the request of the city of Essen, this decision was not carried out. After the incorporation, a new naming commission was formed under the leadership of Mayor Erich Zweigert , which recommended the division of the now new urban area into street name groups. Exceptions, however, were historical names within the districts.
There are several street name groups in Altendorf. Including the group of former farms and estates in the region to the north of Altendorfer Strasse, such as Drügeshof, Rüsel, Surs, Thol and Ehrenzeller Strasse. The group of former municipalities, such as Dorstener-, Sterkrader-, Mellinghofer- and Styrumer Straße, is located near the northern border of the district. South of Altendorfer Strasse is a group of important scientists, such as Kopernikus, Ohm, Röntgen and Siemensstrasse.
The borders of Altendorf run as follows:
In the west, the Borbecker Mühlenbach forms the border line until it bends in the north to the Hagenbecker Bahn road to the east. In the north, the Dorstenerstrasse and Zollstrasse form the border. The Helenenstrasse, the western border of the Krupp Park , the Husmannshofstrasse, the Dickmannstrasse and the Haedenkampstrasse mark the eastern border of Altendorf. To the south of the sports field on Haedenkampstrasse, the border continues in the south of the district via Heinitzstrasse and Hagenbeckstrasse until the Dortmund – Duisburg railway line forms the further border in a westerly direction to Borbeck Mühlenbach.
There are 98 designated traffic areas in Altendorf, including seven squares .

Altendorfer Strasse | 1650 (in the district) |
Altendorf , Essen district | Dec. 4, 1901 | On the occasion of the incorporation of Altendorf into the city of Essen on August 1st, 1901 and in memory of the mayor's office of Altendorf , which had been dissolved since 1883, the Limbecker Chaussee became Altendorfer Strasse. For the first time, the principle was adopted here to give the main street of a former district or municipality the name of the respective municipality in order to keep it in memory. The principle was later changed by naming a street after the place it led to. The eastern part of Altendorfer Strasse, roughly from Haedenkampstrasse to the Westviertel , was named after Gottfried Thomae ( Thomaestrasse ), a Nazi who was killed in clashes with communists in 1928 , at the time of National Socialism. On May 15, 1945 it got its name back. Today Altendorfer Straße forms part of the federal highway 231 running east-west through the district , which connects Essen with Oberhausen .
