from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The list of streets in Essen-Bredeney describes the street system in the Essen district of Bredeney with the corresponding historical references.

Introduction and overview

In Essen-Bredeney, 10,920 inhabitants (March 31, 2020) live on an area of ​​8.76 square kilometers. The district belongs to the postcode districts 45133, 45134 and 45239.

At the turn of the century, Bredeney was still very rural, so only a few streets had names at that time. The houses were renumbered by official street names by the municipal council resolution of August 6, 1907. Only a few other names were added until 1915 when it was incorporated into the city of Essen.

Even if some streets were renamed after flowers and plants for incorporation in 1915, without expressly forming a street name group, in the course of time further street names were added based on this model in the area west of Alfredstrasse.

In the Krupp settlement of Brandenbusch , which was laid out for employees of the neighboring Villa Hügel , the former residence of the Krupp family, the streets were named after children of the industrial family Krupp von Bohlen and Halbach .

At the suggestion of the former Westerwaldverein, Essen local group, further streets were named after German low mountain ranges during the development of the area at Brucker Holt, following Westerwaldstrasse.

The district boundary of Bredeney is formed roughly clockwise from the north as follows:
Through the federal motorway 52 and the parallel Norbertstraße, the street Nelkengarten, the Einigkeitstraße and part of the Wiedfeldtstraße to Rüttenscheid ; follow the latter, the street Waldeck, the Frankenstraße in an easterly direction and then as the crow flies through the city forest, crossing the Lerchenstraße to the border-forming Trappenbergstraße, the street Drosselanger, the street Bottlenberg to the Heisinger Straße to Stadtwald ; in the southeast through the Ruhr and the Baldeneysee to Fischlaken and Werden ; in the south through the streets Kanonenberg and Heissiwald to Werden, west of the Heissiwald to the north, through the Aseybach and Meisenburgstrasse to Schuir , on through the Hatzperstrasse and the Theodor-Althoff-Strasse and the Autobahn 52 to Margarethenhöhe .

There are 116 designated traffic areas in Bredeney, including a square called Am Brunnen .
Of these, the following streets are only partially in the district:
Aegidiusstraße, Alfredstraße, Am Korintenberg, Bottlenberg, Bredeneyer Straße, Drosselanger, Frankenstraße, Freiherr-vom-Stein-Straße, Hatzper Straße, Heisinger Straße, Kanonenberg, Lerchenstraße, Meisenburgstraße, Norbertstraße, Trappenbergstraße, Wilhelm-Bernsau-Weg.
