List of streets in Essen-Burgaltendorf

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of streets in Essen-Burgaltendorf describes the street system in Essen 's Burgaltendorf district with the corresponding historical references.

Introduction and overview

The former municipality of Altendorf (Ruhr) was incorporated into the city of Essen in 1970, whereby it was renamed Burgaltendorf, as the Altendorf district already existed in Essen . In Essen-Burgaltendorf today, 9,451 inhabitants (March 31, 2020) live on an area of ​​6.3 square kilometers. Burgaltendorf belongs to the postcode district 45289.

On June 16, 1911, official street names were introduced by resolution of the Altendorf municipal council. After incorporation into the city of Essen in 1970, 26 street names were necessarily changed. According to the decision of the main committee of the city of Essen, these were renamed on December 16, 1970 in a ratio of 1: 1, which meant a renaming in Burgaltendorf had to result in a renaming in the rest of Essen city area. Several street names in Burgaltendorf are reminiscent of the former coal mining in what was then Altendorf (Ruhr). A group of streets in the south of the district was named after birds in 1966.

In the north of Burgaltendorf, the Ruhr forms the border with the neighboring district of Horst and the neighboring city of Bochum . The south-eastern border, mainly to the neighboring town of Hattingen , runs from the Ruhr overland and crosses Burgstrasse. Continuing south across the country, it crosses Dumberger Straße and roughly follows Elvenholzbach until it crosses Kohlenstraße in the south of Burgaltendorf. In the further course to the northwest, the border roughly follows the Deipenbecke road and, as an extension, the Dellmannsweg as a western border, further overland the Überruhrstraße and the Charlottenstraße crossing through the Wichteltal back to the Ruhr.

There are 65 designated traffic areas in Burgaltendorf, including no space . Of these, the following streets are only partially in the district:
Burgstraße, Deipenbecke, Deipenbecktal, Dellmannsweg, Dumberger Straße (as Burgaltendorfer Straße in Hattingen), Im Brauke, Kohlenstraße, Laurastraße, Überruhrstraße, Wichteltal.

The state road L925 runs through the district of Burgaltendorf on Überruhrstrasse from Überruhr , further on Mölleneystrasse, Alte Hauptstrasse and Dumberger Strasse to Hattingen .
