List of streets in Essen-Frintrop

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list of streets in Essen-Frintrop describes the street system in the Essen district of Frintrop with the corresponding historical references.

Introduction and overview

In Frintrop, 8,485 inhabitants (March 31, 2020) live on an area of ​​1.96 square kilometers and, together with the neighboring district of Bedingrade, belongs to the postcode district 45359.

Because of the loose development, it was not customary to put name tags at the beginning and end of a street. This function was fulfilled by the house number plates which, in addition to the house number, recorded the street name in small letters. Those unfamiliar with the area also found such remote buildings. Given the small size of the signs, short names were practical - this is how the Borbeck mayor Rudolf Heinrich (1881–1907), whose district Frintrop belonged, invented short forms such as Glückstrasse, Kahrstrasse, Saumstrasse or Steigstrasse around 1890. The Höhenweg connects Oberfrintrop with Unterfrintrop. Frintroper Strasse was laid out as Essener Chaussee in 1791 and renamed to Essener Strasse on April 30, 1891 and finally to Frintroper Strasse on July 9, 1915, after being incorporated into the city of Essen .

The district is bounded clockwise from the north as follows:
To Essen-Dellwig : Dellwiger Straße, Helmstraße, Richtstraße, Pfarrstraße, area at Stenkamps Busch; to food conditions : Berchembach, Donnerstraße, Schloßstraße, Oberhauser Straße; zu Oberhausen - Bermensfeld : western edge of the valley at Läppkes Mühlenbach between Oberhauser and Frintroper Strasse, Schemmannsfeld; to the new center of Oberhausen : Dellwiger Strasse.

In Frintrop there are 51 designated traffic areas, including the Frintroper market a place . The so-called Leoplatz now only consists of two streets, is built on and therefore does not form any space in the urban planning sense. Of these 51 streets, eight are only partially in the district:
Dellwiger Straße, as the border to Oberhausen, continues to Dellwig; the Frintroper Strasse divides the district as federal road 231 from southwest to northeast, i.e. from Bedingrade to Oberhausen; Baustraße, Straße Schildberg, Straße Donnerberg and Richtstraße also continue to Dellwig; the Stenkamps Busch and the Schlossstrasse are continued in Bedingrade.

The federal road 231 runs on the Frintroper Strasse through the district, and the state road 229 runs on the Dellwiger Strasse.
