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in Essen-Holsterhausen describes the street system in the Essen district of Holsterhausen with the corresponding historical references.

Introduction and overview

Essen-Holsterhausen has a population of 26466 today (March 31, 2020). They are distributed over an area of ​​2.98 square kilometers. The postal code districts 45145 and 45147 belong to Holsterhausen .

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 for newly named 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.

In the north of Holsterhausen there is the street name group of important entrepreneurs (for example Borsig-, Bunsen-, Gruson- and Freseniusstraße). In the central Holsterhausen there is the Malerviertel with, among others, Aldegreverstrasse, Bendemannstrasse and Rembrandtstrasse. Several streets around the current university hospital , which emerged from the city hospitals, were named after doctors.

The borders of Holsterhausen are formed as follows:
in the north, Lise-Meitner-Strasse, the Dortmund – Duisburg railway line , and Schederhofstrasse; in the west the EUROPA-CENTER, the Holsterhauser-, the Hölderlin-, the Kaupen-, the Mörike-, the Gemarken-, the Albrecht-, the Bruno-, the Krawehl-, the Virchow- and the Pelmanstraße; in the south the footpath and bike path on the former Mülheim-Heißen-Altendorf (Ruhr) railway line ; in the east the Bramkamp-, the Kämpen-, the Liebig-, the Münchener- and the Margaretenstraße.

There are 119 designated traffic areas in Holsterhausen, including four squares .
