History and systematics of street names

Since the founding of Innsbruck's old town in 1180, it took 150 years for the first names to be given. The urban area at that time included the old town, St. Nikolaus and Mariahilf . The first street names indicated the location in the city or important facilities on the street. Today's witnesses are the Seilergasse and the Schlossergasse in the old town, which can be traced back to the craftsmen who used to live there.

The Maria-Theresian tax cadastre was created around 1775. The street names continued to apply, and a consecutive number, the cadastral number, was assigned to each house. In 1787 a plaque with the street name was placed at the entrance and end of every street and alley.

In 1873 the citizens' committee decided to assign street-by-street house numbers instead of consecutive cadastral numbers, which over time became too confusing.

Wilten already had street names when it was incorporated in 1904; in the later incorporated towns of Arzl , Amras , Vill and Igls , the old cadastral numbers were not replaced by street names until the middle of the 20th century.

Sometimes street names were changed. This happened, for example, for political reasons, such as Margarethenplatz , which was named Bozner Platz in 1923 (see below). The square between the Landestheater and Hofburg was called Dollfussplatz after 1934 and then, under the rule of the National Socialists, Adolf-Hitler-Platz . Today it is part of the Rennweg . In other cases, deserved personalities are honored on previously unnamed streets or streets named after local institutions, such as Dr.-Sigismund-Epp-Weg (formerly Kindergartenweg ) or Helga-Krismer-Platz (formerly an unnamed place on Eduard-Bodem-Gasse ) . Names that are somewhat ambiguous are given an addition, such as Schrottstraße in Alois-Schrott-Straße or Fickerweg in Prof. Ficker-Weg . Renaming sometimes leads to protests by affected residents (because of the need to change addresses), which is why streets without a postal delivery address are also named.

The naming of the streets and squares in Innsbruck does not follow a consistent system, but certain "topics" occur frequently in some urban areas. In the city center, for example, the Südtiroler Platz and various streets named after South Tyrolean cities, such as Meraner Strasse , Salurner Strasse , Brixner Strasse , Brunecker Strasse and Bozner Platz, remind of the separation of the southern part of Tyrol by the treaties of St. Germain in the year 1919.

The frequent occurrence of zoological names in the Höttinger Au , such as Rehgasse or Fischottersteig, point to the former zoo established there by Emperor Maximilian I. The Reichenau has several names in military terms, as the Radetzkystraße or General-Eccher-Straße . The Olympic Village / Neu-Arzl is reminiscent of battle sites in the history of Tyrol ( Pasubiostraße , Pontlatzer Straße ) or Tyrolean freedom fighters ( Kajetan-Sweth-Straße , Josef-Kerschbaumer-Straße ).

Old names are kept even if the situation they indicate has changed. The Hohe Weg and the Lange Weg are now through streets, the main square is located in Mühlau northeast of the city center and the Dorfgasse points to the still quite village-like appearance of the town in the center of Hötting.

When new streets are created or renamed, old field names are often used that refer to terrain or historical events ( Am Rain , Höttinger Rain , Am Roßsprung , Burgweg ) or have an unknown meaning ( Gsturnsteig ).

Some of the names refer to personalities in connection with the older Innsbruck and Tyrolean history, such as Andechsstraße , Maximilianstraße or Andreas-Hofer-Straße . There are also names of Austrian rulers, sovereigns, governors, mayors, city politicians and community leaders of formerly independent communities, as well as deserving citizens of the city. Many street names also remember Austrian and German artists, musicians and writers.

Street names have recently been dedicated to victims of National Socialism, such as Otto-Neururer-Strasse , Pater-Reinisch-Weg or Christoph-Probst-Platz .

In recent years, the left-wing parties in the local council have criticized the fact that male names predominate in street names named after people.

The names of bridges are partly derived from twin cities or cities connected with Innsbruck ( Grenobler Bridge , Freiburg Bridge , New Orleans Bridge , Trient Bridge ).

  • Newer type of sign in the center (from the mid-1990s)
