The list of streets and squares in Sommerach describes the street system of the Lower Franconian community of Sommerach in the Kitzingen district . All named streets and squares are listed as well as the national streets, as well as cycle and long-distance hiking trails .
overview
The road network in the Sommeracher Altort testifies to the historical connections of the place. Coming from Nordheim , the medieval main street, called Marktgasse for a long time , runs in a south-easterly direction through the Schwarzacher Tor towards Münsterschwarzach , where the village lord of Sommerach, the Münsterschwarzach monastery, had his seat. Other important roads run in the direction of the Main or to Volkach , which has been the nearest town since the 13th century and thus the trading center for the area.
The streets of Sommerach remained unnamed for a long time and the streets were not paved . Only the ballast was made. Since the end of the 19th century, the Sommerachers began to build properties outside of the core town, especially along Volkacher Strasse from 1875 onwards. The counting of the houses was extended to these repatriate farms; the old town had 178 house numbers for centuries .
On September 11, 1933, the local council decided to tar the main road for the first time . Between 1958 (Maintorstraße) and 1962 the tarring of all Sommerach streets was completed. At the same time, the place expanded in the direction of Gerlachshausen -Münsterschwarzach and around the cemetery. Every decade of the 20th century brought new building areas. In 1974, the town's network of roads had become so extensive that street names were introduced. Under National Socialism , some streets had already been named in line with Nazi ideology; they were renamed in 1945.
The local roads connecting Dimbach , Nordheim am Main and Volkach were gradually upgraded to district roads. After the tarry in 1966, the Sommerach – Nordheim road received this upgrade. The Sommerach – Dimbach road was completed by 1971. The strong growth in traffic, especially between Volkach and Kitzingen , led to the construction of a bypass road for State Road 2271 in 1997. The road was led around the so-called Weininsel with Sommerach. When the canal was built in the 1950s, three bridges to Sommerach had already been built.
