The list of former streets and squares in the Berlin district of Mitte names former streets and squares in the Mitte district of Berlin or in the area where it was built, Old Berlin and Cölln . It is a supplement to the overview article Streets and Squares in Berlin , in which all Berlin districts are shown. With the overview of the current streets and squares in Mitte , it forms a direct unit.

Historical circumstances of street names

As usual in all medieval towns and cities, there were initially no official street names. The inhabitants of the two founding cities Berlin and Cölln used either the name of a well-known resident or a typical characteristic of the traffic route for their orientation. The first access routes along the Berlin city walls until 1750 were principally called communication . The respective city gate has been added to give a more precise description of the location.

The use of house numbers was also not common at first, so the houses had to be indicated by direction and owner or mark. That turned out to be rather cumbersome, as the following example illustrates: “In front of the reverb. Th. On the way n. D. Hasenh. in the Seebohmschen house ”.

Neither the residents nor the magistrate had any influence on the construction of roads and other urban planning matters, as this was the responsibility of the Royal Police Headquarters on behalf of the King. Because a law did not officially assign street names until the middle of the 19th century, some names exist before the official date. And prior to the introduction of district numbers, assignments were made to the responsible police station.

Since the boundaries between the districts established since 2001 and the districts that have been in effect since 1920 have shifted several times and the location of some streets has changed over the centuries, it is not possible to assign earlier street names to the district of Berlin-Mitte or a specific street always possible.

Historical sources

Earlier street names can be found in Berlin address books from 1799 to 1943, many of which are also available online.

Unrecorded names of streets and squares

  1. The spellings were not standardized, so that both separately written and combined street names and those with and without connecting-n or -s were used, and "C" and "K" are often mixed up. If only the spellings mentioned have changed so far or additions such as "old", "new", "small", "large" and "extended" have occurred or the paths from a "lane" or "Chaussee" have been rededicated to a street, are these streets have not been recorded separately here. You are in the current list . The educational principles that have been applied in the meantime, according to which streets are to be written by person in one word, streets by place but separately with the ending "-er", were also not yet widespread and will not be discussed separately here.
  2. The first access routes along the Berlin city walls until 1750 were principally called communication . The respective city gate has been added to describe the location more precisely, for example “Communication behind the Frankfurter Tor” or “Am Neuen Tor”, “In front of the Oranienburger Tor”. A few decades later, these roughly six different streets were called “establishments” in front of / at the respective gate. They are not mentioned here as forerunners of today's roads, but can be found in the current list for the respective traffic routes.
  3. Since the boundaries between the districts established since 2001 and the districts that have been in effect since 1920 have shifted several times and the location of some streets has changed over the centuries, it is not possible to assign previous street names to the district of Berlin-Mitte or a specific street always possible. Errors cannot therefore be completely ruled out, and completeness cannot be guaranteed either. Streets that are mostly in the neighboring districts of Friedrichshain, Kreuzberg, Tiergarten or Moabit / Wedding have not been included here (again). This was already a considerable differentiation from the original four districts .
