List of streets and squares in Ilmenau
This article contains a selection of important streets and squares in the Thuringian city of Ilmenau . In total there are around 170 streets and 5 squares (Marktplatz, Kirchplatz, Homburger Platz, Wetzlarer Platz and Topfmarkt) in Ilmenau (excluding districts), although this number cannot be precisely determined. It fluctuates depending on how you define a street. The longest street in Ilmenau is Bücheloher Straße at around 2,250 meters (note: the street lengths were measured for arterial roads without a specific end to the outer building boundary) and the street with the longest name is Johann-Friedrich-Böttger-Straße (31 characters). The street with the shortest name is Lawn (5 characters). Until 1990, the street of German-Soviet friendship (44 characters) was the street with the longest name. Around 50 streets have been renamed since 1800, many for political reasons (1933, 1946 and 1990).
66 of the 170 streets are named after people (39%), 62 of which are named after men, 4 after women ( Clara-Zetkin- Strasse, Corona-Schröter- Strasse, Neue Marienstraße and Sophienstrasse ) and 24 after people related to Ilmenau .
Streets
Arterial roads
- Schleusinger Allee (length: 750 meters to the Sportlerklause): Schleusinger Allee was created in 1836 when the Grand Duke of Saxony-Weimar-Eisenach had the roads in the Ilmenau district expanded. It begins at Homburger Platz and leads west out of the city. The avenue is named after the town of Schleusingen in southern Thuringia, which can be reached via it. Until 2004 the Schleusinger Allee was called Schleusinger Straße . It was renamed at that time because there is also Schleusinger Straße in the Ilmenau district of Manebach and one wanted to avoid confusion. The Ilm runs right next to Schleusinger Allee . Important buildings on the avenue are the Hotel Tanne and the Ilmenauer Festhalle . The B 4 ran on Schleusinger Allee from Ilmenau to Coburg (since 2011 Landesstraße 3004).
- Erfurter Straße (length: 900 meters to the Total petrol station): Erfurter Straße was laid out in 1805. At that time it was called Marienstrasse or, in the eastern part, Nordstrasse. It begins at the police station or at the junction with the Amtsstraße and leads in a north-westerly direction out of the city. The street was initially named after the Weimar Duchess Maria Pawlowna , who financed its construction. Today it is named after Thuringia's state capital Erfurt , which can be reached via it. The Erfurter Straße is of particular importance for traffic, as it connects the city with the A 71 exit Ilmenau-West. In the first section there are residential buildings on both sides and the Ilmenau cemetery on the right, in the “outer” section there are two gas stations, a furniture store and an industrial area. The B 4 and B 88 , which were downgraded to the L 3004 in 2011 , ran on Erfurter Strasse .
- Unterpörlitzer Strasse (length: 1,250 meters): Unterpörlitzer Strasse was built on at the end of the 19th century. It begins at the police station or at the junction with the Amtsstraße and leads in a north-easterly direction out of the city. The street was named after the village of Unterpörlitz , which connects it with Ilmenau. At the beginning of Unterpörlitzer Straße there are the Ilmenau police and the Thuringian state dike and further down the street the Catholic Church of Ilmenau, St. Josef, and the fire station. In the middle of its course there is a roundabout where Bücheloher Straße branches off. Unterpörlitzer Strasse now leaves the immediate city area and continues, past a sports field and the Jäcklein brewery , into the “Pörlitzer Höhe” panel building area, where it ends. The B 4 and B 88 ran on it in the western part, the B 87 in the middle and the L 2272 in the eastern part, but all were graduated until 2012, so that today the L3004 and L3087 in the western and central part are on Unterpörlitzer Straße run, the eastern part was graded to the municipal road.
- Bücheloher Straße (length: 2,250 meters to the exit of the town): Bücheloher Straße was built in 1973. It begins at the roundabout in Unterpörlitzer Strasse and heads east out of the city. It is named after the neighboring village of Ilmenau, to which it leads: Bücheloh . It was built to improve the accessibility of the new industrial area at Vogelherd and to relieve the Weimarer Strasse, which runs parallel to the south. There is a residential building on Bücheloher Strasse, which mostly leads through open land and commercial areas. It crosses the tracks of the former Ilmenau freight yard with two bridges and then leads to the Eichicht residential area before leaving the city. The L3087 (until 2013: B 87 ) runs on Bücheloher Straße from Ilmenau to Stadtilm and continues as the B 87 to Weimar . It also leads to the A71 exit Ilmenau-Ost.
- Weimarer Straße (length: 1,250 meters): Weimarer Straße was paved in 1829. It starts at the market square and then leads straight out of the city in an easterly direction. It was named after the city of Weimar , which could be reached via it from Ilmenau. In the first section there used to be a city gate, the so-called Jüdentor or Stadtilmer Gate . The street was called Jüdengasse until the 19th century, then Bergstraße until the 1930s and since then Weimarer Straße. Striking buildings on Weimarer Strasse are the Goethepassage shopping center on the market, the Carl-August-Schacht building, the old (1895) and the new (1926) technical center as the nucleus of today's university and the city slaughterhouse. In 1973, Weimarer Straße was replaced by Bücheloher Straße in terms of traffic, to which the B 87 (since 2013: L 3087) was also relocated. Since then, the road has ended at the slaughterhouse in front of the Erfurt – Ilmenau railway line. It used to be a poplar avenue east of this railway line, which has become a "landmark" of Ilmenau. Today a short piece of this poplar avenue is still visible in the back of Bücheloher Straße. The houses on Weimarer Strasse were built between the 14th century (beginning) and the 1930s (end).
- Langewiesener Straße (length: 1,250 meters): Langewiesener Straße was laid out in 1825. It starts at the station crossing and heads east out of the city. It was named after the neighboring town to which it leads: Langewiesen . The Langewiesener Straße runs parallel to the Ilm and the former railway line to Langewiesen. In the street are also the train station and the largest level crossing in the city, where the Rennsteigbahn and the disused Ilmenau – Großbreitenbach line cross. The architecture in the street is shaped by the era of industrialization , residential buildings are mixed with old factory buildings. The Langewiesener Straße also represents the most important connection between the city center and the university campus. Until 2013, the street was part of the B 88 Ilmenau– Rudolstadt and is now dedicated as L 1140.
- Oehrenstöcker Strasse (length: 620 meters): Oehrenstöcker Strasse dates from the middle of the 19th century. It begins at the Mühltor and leads in a south-easterly direction out of the city. It ends at the hospital. The street was named after the neighboring village of Oehrenstock . The Oehrenstöcker Straße initially leads south out of the city, crosses the city ring at the Bärenkreuzung and then leads over the Ilm and the level crossing with the Rennsteigbahn up to the Ilmenau hospital. There it turns into Johann-Friedrich-Böttger-Straße, which then crosses the “Stollen” residential area and then leads to the neighboring town as Oehrenstöcker Landstraße .
- Forest road (length: 700 meters to the end of the village): The forest road was paved in 1817, but follows a trade route that has existed since the 13th century. It begins at the "Tanne", the position of the Hotel Tanne and leads in a south-westerly direction out of the city. The street is characterized by splendid Art Nouveau villas. It leads through the "Kurviertel", an upscale city district that is characterized by villas from the time when Ilmenau was a climatic health resort. The road initially leads over the Ilm (Tannenbrücke) and the Rennsteigbahn (level crossing) before winding up the mountain between the Altes Kurpark and Lessingpark. The forest road follows the Gabelbachtal from the village exit . The Ilmenau-Bad stop of the Rennsteigbahn, the Ritzebühl (a pond) and the city's winter sports facilities are located on Waldstrasse. The Waldstraße is marked as K 56 (formerly: L 1137, future: Gemeindestraße ) and leads up to the Kickelhahn , to Neustadt am Rennsteig and to Frauenwald .
Ring roads
There is no official city ring in Ilmenau, but all through traffic flows in the form of a mirrored C around the old town. This "C" is formed from the following three streets:
- Karl-Liebknecht-Straße (length: about 600 meters): Karl-Liebknecht-Straße leads south past the old town of Ilmenau. It was created around 1895 with the name Bismarckstrasse . It has had its current name since 1946 after the German politician Karl Liebknecht . Karl-Liebknecht-Strasse is a typical main street of the German Imperial Era: it is very wide compared to other Ilmenau streets and built on both sides with large apartment buildings. In addition, there have been linden trees on the sidewalks on both sides for about 100 years. The representative design of the street is due to the fact that between 1895 and 1904 it had the function of escorting the spa guests arriving at the train station to the spa district in the southwest of the city. It connects Homburger Platz in the west with the train station in the east. Important buildings in the street are the Goethe-Gymnasium, the former glass instrument factory "Alt, Eberhardt & Jäger" (today a shopping center) and the only parking garage in Ilmenau. The L 3004 (previously: B 4) runs along Karl-Liebknecht-Straße. At the station crossing it turns into Friedrich-Ebert-Straße.
- Friedrich-Ebert-Straße (length about 550 meters): Friedrich-Ebert-Straße connects the train station in the south with the technical center (university building) in the north. It can be divided into two sections: the southern part between the station crossing and the bus station crossing and the northern part between the bus station crossing and the technical center crossing. The southern part runs parallel to the train station and bus station, has no buildings and is of recent origin. It was created when a ring road was formed from individual sections of road in 1997/1998. The northern part was built as Friedrichstrasse around 1900 and was renamed Friedrich-Ebert-Strasse (after the German politician Friedrich Ebert ) in 1946 . However, it had no traffic significance until 1997 and is therefore not comparable with the current situation. The L 3004 runs along Friedrich-Ebert-Straße (previously: B 4 and B 88). It turns into Karl-Liebknecht-Strasse in the south and Friesenstrasse in the north. A striking building is the former porcelain factory "Arno Fischer" to the east, which has been converted into a residential building.
- Friesenstrasse (length about 250 meters): Friesenstrasse connects Friedrich-Ebert-Strasse in the south with Unterpörlitzer Strasse in the north. It itself is located northeast of the Ilmenau town center and is named after Karl Friedrich Friesen . The Friesenstraße was only laid out in 1997 as part of the reorganization of the Ilmenau transport network. It is only sparsely built up, but it is one of the busiest streets in the city. The L 3004 (previously: B 4 and B 88) also runs on it. The L 3087 (previously: B 87) begins at its northern end.
Historic streets in the city center
- Marktstrasse : Marktstrasse runs in a south-north direction in the heart of the old town of Ilmenau from the Apothekerbrunnen to the market square. It is the central and also the oldest street in Ilmenau. The architecture here is influenced by the late baroque. The houses on both sides were built around 1755 after the last great city fire. In the southern part of Marktstrasse is the church square with the town church . There are numerous small shops in the street.
- Friedrich-Hofmann-Straße : Friedrich-Hofmann-Straße is the eastern part of the Ilmenau pedestrian zone. It connects the Apothekerbrunnen in the west with the Wetzlarer Platz in the east. In the course of its history it has had several different names: first Schlossgasse, then Moltkestraße and Ernst-Thälmann-Straße and finally since 1990 after the Ilmenau romantic poet Friedrich Hofmann . In the street are the larger shops of the city such as B. the city department store and branches of well-known retail chains.
- Straße des Friedens : The Straße des Friedens is the western part of the Ilmenau pedestrian zone and leads from the Apothekerbrunnen to the former Endleichtor, where it turns into Lindenstraße. Until 1933 it was called Poststrasse, between 1933 and 1946 Adolf-Hitler-Strasse and since then Strasse des Friedens. It is characterized by smaller businesses that are mostly privately run. There are also numerous cafes here. Striking buildings here are the Sächsischer Hof, the Grimm'sche Buchhandlung and the city pharmacy at the beginning of the Apothekerbrunnen as well as the former Jewish department store Gebrüder Eichenbronner, which is the only larger department store on this street and today houses a Xenos branch.
- Lindenstrasse : Lindenstrasse connects to the west of Strasse des Friedens and connects it with Waldstrasse and Schleusinger Allee at the other end. It is about 400 meters long and was laid out according to Goethe's ideas at the beginning of the 19th century. It is the widest street in the city and its layout is quite similar to a boulevard. Striking buildings here are the Wenzelsche House, the Lion, the Goat Fountain and the building of the former spa administration.
Places
- Market square (official name: Am Markt ): The market square is in the north of the old town. On top of it is the hen fountain, the largest fountain in the city. Adjacent buildings are the town hall on the western edge, the office building on the northern edge, the Goethepassage on the eastern edge and the Schindler café and the Adler on the southern edge. Weimarer Strasse and Wallgraben flow onto the market square from the east, Marktstrasse from the south, a lane to the Topfmarkt from the west, and Amtsstrasse and Obertorstrasse from the north. Since the restructuring of the Ilmenau transport network in the 1960s, the square has been freed from through traffic. Since it was built in the 13th century, it has been on the important trade route from Erfurt to Nuremberg, from which the later B 4 emerged. In 1998 the market square was rebuilt and since then has no longer been passable for through traffic, as it can only be accessed from Obertorstraße. Weekly markets always take place on Tuesdays and Fridays on the Ilmenau market square.
- Kirchplatz : The Kirchplatz is in the middle of the old town of Ilmenau between the market square in the north and the square at the Apothekerbrunnen in the south. On the church square is the Ilmenau town church from the 18th century (late baroque) and the Luther candelabra from 1894, which was then set up to commemorate the 375th anniversary of the introduction of the Reformation in Ilmenau. At the eastern edge of the church square is the parish hall (built around 1755, late baroque) in which the Protestant parish of St. James is administered. Marktstrasse crosses the church square in a north-south direction. Other streets that start here are Spitalgasse (to the south), Karl-Zink-Strasse (to the west) and Kirchgasse (to the east). The church square is part of the Ilmenau pedestrian zone.
- Homburger Platz : Homburger Platz is located south of the old town of Ilmenau at the intersection of Karl-Liebknecht-Straße , Schleusinger Allee and Straße An der Sparkasse. It was created around 1900 under the name Bismarckplatz, between 1946 and 1990 it was called Karl-Marx-Platz and since then it has been named after the Ilmenau twin town Homburg . The square has a square basic shape, an Art Nouveau building and a small park in the middle. Originally the square was a roundabout, but it was removed in 1965 when the B 4 was built straight through the park to improve the flow of traffic. Adjacent buildings are the Sparkasse, the old power station, the Diakonie and the former Central Hotel (now a student residence). The Homburger Platz is also important for public transport as many of the school buses to the Ilmenau grammar schools start and end here.
- Wetzlarer Platz : Wetzlarer Platz is located on the eastern edge of the old town of Ilmenau in front of the former Mühltor . It was laid out in the course of the rebuilding of the city after the fire of 1752, but had no name until 1946. Its basic shape is triangular, with the western edge being formed by a row of houses, the southern edge by the Alte Försterei and the northeast edge by the building of the former district office of the Ilmenau district , which today houses numerous authorities. In addition, the former Ilmenau main post office and a department store from the Art Nouveau period are located on its northern extension . The area of today's square was in the palace garden of the Ilmenau Rococo palace until the city fire of 1752. In 1946 it was designated as the place of resistance fighters , because the war memorial of the Second World War for the city of Ilmenau stands in the small park in its center. In 2004 it was expanded to include a memorial for the Jews of Ilmenau. The square has been named after Ilmenau's twin town in Hesse since 1990: Wetzlar . When it was redesigned in 2005, the square was traffic-calmed (there is only one through road Poststraße-Mühltor) and thus significantly upgraded. At that time, the "liquid chronometer" was set up, a clock that shows the time through the height of a column of liquid. Poststrasse, the castle wall, Friedrich-Hofmann-Strasse, Mühlgraben, Mühltor, August-Bebel-Strasse and Bahnhofstrasse meet at Wetzlarer Platz. It forms the eastern end of the Ilmenau pedestrian zone and is thus between the old town and the train station or university. There is also a bus stop on Wetzlarer Platz, which ensures public transport from the pedestrian zone to all parts of the city and many other places in the area.
- Topfmarkt : The Topfmarkt is a long square in the west of the old town of Ilmenau. As its name suggests, pottery and iron goods used to be traded here - but not only. Today, the Topfmarkt is very quiet and somewhat “hidden” parallel to Marktstrasse or behind the town hall. Occasionally, smaller events take place here, such as the Ilmenau pottery market.
Street name signs
Until 1990, enamelled iron signs with white lettering on a dark blue background were used in Ilmenau and were almost exclusively attached to house walls.
New street name signs have been used since 1990. They are made of steel covered with a plastic film and show the street names in white letters on a cyan blue background. They are strongly based on the old type and are never placed on house walls, but always on their own masts. They are also always labeled on both sides. Furthermore, since 1990, short explanations of the naming have been attached to non- trivial street names (see picture).
