List of street names with several people in Germany
![](https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/0/05/Geschwister-Scholl-Platz_-_Scholl_Siblings_Plaza_-_Outside_Ludwig-Maximilians-Universitat_-_Munich_-_Germany.jpg/220px-Geschwister-Scholl-Platz_-_Scholl_Siblings_Plaza_-_Outside_Ludwig-Maximilians-Universitat_-_Munich_-_Germany.jpg)
The list of street names with several people in Germany contains street names from Germany in which several people are named. With almost 600 times, the Scholl siblings are by far the most common group in street names. The Brothers Grimm can still be found over 200 times. All other people who can be found together on street signs never appear together more than five times. Most are only represented once.
Although the reasons for the names are varied, two groups of people are very often represented together in street names. For one thing, company founders or operators are often given a street in their company's location. Another larger group are opponents and victims of the Nazi regime .
Such street names also exist in Austria . However, they are much rarer there than in Germany.
list
The list does not claim to be complete. Only street names in which more than one person are named are entered. For example, no Grimm streets appear, although these presumably often also refer to the Brothers Grimm. In addition, only real personalities are taken into account. B. Excludes Max and Moritz Streets . Furthermore, only streets are listed where the honored personalities can be determined.
