history

Surname

Münchener Strasse was named after the Bavarian capital, Munich , which has 1.45 million inhabitants.

development

In 1875 Findorff had 2500 inhabitants. Since 1893, the area of the railway line, Münchener Strasse, Hemmstrasse, Neukirchstrasse and Findorffstrasse was built with one and two-story houses. In World War II, many houses were destroyed here. The street is characterized by the post-war buildings. From 2014 to 2015, the road was also redesigned with the construction of the mixed water sewer. 50 field maple trees were planted.

traffic

In 1913 the connection to the Bremen tram network was established with line 9 from Hemmstraße - Findorfftunnel - main station to Sankt-Jürgen-Straße. A second connection was established in 1927 when the route to the Bürgerpark was extended through Eickedorfer Straße to Hemmstraße. Both lines were connected to a ring with lines 5 and 6 (at times 6A). The last trams in Findorff ran in 1964 (line 5) and 1967 (line 6).

In local transport in Bremen, bus line 28 (Überseestadt ↔ Neue Vahr-Nord) runs through the street and lines 25 (Weidedamm-Süd ↔ Osterholz), 26 (Überseestadt ↔ Huckelriede) and 27 (Weidedamm-Nord ↔ Huckelriede) touch the street at the Hemmstrasse.

Buildings and facilities

On the street there are mostly two to five-story buildings, many from the post-war period.
