geography

Neugruna is 7 kilometers east of Dresden city center and is in the middle of the Elbe valley . Neighboring districts apart from Blasewitz, which is adjacent to the north, are Tolkewitz in the east, Seidnitz in the south and Striesen in the west. The Neugruna district does not have its own boundary , but is formally in Blasewitz. It extends from the Johannisfriedhof in the east to Altenberger Straße in the west and roughly from the Elbe in the north to over Kipsdorfer Straße in the south. From the eponymous district of Gruna , it is cut off in the west by a strip only a few 100 meters wide from areas belonging to Striesen and Seidnitz. Together with Blasewitz, Neugruna forms the statistical district of Blasewitz with Neugruna . Neugruna is a typical Dresden villa district , the development of which is similar to the neighboring districts of Striesen and Tolkewitz. The most important streets in Neugruna are Altenberger and Schandauer Straße. There are also the Tauscher-, Hofmann-, Ludwig-Hartmann- and Schaufussstraße as well as the Gustav-Freytag-, Scaria-, May-, Polenz- and Traubestraße.

history

Alexander Frantz Observatory

In the area of ​​the later Neugruna district, the village of Praschütz and the Vorwerk Grünpraschütz were located in the late Middle Ages . The village, which was owned by the Altzella monastery , was first mentioned in 1307 as Praschycz , burned down in 1310 and subsequently referred to as desolate . It was probably located at the intersection of today's Ludwig-Hartmann- and Schandauer Strasse. The reasons for the abandonment of the village are unknown; it may have been abandoned because of the risk of flooding or for economic reasons. The farmers of the surrounding villages then cultivated the fields until they were completely transferred to Gruna in the 16th century and were then referred to as Grunaer Tännicht .

Around 1870, the Blasewitz-Grunaer Landgraben from Striesen (see street Am Landgraben there ) was relocated to this area. This increased the interest of property speculators, including the wealthy composer Ludwig Hartmann , who acquired the forest and parceled it out . Then in 1876 they founded the Daheim construction company , which laid out five new regular streets for better development, and sold the land as building land . In the decades that followed, they were completely built on with individually standing multi-storey houses. A residential suburb was also created for workers who were mainly employed in the Striesen optical and tobacco industry. In 1896 the old connecting route between Blasewitz and Seidnitz was expanded to today's Altenberger Straße.

Since 1887, when it left the Kreuzkirche parish , Neugruna and Blasewitz have formed a parish based in the neo-Gothic Holy Spirit Church . The children of the district initially went to school in Blasewitz, but were given their own schoolhouse as early as 1881. Due to the sharp increase in the number of students, this was replaced in 1909 by a new building by Hans Erlwein on Hofmannstrasse , which houses the 32nd elementary school in Sieben Schwaben . The Frantz observatory, founded in 1922 and thus the first private observatory in Dresden, is also located on Hofmannstrasse.

Together with the community of Gruna , Neugruna was incorporated into Dresden on April 1, 1901 . Exactly 20 years later, on April 1, 1921, Blasewitz was also incorporated into Dresden. Neugruna, which was spatially separated from Gruna by Striesen, was then assigned to the Blasewitz district, which is why it has an elongated point to the south today. Comparable cases of such circumferences in Dresden are Neu-Leuteritz and Am Fährhaus . In 1925, the Gartenheim construction association built housing estates, for example the Neugruna residential complex on Tauscherstrasse.
