The Neustadt ( Low German Neestadt ) is a district of Bremen on the left bank of the Weser and belongs to the southern district of Bremen .
Geography and districts
Bremer Neustadt is located in the center of Bremen on the left bank of the Weser , directly opposite the Mitte district .
Neighboring districts are Mitte in the north, Obervieland in the east, Huchting in the south and Woltmershausen in the west .
The district is divided into eight districts:
Old New Town
Area: 1.45 km², 6145 inhabitants
The current Alte Neustadt was laid out as a planned urban expansion in the 17th century on the left side of the Weser and surrounded with fortifications, today's Neustädter ramparts. The main location of the Bremen University of Applied Sciences , the indoor swimming pool south , the Neustadt / Woltmershausen local office and the secondary school on Leibnizplatz are located here , the building of which also houses the theater of the bremer shakespeare company , the Theater am Leibnizplatz . The Neustadt police station (with the exception of a contact point for schoolchildren) has moved from Leibnizplatz to Airportstadt. The Bremen Waterways and Shipping Office and the House of the Church , the administrative seat of the Bremen Evangelical Church, are located on Franziuseck . In addition, the Red Cross Hospital Bremen and the Hohentor customs office as well as the companies Hachez , Kraft Foods and InBev ( Beck & Co. ) are located in the Old Neustadt.
The Teerhof , the peninsula between the Weser and the Kleine Weser, is part of the old town . After almost complete destruction in the Second World War, nothing of its original development has survived except for the Weserburg ( Neues Museum Weserburg Bremen ) now used as a museum for contemporary art . In the 1990s, the Teerhof was mainly built with residential houses and connected to the old town by an additional pedestrian bridge. Since 2009, one of the last properties on the Teerhof has been developed by the Beluga Group , a shipping company that existed until 2011, according to plans by Harm Haslob and Jens Kruse.
To the east of the current Wilhelm-Kaisen-Brücke , the Stadtwerder (Werder = river island), namesake for the football club Werder Bremen, extends between the Weser and the Kleiner Weser, which has expanded to form Werdersee . The most striking building on the Stadtwerder is the listed former waterworks, built from 1871 to 1873 in the historicist style. A new use is being sought for the building, which is known colloquially as the “ upside down chest of drawers ” due to its external shape .
District boundaries: In the northeast the Weser; in the southeast to the district of Huckelriede from the Weser over the area of the sports clubs along the east side of the former waterworks to the Kleiner Weser, then over about 200 meters to the east congruent with the bank, at the Deichschart change to the other bank; in the south to the Buntentor district along the banks of the Kleiner Weser to Piepe, then Neustadtscontrescarpe to the intersection with Friedrich-Ebert-Strasse forms the border with Südervorstadt ; in the south-west the part of the Neustadtscontrescarpe together with the Hohentorsplatz forms the border to the districts Neustadt and Hohentor ; in the northwest the Bremen – Oldenburg railway line .
Hohentor
Area: 0.39 km², 4564 inhabitants
The district of Hohentor covers an area of around 500 × 800 meters. On its northeast side, the quarter borders the Alte Neustadt. The Langemarck road is in the southeast of the border to Neustadt. In the southwest, Neuenlander Straße forms the border with the Neuenland district. In the northwest, the Bremen – Oldenburg railway line with the Bremen-Neustadt train station forms the sickle-shaped border to the Woltmershausen district .
The elevated highway B 6 to Oldenburg, which has been developed as an expressway, runs through the district of Hohentor in a north-east-south-west direction , while Hohentorsheerstraße was converted into a traffic-calmed residential street as a former main street. Until it was shut down in the 1960s, tram line 7 to Rablinghausen and at times line 6 ran here. Today, the Hohentor is only connected to public transport at its borders.
The narrow industrial area Neustädter Güterbahnhof lies between the Hochstraße and the Bremen – Oldenburg railway line .
Neustadt
Area: 0.47 km², 7344 inhabitants
The district is also known as the river district, as most of the streets in this area are named after rivers. The almost square area extends from Neustadtscontrescarpe in the north to Neuenlander Straße in the south. In the west and east, the district is bounded by the main traffic arteries Langemarckstraße and Friedrich-Ebert-Straße.
The streets in a rectangular grid are lined with - mostly renovated - old Bremen houses . The Pappelstraße forms with its shops, the center of the river district and performs functions for the surrounding districts. The oldest street is the Bachstraße, which in the early days of Bremen was one of the most important connecting routes from the city to the south .
Südervorstadt
Area: 0.28 km², 5336 inhabitants
The Südervorstadt is an elongated district between Friedrich-Ebert-Straße (border with the Neustadt district in the northwest) and Meyerstraße (border with the districts Gartenstadt Süd and Buntentor in the southeast). Neuenlander Straße is the border to the Neuenland district in the southwest. The Neustadtscontrescarpe and the Piepe are the border to the district of Alte Neustadt in the northeast, so the district protrudes a little over the Buntentorsteinweg . Three parallel main streets cross the district, these are Kornstraße , Gastfeldstraße and Thedinghauser Straße .
In the district there are mostly residential houses / row houses known as Bremen houses . They were built around 1880 to 1930. Many streets are named after philosophers, so the area is often called the Philosopher's Quarter.
Today's Friedrich-Ebert-Straße was not built until 1914, the land there was previously undeveloped. Even on a plan from 1927, this area was still shown as grassland, the predominant development in the south of this street, which is untypical for Bremen, with four to five-story apartment blocks with mostly clinker facades, was not built until 1930.
Garden City South
Area: 0.45 km², 4803 inhabitants
Between 1957 and 1960, almost at the same time as the Garden City of Vahr , the Garden City South was considerably enlarged by GEWOBA to include a large new building area. The urban planning was carried out by the architects Max Säum and Günther Hafemann , the green planning by Karlaugust Orf. The settlement between the guest box Street and New Lander Street was residential building in factual forms and initially comprised 2,700 apartments as eight-storey plate skyscrapers and mostly four-storey row houses . A distinct center did not arise. In the course of this expansion, the elementary and secondary school on Gottfried-Menken- Strasse, which was demolished again in June 2008, and the school on Karl-Lerbs- Strasse were built.
The silverware manufacturer Koch & Bergfeld am Kirchweg still resides in part in historical buildings that survived the Second World War.
Buntentor
Area: 0.52 km², 6755 inhabitants
The Buntentor is a district along the Kleine Weser, which is accessed by the three parallel streets Buntentorsteinweg , Kornstraße and Gastfeldstraße . Tram line 4 runs through Buntentorsteinweg. Tram line 6 ran through Gastfeldstrasse until 1967, starting at Kirchweg and leading to Hemmstrasse in Findorff. It was replaced by bus route 26 (now 26/27). The Städtische Galerie Buntentor , a center for the promotion of current art, is located on a former industrial site . On Buntentorsteinweg there is also the Schnürschuh Theater , which is primarily known as a children's and youth theater. At the corner of Kirchweg and Hardenbergstraße, the beguinage was built in 2001 on a former site of the Coca-Cola production as a residential project for women according to plans by Alexandra Czerne and Thalen Consult .
Neuenland
Area: 5.78 km², 1407 inhabitants
This district essentially consists of an area known as Airportstadt , which is the location of Bremen Airport . The district also houses the second largest Airbus site in Germany and the headquarters of Airbus Defense and Space for the field of manned spaceflight .
It is accessed through Neuenlander Strasse and the 281 federal motorway, which was largely built as an elevated road in 2008, with the Airportstadt exit .
Airportstadt-Ost is the location of the aerospace industry and is accessed by tram line 6, which ends here. The main street will be called Airbusallee and the other new streets will be named after aviation pioneers.
The airport, administration building and logistics-related companies are located in Airportstadt-Mitte. The wholesale market used to be in this area and is now located in Überseestadt .
The Melitta coffee roastery , formerly Carl Ronning , is located in Airportstadt-West, and there are still residential buildings around Bochumer Straße. In addition, the seat of the Bremer Straßenbahn AG is here . The Deutsche Post AG mail center is located on Hanna-Kunath-Straße.
Huckelriede
Area: 5.53 km², 6912 inhabitants
Huckelriede is characterized by an old structure south of Kornstrasse. Since 1999, new residential areas have emerged on Werdersee that have changed the district a lot, including, for example, the new residential areas Am Dammacker and Buntentorsdeich on Werdersee, which were created in former industrial areas.
The buildings of the Roland Clinic and the Bremen riot police as well as the Scharnhorst barracks used by the Bundeswehr are located on Niedersachsendamm .
The district of Huckelriede became known nationwide through the Gladbeck hostage drama in the summer of 1988. On August 17, 1988, a line 53 bus was kidnapped by hostage-takers at the local bus station. In the further course of the crime three people were killed. As a reminder, a stele with the names of the victims Silke Bischoff, Emanuele De Giorgi and Ingo Hagen was set up on the green strip of the Huckelriede bus station in March 2019 .
Politics, administration
Advisory Board
The Neustadt Advisory Board meets regularly and mostly publicly in the local office or in other institutions such as B. Schools. The advisory board is composed of the representatives of the political parties or individual candidates elected at the district level. The advisory board elections take place every four years, at the same time as the elections for the Bremen citizenship . The advisory board discusses all issues of the district that are of public interest and makes decisions on this, which are passed on to the administration, the state government and the townspeople. He forms specialist committees for his work. The advisory board has its own budget for district-related measures.
Local office
The Neustadt / Woltmershausen local office has existed since 1971 and is a local administrative authority. It supports the advisory board in its political work. It is intended to participate in all local tasks that are of public interest. Until 2006 there was a registration office in the local office where residents could, for example, change the entry in their ID card if they moved.
The local office is subject to a management that is elected by the advisory board and confirmed by the senate . Annemarie Czichon has been the local office manager since 2012.
history
Names
- Neustadt: In the 17th century, the fortress was expanded on the left bank of the Weser around today's Old Neustadt . The area was developed according to plan. In addition to the old town, a new town was created .
- Huckelriede was mentioned as Huckelryde in 1489. The name is made up of bumpy and reed , i.e. bumpy, swampy lowland.
- Buntentor and Hohentor come from the two previous city gates, Bunte Tor and Hohe Tor .
- Neuenlande was the name for a newly developed corridor and the street village there from the 13th century.
- Gartenstadt Süd is a leafy district that was designed as a garden city after the Second World War based on English and German models .
Middle Ages to 1800
In the 9th century a village with the name Ledense was mentioned, which was in the area of the later new town and in the 17th century had around 100 inhabitants. A first Weser bridge at the site of today's Wilhelm Kaisen Bridge was mentioned in 1244. The area on the left bank of the Weser south of the old town was referred to as Süderort . In 1303 an offshore island was mentioned as Mr. Alands Werder . It then belonged to the fishermen's office and was a landing stage and drying area for the fishermen called Fischerschlachte . The Neustadt area was partly owned by the Archbishopric of Bremen and the County of Hoya . A small wall fortification, the Borchwall or 1303 Borgwall , already existed in the 14th century.
In 1201 Archbishop Hartwig II granted the privilege of colonizing an area that was first mentioned in 1207 as Nielandt (1284: Nyenlande ) in the Bremen document book. Then a path was created that later became Neuenlander Straße .
In 1489 the citizens were obliged to finance the Huckelryde as a street and in 1563/64 the new Heerstraße could then be paved as a connection to the street Am Steinwege , today Buntentorsteinweg.
Fastening system
In 1522 a wall bastion was built between the Small and the Great Weser in front of the Weser Bridge with a forcing tower. The fortified tower Herrlichkeitzwinger, also known as the bride , was later used as a powder tower .
In the 17th century, the city fortifications of Bremen no longer met the latest military requirements. The area of the Schlachte, beyond the Neustadt, was unpaved, i.e. a weak point in the fortification system. For the siege wars of this time, with increasingly powerful cannons, it was necessary to completely rebuild the Bremen fortifications. From 1601, the fortification system was expanded according to plans by Johan van Rijswijck, who spoke out in favor of a fortification "with seven bulwarks" on the New Town side. It was not until 1623 - the Thirty Years War had begun - that the facilities to the left of the Weser were tackled on the basis of plans by Rijswijck and Johan van Valckenburgh and completed in 1627 with initially seven bastions . An arm of the Weser was filled in, making Alands Werder part of the left bank of the Weser. An eighth bulwark followed in 1664 on Tanzwerder , today's Stadtwerder. In the Neustadt there were only two passages from 1630 through the wall, the magnificent Hohe Tor and the unadorned Süder-Tor , later referred to as the Bunte Tor . The carters could spend the night in the taverns at the Hohen Tor Wappen of Osnabrück or City of Hanover and in the Golden Lion at the Bunter Tor. Today, Hohentorsplatz, Hohentorsstraße, Hohentorskirche and the Buntentor district and Buntentorsteinweg are reminiscent of the two gates and Bastionsstraße of one of the bastions.
Bremer Neustadt was not created out of space requirements, but rather to protect Bremen and its port all around with fortifications. This fortification only had to pass a practical test when Swedish troops besieged the city on the left bank of the Weser unsuccessfully in 1666 in the Second Bremen-Swedish War .
District developments
The area of today's Old New Town was initially only very sparsely populated. Since the new town was only slowly settled, the Bremen council issued privileges for the new town in 1642, u. a. a free but restricted civil right. The St. Pauli community initially resided only in a residential building since 1635th In 1679/82 the St. Pauli Church was built . As early as 1640 there was the St. Pauli parish school near the church . In 1648 she received a school house. The settlement took place first in the area of the Osterstrasse, Westerstrasse and Brautstrasse. In 1739 the glory pen (bride) exploded due to a lightning strike. It was completely destroyed and not rebuilt. However, Brautstrasse and the small bride bridge are reminiscent of the tower. Large areas of the Old New Town were still just garden land.
In 1737 the monument Kleiner Roland , also called Rolandbrunnen , was created by the sculptor Theophilus Wilhelm Frese , as a self-confident desire for more civil rights, which the old town denied them.
Around 1760, on the Steinwege , today's Buntentorsteinweg, construction began for cigar makers, carters and workers.
1800 to 1900
The fortifications were no longer up to date around 1800. It was removed from 1802, and vegetable gardens were created in many cases. From around 1819 the two gates were each replaced by the classicist pillar buildings destroyed in 1944 as guard and excise houses. The Hohe-Tor was demolished in 1823 and the Bunte-Tor in 1861. In 1812 the new town had 7,521 inhabitants. Since 1814 Neustadt citizens also took part in the citizens' conventions. In 1822 the still private Buntentorsfriedhof was built , which was taken over by Bremen in 1940. From the middle of the 19th century, industrial settlements for the production of coffee, beer, chocolate and cigars developed in the Neustadt.
The Buntentor became a cigar workers' quarter. The residents of the neighborhood were often disrespectfully referred to as Geelbeente (yellow-legged); perhaps due to the yellow legs that arose when smuggling tobacco or the clayey and therefore yellowish shoes or the yellow trousers of the carpenters and bricklayers.
It was not until 1863 that the citizens of Neustadt were legally equated with the citizens of the old town. At that time, mostly poorer, simpler citizens lived in Neustadt. Heinrich Schmidt-Barrien quotes a very telling, old Low German folk rhyme for this district:
- Mien Vadder is a cigar maker,
- mien Mudder chews tobacco,
- and if you don't want to globen,
- because ick yo in a sack.
Schools : The St. Pauli Parish School received a new building on Osterstraße in 1804. Extension buildings followed in 1857 and 1868. In 1909 the school was taken over by Bremen. The secondary school was the Bulthauptschule on Neustadtswall and in 1807 the school on Buntentorsteinweg with the existing buildings from 1861 and 1909. The Bulthauptschule was located in the middle of the 19th century at Große Johannisstraße 182, Weserstraße 77 and Westerstraße . In 1862, under the direction of Friedrich Heinrich Bulthaupt, the elementary school on Neustadtswall opened for 532 students. School expansions followed in 1864, 1869, 1887 and 1891. The school was destroyed in 1944.
On the Buntentorsteinweg, teaching started in 1807 in a house that was bought. A first school building was built in 1825 and a 6-class new building for 482 students in 1862, which had to be expanded again and again. The three-storey new building that has been preserved dates from 1909, the gymnasium from 1890. The public, preserved school on Kantstrasse was built in 1892 to relieve the aforementioned free schools .
The railway bridge was built in 1866. Then, from 1872 to 1875, the Kaiserbrücke was built on the site of today's Mayor Smidt Bridge . A waterworks - the upturned chest of drawers - was built on Stadtwerder in 1873. In 1875 Buntentor was incorporated. The Neustadtsgraben was filled in in 1891 except for the Piepe and the Hohentorshafen and instead green areas, parade grounds and barracks were created on it.
In 1880 the first horse-drawn tram line was opened in Neustadt. It drove from the market over the Great Weser Bridge to Kirchweg, from 1884 to Arsterdamm . The line was electrified in 1900 and is mainly used by today's line 4. However, the first electric tram in Neustadt drove over the Kaiserbrücke. This line was built in 1887, but electrified in 1890.
Friedrich Ebert , who later became President of the Reich, opened a pub on Brautstrasse in 1894 , which was a center of union and political activities. The technical center, today's Bremen University of Applied Sciences , initially developed in the school building on Kleine Allee. In 1906 the existing building on Langemarckstrasse could be moved into.
From 1900
In 1905 the new town had 13,708 and the southern suburb 28,461 inhabitants. The area between Buntentorsteinweg and Woltmershausen was built on with row houses of different sizes for the petty bourgeoisie and workers. The surviving school on Oderstrasse was inaugurated in 1909 as a primary school and the school on Mainstrasse in 1913 as auxiliary school I (today the support center).
After the First World War , allotments were created on Stadtwerder. Social housing on Friedrich-Ebert-Strasse and Kornstrasse alleviated the most urgent housing shortage by 1933. The Neuenland was incorporated into the city of Bremen in 1921. The industrial settlement and the construction of the airport began. In 1923 the Focke-Wulf -Werke was founded on the Neuenlander Feld .
Nazi era
During the Nazi era (see also Bremen at the time of National Socialism ) the Focke-Wulf factory developed into a major armaments production company. The Jewish metal goods dealer Heinrich Rosenblum ( Thedinghauser Straße ) and the bicycle dealer Selma Zwienicki (Hohentorstraße) were murdered by the SA during the November pogroms in 1938 on the so-called Reichskristallnacht .
From 1935 a residential area was built on the street Huckelriede . The area was soon also called Huckelriede. The Hindenburg barracks were built here in 1935/36 . The third road bridge was built from 1936 to 1939 on the site of today's Stephanibrücke , which was bombed in 1944. The air raids in 1944/45 destroyed most of the old new town. All other bridges over the Weser were blown up by the Wehrmacht in the last days of the war.
Reconstruction after 1945
As in the west of Bremen, reconstruction began in Neustadt in the 1950s. Industrial and commercial enterprises expanded along the Weser, z. B. Haake-Beck, Beck & Co., Hachez, Jacobs. From 1956 the construction of the garden city south took place . The private Roland Clinic was established in Huckelriede in 1949, and from 1952 the riot police occupied the barracks next to it. The Werdersee - as a flood channel for the Weser - was created from 1953 to 1956. The dredged sand was the base material for the new Huckelried cemetery from 1956. The Huckelriede high school and school center will be built in sections from 1961 to 1967.
The Focke-Wulf-Werke were allowed to produce aircraft again from 1956. In 1961, the two Bremen aircraft manufacturers, Focke-Wulf -Flugzeugbau GmbH and Weser-Flugzeugbau GmbH, merged . They outsourced the space departments and founded the ERNO company .
In 1960 the new town had 74,231 inhabitants.
From 1999 onwards, Bremen Airport was rebuilt and the Airport City business location expanded . With the relocation of tram line 6 and the completion of a section of the Autobahn 281 in 2008, the area was better developed.
The Teerhof, which was almost completely destroyed in the war, was built with residential and commercial buildings from 1990 to 2008/09. A pedestrian bridge has been connecting the peninsula with the old town since the 1990s.
