history

Surname

The Obotritenring was named after the Elbe Slavic tribal association as an early inhabitant of Mecklenburg . The name is derived from the tribe of the Abodrites , who lived around Wismar and Schwerin since the end of the 7th century. Prince Niklot (around 1100–1160) is the progenitor of the dukes and grand dukes of Mecklenburg who ruled until 1918.

development

Crossing Wismarsche Straße - Obotritenring

After Grand Duke Paul Friedrich moved the ducal court from Ludwigslust to Schwerin in 1837 , the city expanded to the west according to plans by court architect Georg Adolf Demmler ; the Paulsstadt and the Feldstadt expanded. The old cemetery was built west of the street in 1863. In the same year the internal tariffs fell away and the border wall lost its function; a first settlement west of the wall could arise. In 1857 Demmler presented plans to expand the city to include a new district west of the Obotritenring; the plan was not approved by the citizens in 1866. It was not until the 20th century from the 1920s that more and more buildings were built on the west side of the street. The Weststadt did not develop until 1955. The Obotritenring was expanded to four lanes in the 1930s, whereby the bottleneck at the railway underpass could not be removed until 2001. After 1962 there was an Intershop on Rogahner Strasse / Obotritenring

In terms of traffic , the street is opened up by bus lines 10 and 11 and crossed by tram line 2 and bus line 12 of Nahverkehr Schwerin GmbH (NVS).
