Jürgensbyer Hügel with St. Jürgen's Church

 

Jürgensby ( Danish : Jørgensby ; Sønderjysk : Jørnsby ; Petuh and Low German Jürnsby ) is a district of Flensburg which, after the incorporation of Süder- and Norder-St. Jürgen in 1874, the Hohlwege in 1877 and the rural community of Jürgensgaard in 1900, developed from said areas.

The district, sometimes referred to as Flensburgs Blankenese due to its hillside location , is part of the Angelner Hügelland . This is why the locals believe they are in Jürgensby and not in Jürgensby, according to their self- image .

history

ERP settlement on Glücksburger Strasse

Nucleus of the town was a leper - Hospital near the town of Flensburg, its patron saint, St. George ( Low German Jürgen , Danish Jørgen ) was. It was on a hill where the path from the Flensburg Johannisviertel , the path to the ballast bridge and to Fruerlund crossed. After the Reformation , the hospital was merged with four other Flensburg foundations to form a new hospital institution, with the Franciscan monastery of St. Katharinen in downtown Flensburg being retained and the St. Jürgen site abandoned. To the southwest of the former medieval hospital, the St. Jürgen settlement grew into a suburb of Flensburg. Agriculture was practiced east of St. Jürgen. Jürgensgaard, as this settlement area was called, still consisted of four independent courtyards and two cottages in 1840, but all of which were subordinate to the Flensburg Hospital. The same was true of the settlement Kate Bredenberg , a part of the area ravines, which at the south end of the district Jürgensgaarder on the developed in the 1840s road from Flensburg to Glücksburg was. This locality, which was finally expanded suburban from the 1870s, was sometimes also called Jürgensgaardfeld. Another Katensiedlung, abandoned by Jürgensgaard, was Blasberg north of the Lautrupsbach valley. Of this place, however, only half belonged to the hospital; the rest was under the authority of Flensburg. The Adelby area Vogelsang and Blocksberg also belonged to the St. Jürgen Hospital. In 1853 the jurisdiction of the Flensburg Hospital was abolished. From then on, Jürgensgaard, like the entire Adelby parish, was under the administration of the local authority.

In 1864 the Duchy of Schleswig became Prussian. After the communal reforms carried out from 1867 on, Jürgensgaard formed an independent rural community in the Flensburg district. In addition to the mentioned villages Jürgensgaard This included ravines and Bredenberg and Blasberg also directly on the conveyor located Kielseng . - Blasberg and Kielseng are now part of Fruerlund. - With the incorporation of Norder- and Süder-Sankt-Jürgen in 1874 and the Hohlwege in 1875, the border of the city of Flensburg moved on a broad front to the Juergensgaard district. Initially, Bredeberg in particular developed more and more into a Flensburg suburb as an extension of the Norderhohlweg on the Glücksburger Chaussee; This is where the later widely known Adelby dairy was built. With the construction of the Flensburg-Kieler Eisenbahn in 1881, the Flensburg District Railway from 1885 (and later also with the construction of the Nordstrasse ( Bundesstrasse 199 ) in Lautrupsbachtal), Jürgensgaard was spatially separated from the northern part of the municipality. The high-lying Jürgensgaard became a preferred residential area in Flensburg in the 1890s, not least thanks to the beautiful view over the old town opposite. In 1900 it was incorporated into Flensburg. After 1900, Jürgensgaard was urbanized according to the land use plan drawn up by Josef Stübben , with both villas and apartments. In 1907 the new St. Jürgen Church , which has dominated the local situation ever since, was inaugurated on the site of the former leprosy hospital. The village of Blasberg was connected to the city with the construction of the new main connection to Mürwik in 1912. In the 1920s and increasingly in the 1950s, it was structurally more and more a part of Fruerlund and was consequently assigned to this district. The same applies to Kielseng, which fell victim to the expansion of the east port as a residential area. The southwest of the old Fruerlund, in turn, became part of Jürgensby. The imposing building of the Goethe School by Paul Ziegler was built between 1914 and 1919 and has since dominated a large part of the hillside of Jürgensby. Incidentally, some of the old courtyards in Jürgensgaard remained in existence for a longer period until numerous, sometimes very large, new buildings were built in Jürgensgaard in the 1970s.

Structure of the district

St. Jürgen Church
(built 1903-1907)

Today the district consists of four districts:

St. Johannis

St. Johannis ( Danish : Sankt Hans ), among other things to avoid confusion with Adelby , often referred to as Johannisviertel , is located near the center of Flensburg . The Johannisviertel with its St. Johannis Church is one of the four original settlement centers of the city of Flensburg . It is considered to be the nucleus of the Flensburg city ​​center . As the actual, but less well-known nucleus of the city, Adelby with its church St. Johannis is considered . In the Johannisviertel there is also an area where a castle is said to have stood (cf. Dammhof area ). Considerable urban damage was caused in the 1960s when the Flensburg Chamber of Crafts was rebuilt in the aforementioned area.

St. Jürgen

St. Jürgen ( Danish : Sankt Jørgen ) is the nucleus of the district with the church and the captain's quarter .

Juergensgaard

The district of Jürgensgaard ( Danish : Jørgensgård or Jørgensgaard ) is east of St. Johannis and St. Jürgen. Jürgensgaard formed an independent rural community in the Flensburg district from around 1869 to 1900 . However, it was incorporated into the independent city of Flensburg in 1900 . This incorporation gave the district most of its extension.

Flensburg-Juergensby transmitter

The eastern area of ​​the district, which was named after the transmitter (also pencil ) that was located there. Today, in addition to the city district name, the old transmitter building and the street Am Sender remind of the former transmitter. On May 7, 1945, Lutz von Schwerin-Krosigk announced the unconditional surrender of the Wehrmacht via the Jürgensbyer transmitter , the end of World War II in Europe ( VE-Day ). The provisional seat of the imperial government was located in the nearby district of Mürwik . The Flensburg transmitter is now in Vogelsang in Engelsby . The municipality also includes parts of Fruerlundmühle on the outskirts of Engelsby .

Central areas

Jürgensby does not have a centrally located local supply center . On the southern edge, however, is the oat market , where there are shops. A little further down the valley is the Flensburg city center . Another shopping option is the Twedter Plack in Mürwik, which can be reached directly via Bismarckstrasse , which can be reached directly by extending Mürwiker Strasse and Fördestrasse.

Sankt-Jürgen-Platz , with the Bremerplatz next to it , above the Hafermarkt forms an optical central area in the form of a green area . There is an Asian fast-food restaurant with delivery service on Sankt-Jürgen-Platz and a pharmacy called Adler-Apotheke was there for a long time . The pharmacy's distinctive eagle is still clearly visible from the square above the entrance to the corner building. The Bremer space now serves as a playground. At Sankt-Jürgen-Platz some bus connections from Twedter Plack to the city center run together; On the one hand the city lines and the regional line from Glücksburg via the stadium, on the other hand the (former) AFAG lines via Engelsby.
