Packing halls X and XIV in the fishing port
The pack halls X and XIV in Bremerhaven - fishing port , fish auctions road 1 to 37 or Am Lunedeich 42-104, originated 1928/29 or 1939/40. The buildings have been a listed building in Bremen since 2013 .
history
The deep-sea fishing in the region developed and from the 1885th a. by the shipowner Friedrich Busse . The first fish auction took place in 1888. From 1891 to 1896 the fishing port I was built in Geestemünde and from 1921 to 1925 the fishing port II. In 1924 Geestemünde and Lehe were united to form the Prussian city of Wesermünde . Prussia built numerous packing halls for private fish mail order businesses. They were administered by the fishing port cooperative of traders and shipowners.
The architecture of the packing halls is relatively similar. Most of the two-storey buildings have a covered loading ramp on the side, the offices on the upper floor and the commercial space on the back. Until 1925, the ground floor could be partly under water during high tides; the double lock protected the harbor from 1925. In 1937 Wesermünde had the second largest fishing port in the world.
Hall X from 1928/29 was designed by government building officer Emil Vogel and government building master Wucherpfennig from the Prussian hydraulic engineering authority Wesermünde and Karl Zeh. Hall X was the central building as a packing and auction hall.
Halls XII and XIV, several hundred meters long, were built between 1936 and 1940. Due to the war, work on Hall XIV was stopped in 1940. The planners were chief building officer Emil Vogel and government building assessor Störr from the water engineering authority.
Fish auctions have been held again since 1949. In 1950 the auction hall X-Nord was built. The fast-talking fish auctioneers of Bremerhaven's Fischereihafen-Betriebsgesellschaft , which were barely understandable for laypeople, were known nationwide . Until the 1960s, the fishing port was the largest on mainland Europe. In 1971 the fishing port became a district of Bremerhaven. From the 1970s, the amount of fish landings decreased significantly; the processing of fish and frozen food took over the successor. In 2008 the actual fishing port was around 450 hectares.
The ceramic pictures above the doors come from the ceramist and draftsman Willi Ohler from Worpswede .
