The Parkhof ( Danish Parkgården ) is a residential courtyard in Flensburg and is a cultural monument of the Mürwik district . The courtyard was built between 1925 and 1928 at the local naval base Flensburg-Mürwik (the district support point ). The residential quarter is laid out in the style of homeland security architecture and is characterized by its uniform architectural design language.

history

At the same time as the Parkhof, the residential buildings for members of the Navy were built on Kelmstrasse (see also Fördestrasse 1 ), each of which was intended to serve as service housing for officers and NCOs at the base, which at that time housed only institutions and units of the Reichsmarine . But already after the Second World War , the houses in the park yard were inhabited by civilians.

However, the farm only got its name about 20 years after completion, on March 28, 1947. The name of the park courtyard does not refer to its landscaped green spaces, but to the Mürwiker Park of the merchant Heinrich Göttigs , which was located on Swinemünder Straße. The park's actual legacy was taken over by the nearby Volkspark . The city renamed the adjacent Parkstrasse to Swinemünder Strasse on December 8, 1955 , after the city of Swinemünde , for which Flensburg took over the sponsorship . The park courtyard is still inhabited by civilians to this day.

architecture

The settlement, built in the homeland security style, was built according to plans by the architect Karl Bernt and, to a large extent, also according to plans by the architect Karl Frehse . The houses on Swinemünder Straße form the front of the park courtyard and are therefore part of the ensemble. The ceramic relief of the wall fountain at Swinemünder Straße 8 comes from Fritz Theilmann , who also created the ceramic reliefs for the residential building Fördestraße 1 . The houses in the courtyard are characterized by a villa-like shape. In the middle of the courtyard there is a green area and some parking spaces. The transverse structure at the end of the park courtyard, in which a gate system is embedded that is similar to the entrance gate of the park courtyard, has a particularly splendid effect. More ceramics by Fritz Theilmann can be found in the park courtyard itself.

Surrounding development

The radio and telegraph house (Flensburg-Mürwik) is located next to the Parkhof, in the neighboring Swinemünder Straße 12 . The school for strategic reconnaissance of the Bundeswehr borders to the north and west of the park yard . Behind the parking yard buildings on the west side is a very long building, the drill hall or Morse hall (cf. torpedo station ), the only building at the base that has remained structurally almost unchanged from its early days. To the east on Swinemünder Straße there is an equally lavishly designed building and to the northeast is the Mürwiker troop crew bunker from the time of the Second World War , on whose roof a penthouse has been resting since 2009 . The penthouse with its bunker is one of the most bizarre houses in Germany. The old center of Mürwik, Klosterholz, is located southeast of the park courtyard .
