history

Surname

The Pastorenweg was named after the pastors' path to the Waller Church responsible for the parish . Before the incorporation in Gröpelingen, the village street had no street names and the house numbers were valid for the whole village.

development

In the village of Gröpelingen there was the paved village road and sandy field paths before 1900. The six hectare Meyer'sche estate (formerly No. 147) belonged to the tobacco merchant Eberhard Tölken, who in 1888 designed the landscape park with manor house based on plans by Wilhelm Benque . From 1890 to 1900 the cotton merchant Eduard Meyer was the owner of the estate and he named it Lindenhof. The former number 148 on today's Lindenhofstrasse was Pastor Dietr's Johannisstift children's custody. Cook. The Pastorenweg originally led to the Waller Church. With the construction of the Waller Friedhof this route connection was interrupted.

The expansion of the ports and the location of Werft AG Weser changed the place extensively. In 1905 building contractors bought Gut Lindenhof , laid roads and built on the area since 1906, including on Pastorenweg. The Lindenhof district now became a typical working-class district for employees. In the Second World War in Gröpelingen great destruction took place. Today (2019) the district has around 8,000 inhabitants. With the arrival of guest workers and other immigrants since the 1960s, it has developed into a multicultural district. The closure of AG Weser in 1983 was a decisive event. Since the beginning of the 21st century, the district has also been preferred as a place of residence by students and artists.
