Pieperstrasse (Hanover)

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
BW

Pieperstrasse in Hanover is a historic street in the former village and now the Hanover district of Wülfel . According to a tradition , the name goes back to the court master Carl Pieper, who lived in Wülfel at the time of the Kingdom of Hanover at the beginning of industrialization , whose exact life data could not be determined more than a century later by the archivist Helmut Zimmermann .

In 1901 Pieperstrasse was given its current official name. The Hanoverian History Papers, which were still published in the German Empire in 1914, explained the street name as a reminder of "a certain Pieper who lived here many years ago and whose courtyard was occupied on the street in question".

Already in the 1980s, only the house still recalled leading from the village road to Stiegelmeyerstraße historic street Pieperstraße 14 to the rural past of this place.
