history

In 1835, the four suburbs to the east of the old town, Fischer-Gemeinde , Rampische , Pirnische and Borngasser-Gemeinde - each named after the street through them - were combined to form the Pirnaische Vorstadt. Since 1877, the eastern part of the Pirnaische Vorstadt has formed the independent Johannstadt district.
