The South Avenue is a road on the outskirts of Trier Old Town . It runs parallel to Kaiserstraße from the banks of the Moselle to the Kaiserthermen and is only used as a one-way street in a west-east direction.

history

The name of the street is derived from its location in the city. It is located on the southern edge of the medieval old town of Trier and was therefore part of the Trier city wall until the 19th century. The road was laid out in 1788 and planted with nut trees. The current facility was built in 1886.

Cultural monuments

There are five cultural monuments in the street , including the Barbarathermen and the Trier indoor swimming pool from the early 1930s, which is still used in this form today. In addition, the buildings at Südallee 30–32 are part of the monument zone Eberhardstraße 1–57 (odd numbers), 2–48 (even numbers), Gilbertstraße 16, 17, 18, Nikolausstraße 34, Südallee 30, 31, 32, Weidegasse 1, 3, 5, 7, 9 .

While four of the buildings are distinguished by their historicizing architectural style from the turn of the century around 1900, the indoor swimming pool, on the other hand, is a relic of the Bauhaus style. The indoor pool, which had already been rebuilt in the 1980s, was rebuilt and refurbished in July 2016.

Südallee is still located in the green belt monument zone . These include the Südallee bastion , also known as the Red Tower, a round tower built after 1540 and the rest of the former medieval city fortifications.

The stage - a former newspaper kiosk, located in the green belt at Neustraße, was redesigned into an exhibition space in 2009 by students of the courses in architecture and interior design at Trier University of Applied Sciences. The exhibits are visible from the outside through the windows and can therefore be admired regardless of opening times.
