Schöneworth (Hanover)

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Junction of the street Vordere Schöneworth from Engelbosteler Damm at the former factory of Appel Feinkost (today: Carl-Morotini-Haus )

Schöneworth , also Schöneworde or Schonenforde , was the name of a medieval village near Hanover , which was in what is now the Hanover district of Nordstadt . Later, the corridor of the same name was located here east of Engelbosteler Damm , over which the streets Vordere Schöneworth and Hintere Schöneworth lead today .

Schöneworth

Similar to the street Am Puttenser Felde , Schöneworth was one of the two localities in what is now the Nordstadt district, whose documentary mention can be traced back to the year 1062. Mentioned as Schonenforde in 1395 , the place fell desolate in the same century .

At the time of the Electorate of Hanover , a garden path had emerged there as early as 1730, which served the so-called " garden cossacks " in front of the stone gate in the stone gate field .

At the time of the Kingdom of Hanover , the path, which was evidently converted into a street as early as 1830, was probably named after the former field name .

After the formation of the suburb of Hanover in 1843, the front part of the street, between Engelbosteler Damm and Schulzenstraße , was named Hainhölzer Kirchweg from 1846 at the latest , according to the Hannoversche Geschichtsbl Blätter , so it was named after the route to Hainholz to St.-Marien -Church .

The rear part of the street was initially called "Hinter-Schöneworth" at the same time.

After the suburbs were incorporated into Hanover in 1859, in the course of industrialization, according to the “ Address Book of the Royal Residence City of Hanover ” around 1868, mainly workers were already living in apartment buildings on Hainhölzer Kirchweg . In keeping with the zeitgeist of that time , the address books listed the names of the heads of household, usually the patriarchs , in addition to the professions at the time .

The section between Schulzenstrasse and the railway that adjoins the former Hainhölzer Kirchweg was initially called “Hinter Schöneworth”. It was not until the founding years of the German Empire that the two streets were merged on November 4, 1899 under the new - old - name "Schöneworth".

At the time of National Socialism , there was a subsidiary camp of the Hanoverian slave labor camp of the Deutsche Reichsbahn in Schöneworth .

Half a century later and in the course of the renovation and redesign of the northern part of the city and its streets, Schöneworth was renamed Vordere Schöneworth and Hintere Schöneworth again in 1997 - and in the following years 1998 and 1999 a green area with playgrounds was created between the two streets ; the Möhringsberg district park .

In 2011, the Iranian Library Association in Hanover moved to a rear building at Vordere Schöneworth 17a .
