history
Surname
The street and the square were named after the Schelfstadt district, which was an independent town as Schelfe (or Neustadt ) until 1832. The Low German meaning for shelves stands for schelp as reeds that used to stretch from the bag , a bay of the Schweriner See, to the Pfaffenteich in the area with swampy soils .
development
The Schelfstadt, originally the Schelfe , since 1349 also Neustadt , has developed as an initially independent place since the 11th century. In 1705 it received city rights. The engineer-Capitain Jacob Reutz († 1710) was significantly involved in the first urban planning in 1705 and u. a. the straightened path connection towards the Schelfthor and the old town was laid down in a declaration . A later building regulation prescribed the eaves and the height of the houses.
The New Town Hall was built around 1740 on the Great Market . The shelf received its own constitution in 1769. The Lehmann house was acquired in 1776 and converted into a representative town hall. In 1763/65 the dukes' residence was relocated to Ludwigslust and the development of the Schelfstadt stagnated. 1832 was the union of the old town of Schwerin with the new town with over 4100 inhabitants; the town hall received other functions.
In the area north of the shelf market, very little had happened despite the 1705 planning. In 1837 Grand Duke Paul Friedrich moved the ducal court from Ludwigslust to Schwerin. Court building director Jean Legeay criticized the previous building practice in 1750 and was commissioner for the development of the new town. In 1757 a modified city map became binding. The Schelftadt now expanded in a northerly direction to form a heavily mixed district with craftsmen, breweries, merchants, workers and service providers.
In World War II there were few losses to buildings. The construction maintenance of the houses was however severely neglected in the 1950s to 1990s; Partial areas were threatened with demolition. In 1988 a citizens' initiative tried to prevent the worst. In October 1989 the first Monday demonstration took place in Schwerin with 40,000 participants on the shelf market. With the political change , the renewal of the district could be initiated.
As part of urban development funding , large parts of the Schelfstadt were redeveloped in 1991 ; the streets and houses were renovated.
In terms of traffic , the road is opened up by bus line 11 operated by Nahverkehr Schwerin GmbH (NVS). From 1908 to 1969 tram line 2 ran from Lehmstraße and Taubenstraße to Friedrichstraße and Marienplatz.
