history

Surname

Friedrich Schiller (par Bendixen) .jpg

Schillerstrasse was named after the doctor, poet and philosopher Friedrich Schiller (1759-1805). He is considered one of the most important German dramatists, lyric poets and essayists. Many of his plays such as Die Räuber , Kabale und Liebe , Don Karlos , Wallenstein , Maria Stuart and The Maiden of Orléans are part of the standard repertoire of German-speaking theaters. It was of central importance for the development of a German national consciousness.

development

Geestemünde, right the Schillerstr.

Gestenthorpe was first mentioned in 1139 . In the Middle Ages, the village was owned by the Diocese of Bremen . In 1715 Geestendorf came to the Electorate of Braunschweig-Lüneburg , later the Kingdom of Hanover and, from 1866, the Prussian Province of Hanover . In 1850 there were 1071 inhabitants. In 1863, the Paschschule started teaching as the second elementary school at Schillerstraße 14. In 1875 the Christ Church in Bremerhaven-Geestemünde was inaugurated.

From 1845 Geestemünde was created as a port city by the Kingdom of Hanover. Geestemünde was created in 1889 through the merger of the two communities Geestemünde and Geestendorf.

In the city map from around 1901, the street ends at Grünenstrasse (today Georg-Seebeck-Strasse); after 1918 it was extended.

Geestemünde-Süd is a closed urban development that was built for the workers in the fishing port after the First World War. After the amalgamation of Geestemünde, Lehe and Alt-Bremerhaven (1927), a number of streets had to be renamed as they already existed, mostly in Alt-Bremerhaven.

The air raids on Wesermünde destroyed many buildings in the north-western area near the port.
