Tollerort (Hamburg)
Tollerort is a quay tongue in the Port of Hamburg and until the beginning of the 20th century was the name of the confluence of the Köhlbrand , a tributary of the Süderelbe , into the Norderelbe , between the Elbe islands of Kuhwärder ( Steinwerder ) and Kleiner Maakenwärder ( Waltershof ).
Surname
The name has the meaning of Zollort , derived from Toll or Toller for customs , and is due to the fact that the border between Danish and Hamburg territory was here until the conclusion of the Gottorp Treaty in 1768 . Presumably there was a customs post on site . It is entered as Dolt Orth on a map by Gustav Adolf von Varendorf from the end of the 18th century .
use
East of the estuary, Hamburg maintained a wooden beacon with an elevator light from 1869 to 1913 , which, like the beacons on the Ross , on Waltershof and the Kleiner Kattwyk , had been erected at Prussia's expense in accordance with the first coal fire contract of 1868 .
In the course of the further development of the Port of Hamburg and on the basis of the Third Köhlbrand Treaty of 1908, the estuary was relocated about 500 meters to the west in 1913 and Tollerort was expanded as a harbor basin . The name carried over to the quay tongue between the coal ship port and the outer port of the imperial ports, on which the free port border ran on Tollerortweg .
In 1917 the Janssen & Schmilinsky shipyard , which was previously located on Schanzenweg in Steinwerder, built an enlarged shipbuilding site on the eastern side of Tollerort. After its bankruptcy , Howaldtswerke , Kiel, took over the shipyard on January 1, 1929 and included it in the expansion of Howaldtswerft Hamburg . The factory section was shut down as early as 1931.
The Tollerort container terminal (CTT) has been located on the quay tongue since 1977 , and due to the growing space requirements for container storage , a large part of the coal ship port was filled in in the following years.
Ferry VII
From the beginning of the 20th century, the Ferry VII of HADAG Seetouristik und Fährdienst AG Tollerort started calling and was one of the most important connections in the port's passenger traffic in the heyday of the Hamburg shipyards . From the 1970s it had the numbering line 77 , in 2002 it was discontinued. In 1937 the writer Hans Leip published both a novel and a poem under the title Fähre VII in the collection Die kleine Hafenorgel , which was set to music by Norbert Schultze .
In the afternoon of ferry VII
