history
In the Middle Ages, Veldener Straße led out of the Philippstor to the Johanniter- or Malteser- Kommende Velden , which was founded in 1290 and which gave the street its name. The mill pond flowed to the west of the road and the Stadtbach to the east. Both streams drove different mills. Hence the former industrial development.
