history
Surname
The already existing Heerstraße was named after the earlier stone gate on Dobben in 1704 Auserm Steintor, 1855 Steintorssteinstraße and 1870 Vor dem Steintor .
development
In the Middle Ages, a trade route led from the Domburg in Bremen on the dunes along the Weser in the direction of Verden .
The lifting of the gate lock to Bremen's old town and the legal equality of the suburbs with the city citizens in the middle of the 19th century made moving to the suburbs more attractive. The cross streets were built around 1854 to 1872. Often smaller houses were built. In the years that followed, the one to two-storey gabled houses of the old suburban buildings were replaced one after the other by eaves houses in the style of historicism and the Wilhelminian era as now residential and commercial buildings.
In 1929 the Schauburg cinema was the first film theater with sound in Bremen.
During the Second World War , the eastern suburb was one of the parts of the city that was only slightly destroyed by bombing. After the war, Das Viertel developed on the streets Vor dem Steintor and Ostertorsteinweg , consisting of the districts Ostertor and Steintor and known as a bar, restaurant and strolling mile with many shops, specialist shops and specialty shops. The Lagerhaus cultural center on nearby Schildstrasse has been developing since 1978.
traffic
In 1879 a horse-drawn tram line from Hastedt to Walle was opened and electrified around 1900. The Ringbahn was added in 1881. In 1908 line numbers from 1 to 8 were introduced. In 1920, the new line 12 to the Osterholz cemetery was put into operation, which existed until 1952. Line 10 discontinued the section through St.-Jürgen-Straße in 1963 and, coming from Steintor in 1963, ran like line 2 to the Bennigsenstraße stop, then via a newly built single-track route to the new Georg-Bitter-Straße terminal and back in the direction West like line 3 via Hamburger Straße.
The Bremen tram runs through the street today with line 2 ( Gröpelingen - Sebaldsbrück ), line 3 (Gröpelingen - Weserwehr ) and line 10 (Gröpelingen - Hauptbahnhof - Sebaldsbrück).
