Wasserloos (formerly rare: Waterless; Danish . Vandløs ) is the name of a small village, as part of Twedt to Flensburg was incorporated.

history

The first known mention of the small place comes from 1632, then under the Danish name “Vandløs”, meaning “waterless place”. At that time, the small Katendorf Wasserloos still belonged to the Husbyharde and Flensburg's development had not yet grown. Shortly afterwards, for the year 1634, the Anglo-Danish variant of the name "Wainloß" is handed down; and from 1691 the German name "waßerloß" is documented. Furthermore, the Low German name "Waterlos" or "Waterloos" was common for the village since the 18th century . In Low German there was also the reinterpreted variant "Waterlock", which meant "water hole". Since 1847, the variant "Wasserloos" apparently finally prevailed.

The nucleus of the small village Wasserloos was where the street "Wasserloos" is today. Wasserloos is said to have got its name because there used to be no pond or fountain there. The residents of Wasserloos were therefore "waterless" and had to bring the water from a well spring that was more than 60 meters away from the Wasserloos at a paddock near Kauslund . In 1840 the village consisted of only five cottages with few residents. It was not until the 1870s that a well was dug in Wasserloos and a water pump was installed, which ended the waterless period. In the 1880s the route of the Flensburg circular railway was built , which stopped at the nearby Kauslund. The new water supply also benefited a nursery located there. In 1910 Wasserloos was finally incorporated as part of Twedt.

On March 20, 1924, the name of the street Wasserloos was officially recorded. Between 1925 and 1934 the Flensburg tram ran on the route of the Kreisbahn . In the time after that the circular path drove on the route again. During the Second World War , the nursery (Wasserloos number 5) as a food producer belonged to war-important companies. The circular path continued on its route until the 1950s. But then it was replaced by federal highway 199 , which has since separated Wasserloos from the Wasserloos district.

After the Second World War, the Flensburg districts of Fruerlund and Mürwik in particular grew strongly due to the refugees and displaced persons who had arrived . On December 5, 1963, the street in the center of the Wasserloos district was given its name Wasserlooser Weg. The Schottweg into which it flows has probably existed since the 18th century. At this confluence on Schottweg, the Schottweg-Zentrum was built in the early 1970s and until the 1980s the P & Q supermarket was located, which was later named Eurospar. Although the center is in the Wasserloos district and therefore in Flensburg, it has since also taken on a local supply function for Engelsby.

From the 1980s, a large number of single-family houses were built in the eastern part of Engelsby , including to the west, south and east of Wasserloos Street. The buildings now standing on Wasserloos Street are no older than they were from the imperial era . Only the core of the heavily changed house number 3 should be older.

In 2004 the supermarket at the Schottweg center was taken over by the famila hypermarket chain . After an expansion in 2011, the center has an area of ​​7,000 square meters. Today, in addition to famila, the Schottweg center houses a bakery, a hairdresser, a post office, a travel agency, a shop for Greek specialties, a dm-drogerie markt , a Takko branch and a branch of the Danish bed warehouse . There is also a petrol station at the Schottweg center. Since the construction of the eastern bypass, the accessibility of Wasseloos and its center has been increased considerably. On the road link Schottweg- Friedheim , who is Twedter Plack , the center Mürwiks also within easy reach.

The street names around the street "Wasserloos" indicate that the area in question is now part of Kauslund.
