history

Surname

The Werderstraße was named after the Stadtwerder as a river peninsula, a low area between the Weser and the Little Weser , a two-kilometer-long tributary of the Weser. Werder generally means river island.

development

In the Middle Ages, Stadtwerder was an area not secured by dikes, which was flooded when the tides were high. The area, also called Kuhwerder , was used as pastureland. In 1433 the pastures in front of the city became the property of the community. The two shepherds houses of the cowherds of 1662 and the Krahenberg were on higher mounds . Otherwise there were still a few stalls on the Werder. In 1872 Stadtwerder became part of the urban area. The most striking building is the historicizing water tower from 1873, colloquially known as the "upside down chest of drawers" due to its shape. Around 1900 the bathing establishment on Werderstraße was relocated to Osterdeich near Sielwall . From 1917 to 1927 the headquarters of the State Building Materials Testing Institute (now the Official Materials Testing Institute of the Free Hanseatic City of Bremen (MPA Bremen)) was on Werderstrasse near the building yard . After the First World War, allotments were created on Stadtwerder.

The Werdersee is a lake in the flood channel of the Kleiner Weser, created between 1953 and 1960 according to plans by Wilhelm Hübotter and enlarged between 1981 and 1987. In 1968 a weir was built into the Kleine Weser near its mouth.

In addition to the water tower, a new residential area has been built on the Stadtwerder since 2010, after swb AG sold the 10-hectare outdoor area to various investors and a development plan was drawn up in 2000 .

The tram Bremen affected with the lines 4 ( Lilienthal - Arsten ), 6 ( University - airport ) and 8 ( Huchting - Kulenkampffallee ) the road at Franziuseck / Wilhelm-Kaisen bridge and line 4 at the stop Kirchweg corner Buntentorsteinweg .

In local transport in Bremen, bus line 24 (Rablinghausen ↔ Neue Vahr-Nord) touches the Franziuseck.
