history
The western ring area was created at the end of the 19th century according to plans by Ludwig Winter as part of the Wilhelminian era belt around the historic city center of Braunschweig , today's city center district .
The district was largely shaped by industry. Well-known companies are u. a. the Braunschweigische Maschinenbauanstalt , which was built in 1853 on Bahnhofstrasse. As a result of industrialization, entire residential areas for the workers emerged in the quarter. The plans for the ring area were never fully implemented, some streets were never built, others only partially built on. Part of the southern half was partially built on in the 1920s and 1930s.
An important part of the planning was the Braunschweiger Ring , a ring-shaped road system around the historic city center. This was laid out relatively broad, as a promenade for pedestrians was to be created in the middle of the ring. The western ring area has remained almost unchanged since the 1940s, with only a few new houses built since then.
