The Wilhelmstrasse is one of the main shopping streets in the city Altenkirchen in Altenkirchen in Rhineland-Palatinate . Starting at Schloßplatz, it runs from northeast to southwest, crossing the town's market square and ending at the intersection of Kölner Strasse and Quengelstrasse, before the level crossing of the Altenkirchen-Au (Sieg) railway line .
location
Wilhelmstrasse (formerly “Vordergasse”), named in 1893, is one of the main shopping streets in Altenkirchen and has been a pedestrian zone since the mid-1980s . It was a thoroughfare until November 28, 1982 ; the connecting roads to the north ( Rathausstrasse towards Hachenburg and Wissen ), to the east ( Frankfurter Strasse to Limburg an der Lahn ), as well as to the south ( Koblenzer Strasse to Puderbach and Dierdorf ) and west ( Kölner Strasse to Hennef and Siegburg ) branched off at the ends off Wilhelmstrasse. With the construction of the inner-city bypass ( Quengelstrasse ), which was completed in 1982, Wilhelmstrasse was redesigned into a pedestrian zone over the next five years.
The northern section of Wilhelmstraße is structurally included in the Schloßplatz , which was completely redesigned with the construction of the main building of the Kreissparkasse Altenkirchen in the 1990s , the northern part of which, again narrowed to the width of the street, corresponds to "Blücherplatz", which was renamed Schloßplatz in 1996 . The new building was also the trigger for the construction of the underground car park under the square, the access to which is at the northern end of today's Wilhelmstrasse. In terms of traffic, Wilhelmstrasse and the surrounding parking lots are connected to Saynstrasse, Wallstrasse / Marktstrasse, Mühlengasse, Quengelstrasse and Weyerdamm, as well as a bus stop on Quengelstrasse. In 2014 it was decided to completely redesign the pedestrian zone ( Wilhelmstrasse / Marktplatz ); the new appearance should include a kind of amphitheater on the market square.
history
Wilhelmstrasse has probably had its character as a main street since the reconstruction of Altenkirchen after 1728, when the entire city was destroyed by a fire and only the castle, the church and a few private houses remained. Around 1815 Altenkirchen became part of Prussia and the Altenkirchen district was created. From 1822 the city was increasingly connected to the transport network. The naming of Wilhelmstrasse - like all other streets in the city center, such as Marktplatz, Marktstrasse, Mühlengasse, Quengelstrasse, Rathausstrasse and Schloßplatz - took place after the great fire on April 23, 1893. The name goes back to Wilhelm I , the King of Prussia.
Development on Wilhelmstrasse
Due to the destruction caused by the city fire of 1893, there are only a few older buildings on Wilhelmstrasse, such as the Privileged Pharmacy . The number of buildings from the late 19th and early 20th centuries in the style of late classicism , Wilhelminian style architecture and homeland security architecture was also significantly decimated by the bombing on March 7, 1945. In addition to the rebuilt and z. Some of the buildings from this period, which have been restored, are largely made up of simple residential and commercial buildings from the post-war period .
