history

First mention and name

The place was originally laid out as a heap village and was first mentioned as Wallestorpe in 1139 in a document from the knight Trutbert that is still preserved today . The name changed in 1187 in Wolestorpe , 1313 in Woldesttorpe and 1420 in Woldestorp . This became Wolstorf and finally Wulsdorf . Wol or Wolde could have originated from the Frisian term for swampy area.

Village until the 19th century

Dionysius Church on Jedutenberg

Evidence of older settlements in the Stone, Bronze and Roman Ages have been handed down. As in Lehe, there was also a Jedutenberg , a man-made view in order to be able to recognize Norman incursions on the Weser side in the 9th century. The old Wulsdorfers called the guard hill Am Jedutenberg in the old town center (today southern district of Jedutenberg) also de Borch , perhaps because there was also a permanent house here.

In 1139 the Benedictine monastery " St. Paul vor der Stadt Bremen " was given goods and land from Wulsdorf and other places in the area. At the time, Welle also belonged to the historic parish, which was in the Stotel district and is now a district of Lanhausen . The Romanesque stone church with west tower and free-standing bell tower was a fortified church from the 12th century, which was first mentioned in 1138. It should have been higher earlier. In 1463 it was reported as the Dionysius Church Wulsdorf , which sealed a certificate from Vieland.

Around 1500 the village belonged to Vieland , a judicial district and later office to which Bramel , Geestendorf and Schiffdorf also belonged and which is still remembered today by the Vieländer Weg. In the Middle Ages, Vieland was part of the secular possession of the Diocese of Bremen , when the Archbishops of Bremen succeeded in creating a territory around Bremen that they ruled from the 11th century .

In 1648, due to the Peace of Westphalia, the Archdiocese of Bremen - and so also Wulsdorf - came under Swedish sovereignty as part of the Swedish Duchy of Bremen . In 1712 Wulsdorf and the Duchy of Bremen came to Denmark and in 1715 it was sold to the Electorate of Braunschweig-Lüneburg . From then on, Wulsdorf shared the history of the state of Hanover and, from 1866, the Prussian province of Hanover. In 1753 there were 100 campfire sites in the rural village and in 1850 the around 600 residents lived in mostly thatched-roof houses around the old church. The farmhouse Allersstrasse 27 from this period is remarkable . From 1779 Wulsdorf belonged to the Stotel-Vieland office.

During the French period in Bremen , Wulsdorf formed a municipality under French law in what was then the canton of Bremerlehe for three years . In addition to Wulsdorf, this community also included Geestendorf, Schiffdorf and Bramel, until the Stotel-Vieland office was finally restored after the victory over Napoleon .

From the rural community to the district

Altwulsdorf School from 1866

From 1831 to 1885 Wulsdorf then belonged to the Lehe office until the place was incorporated into the newly formed Geestemünde district in 1885 . In 1840 Wulsdorf got the status of a rural community , from whose area the district of the same name was formed in 1876 .

The road to Beverstedt was built around 1850 . At its confluence, the Lindenstrasse to Weserstrasse (mostly also called Chaussee), another new center of the place gradually developed. In 1856 the mill builder Carl Wegener built a gallery Dutch windmill on the Sandfahrel for the baker Heinrich Jantzen . The mill was bought by the mayor Johann Nicolaus Brakhahn (1819–1906) in 1860.

The development of the ports in Geestemünde and Bremerhaven also gave Wulsdorf a strong boost. For the workers from the neighboring ports, inexpensive building land could be found here; the place grew continuously. Netting, ice cream, canning, hemp and rope factories and a brewery were built. The Chaussee (today Bundesstraße 6 ) to Geestendorf, Geestemünde and Bremerhaven had to be expanded. After the church cemetery had become too small, the Hackfahrel cemetery , the Alt-Wulsdorfer Friedhof , was built in 1865 west of the church . In 1866 the Altwulsdorf school on Schulstrasse (from 1920 on Sandbredenstrasse) received a new building.

In 1870/71, with the consent of Prussia, the Bremerhaven cemetery was built in Wulsdorf for the deceased from old Bremerhaven, which had no space for it on its territory. The cemetery was built according to plans by the garden architect Wilhelm Benque . In 1888 the neo-Romanesque chapel was added. The postal agency opened in 1876. The Wulsdorf Voluntary Fire Brigade was founded in 1892 . 1891, the schoolhouse was at the Weserstraße created, which the old building of about 1932 so designated today Spruce school is. From 1891 the Bremerhaven horse-drawn tram ran from Geestemünde to the border with Wulsdorf.

In 1896 the Wulsdorfer Chaussee was led over a new railway bridge (ramp) to Geestemünde on Georgstraße . In 1894/94 the Villa Busse was built at Weserstraße 237 , later Villa Schlotterhose in the Swiss house style of the neo-renaissance . It was not until 1899 that the place received a train station (today a freight yard) for the Bremen-Geestemünde railway line, which had existed since 1862 . 1905 opened the Crown Pharmacy Julius Fielitz. In 1908 the tram depot was put into operation. From 1908 to 1960 an electric tram line ran through Wulsdorf, which connected the district with Geestemünde and the fishing port and which was extended to a small train station in 1911. In 1910, 2000 citizens demonstrated in Schwiefer's garden for fairer suffrage in Prussia. From 1911 a small train ran from Wulsdorf to Farge ( Niederweserbahn ). The railway line, which was partially closed in 1931 and completely closed in 1938, was reactivated between 1943 and 1945 as far as Sandstedt due to the war. In 1912 the rural advanced training school of 1896 developed into the trade school. In 1913 the first gas lanterns stood on Weserstrasse. Since 1916 the place had its post office on Weserstraße. The popular excursion destination was Café Simon an der Chaussee. There is a high-rise building here today.

Wulsdorf near Geestemünde, Wesermünde and Bremerhaven

Due to the space requirements of the neighboring town of Geestemünde to the north, Wulsdorf was separated from the district on April 1, 1920 and incorporated into the district-free town of Geestemünde. It came in 1924 as a district to the Prussian Wesermünde and in 1947 to Bremerhaven in the state of Bremen .

In 1927 the 33 m high residential water tower Wulsdorf , which also served to supply the fishing port, was completed. In 1935, today's Liethbreden settlement was created on Poggenbruchstrasse as a result of what was then the work front . In 1936 a fire destroyed nine buildings, including six old farmhouses. In 1938 the construction of the Wulsdorf industrial estate began with the first residential buildings. The new waterworks opened in 1939. Four sports clubs merged to form the Turn-Sport-Verein Wulsdorf from 1861.

During the Second World War , Wulsdorf was largely spared from bombing raids. After the surrender of the Wehrmacht, the British 51st (Highland) Division marched through Weserstraße on May 8, 1945 at 2:30 p.m.

In 1949 the Niederweserbahn (formerly Kleinbahn Farge-Wulsdorf ) began operating between Wulsdorf and Sandstedt with a diesel multiple unit . 1957 was the consecration of the new Evangelical Lutheran. Martin Luther Church on Blumenthaler Strasse. In 1959 she was consecrated to the Catholic Church. St. Nikolauskirche on Lützowstraße by Bishop Heinrich Maria Janssen . In 2012 the building was demolished. In 1960 tram line 3 was given up in favor of a bus line.

In 1971 Wulsdorf became a district through a redistribution of the districts in Bremerhaven.

The Federal Motorway 27 has had free travel since 1974 . Wulsdorf is accessed via the Bremerhaven-Wulsdorf exit on the B 71 and Bremerhaven-Süd / Nesse on the B 6.
