The Zurlaubener Ufer - in the vernacular often only briefly Zurlauben or in the Trier dialect also called Zalawen - is the riverside street on the Moselle in Trier in the north district . The road goes back to an old hamlet where mostly fishermen lived. It is the northernmost section of the street directly on the eastern bank of the Moselle in Trier; the section to the south is the Martinsufer .

history

The Zurlaubener Ufer was already being built in the 7th century. The St. Symphorian Monastery was built in Romanesque style between 622 and 640 where the first houses on this street stand . In the year 822 the Normans ravaged the monastery and murdered the 30 Benedictine nuns. The last owner, the Abbey of St. Paulin, let the building fall into disrepair, so that at the end of the 15th century only a few columns could be seen.

Zurlauben was first mentioned in 1261 as “zur Lauffen”, 1238 as “zue lueve” and 1360 as “an der leuwen”. The name has something to do with the word “arbor”, which used to refer to a covered corridor on the upper floor (in the sense of an arbor ) and not arbors standing in front of the houses . Most of the buildings date from the 18th century. The other ancestry can also be recognized in the Trier name Zalawen .

The name "Zur Lauben" appeared for the first time in 1486, "Zur Leuffen" in 1579, "Zur Laywen" in 1742, and "Zur Lauben" in 1787. The construction of the Martinskloster about 200 m from here was significant for the Zurlauben citizens , of which you can only see a wing today, which today contains a student residence. The St. Martin monastery owned a lot of land on the Moselle. Napoleon, however, expropriated the monastery and sold the lands in plots for little money to the citizens of Zurlauben. At the end of the 17th century, the houses were built after the old buildings were destroyed by the French. Some houses were renovated between 1775 and 1795, as evidenced by the many year inscriptions above the house entrances.

The houses formed a small fishing village from the 17th century. Each of the houses had little gardens facing the Moselle. Even today you can find the old smoking ovens in some houses, in which the fish were once smoked. At the end of the meadow there was once a retaining wall, which in 1930 fell victim to the embankment for the dam. The rustic character of the Zurlaubener Ufer has been preserved to this day.

Cultural monuments

There are a total of 17 cultural monuments on the Zurlaubener Ufer . The old town house of Zurlauben, which was built between 1780 and 1850 , is no longer preserved because it was not rebuilt after it was destroyed in the war.

economy

Today there are many restaurants and pubs with beer gardens in the front gardens in the old fishermen's houses.

In Zurlauben there is also the landing stage for passenger traffic on the Moselle. Every year the famous Zurlauben Heimatfest takes place in Zurlauben, which is one of the major regional wine festivals on the Moselle and the end of which is the Trier fireworks in flames . Since 2012 there has also been a spring wine festival in April .
