Linden-Limmer

Linden-Limmer is a city district in Hanover divided into four distinct quarters: Linden-Mitte, Linden-Nord, Linden-Süd, and Limmer, each with its own character. These neighborhoods vary in structure and appearance, creating a diverse overall district.

The district began in 1100 as a village centered around a count's court and later became an industrial center. It joined Hannover in 1920 and significantly shaped the city's growth.

The Lindener Butjer sculpture embodies local pride and shows how a once-insulting term became a symbol of identity. The name recalls the workers and craftspeople who shaped this area and left marks visible throughout the neighborhood today.

The district has good bus connections and is easily accessible by public transportation. Visitors can find various gathering places and local meeting spots that shape daily life in the area.

The Lindener Marktplatz is the birthplace of philosopher Hannah Arendt and remains a key community gathering place. At this central square, residents and visitors meet for various occasions and events.
