Karmarschstraße

Karmarschstraße extends 460 meters from Kröpcke to Friederikenplatz, featuring retail establishments, cafes, and modern commercial buildings along its length.

Ferdinand Wallbrecht initiated the construction of this street in 1879, with the first section completed by 1881 despite local opposition.

The street bears the name of Karl Karmarsch, the first director of the Polytechnic School, now known as Hanover Technical University.

The northern section functions as a pedestrian zone, connecting directly to the Kröpcke underground station and multiple public transport links.

The Kröpcke-Center, constructed in 1972, rises 51 meters above the street, marking the location where the Hotel Continental stood before 1943.
