Mittelgasse

In this lane, which was traversed lengthwise by a ditch, the two sides were initially named differently: the northern side was called 1. Grabengasse, the southern side 1. Adebargasse. In the second half of the 18th century, the entire lane was then called Kuschenecke. This expression could derive either from a personal name or from the Prussian dialect word Kosch or Kusch, meaning pig. From 1814, it was called Mittelgasse. Between 1910 and 1935, Mittelgasse and Strandgasse were merged and then listed under the name Strandgasse until 1945.
