Ochsengasse

Oborniki

History

The lane is already listed in the oldest inheritance register around 1400, though without a name. From 1581 onward it is always mentioned with its current name, which derives from stables located in the lane. No older records have survived.

After the war it was called Oborniki (Dung Lane) for several years before disappearing permanently around 1950.
