Trägerplatz

Created in the mid-17th century, it was initially called Dritte Adebargasse (Third Stork Lane). In the 19th century it became Trägerplatz. Already in 1854, when this lane was counted as part of Weidengasse, two properties here belonged to the merchant Hermann von Kolkow, who had also rendered particular service to poor relief. Ultimately the lane was named after him in 1908. After the war, the lane was renamed to Królikarnia (Rabbit Warren) and bears this name to this day. When the International Esperanto Congress took place in Warsaw in 1959, there were apparently plans to rename this lane to ul. Zamenhoffa in honor of Ludwik Lejzer Zamenhof. On numerous maps of the time it already appears under this name. Ultimately, however, it was decided to bestow this honor on the former Rossbachweg in Langfuhr — which bears the name to this day.
