About Linden-Süd
Where to stay in Linden-Süd
Each area has its own feel; here's who each one suits.
The pull here is museums, not mattresses. A day spent on the Sprengel Museum, the August Kestner Museum and the Beginenturm ends with the rooms concentrated in central Hannover, which leaves Linden-Süd as ground to walk rather than to sleep on. Families have one reason to stay closer: the Kindermuseum Zinnober.
Everyone else books the centre.
About Linden-Süd
What are the main landmarks in Linden-Süd?
Museums first. The Sprengel Museum and the August Kestner Museum carry the largest collections on the list, with the Feuerwehrmuseum Hannover, the Kindermuseum Zinnober and the Freiwillige Feuerwehr Hannover, Ortsfeuerwehr Linden filling in behind them. Older stone follows: the Beginenturm, the Beginenhaus and Burg Lauenrode.
Churches run to the Basilica St. Clemens, the Erlöserkirche and the Reformed church in Hannover, while Leineinsel Klein-Venedig and Flusswärts 2 sit apart from all of it.
What is the history of Linden-Süd?
Memorials do most of the historical work here. The Mahnmal am Bahnhof Fischerhof and the Denkmal für die 1945 in Hannover ermordeten Zwangsarbeiterinnen und KZ-Insassen record the murder of forced labourers and camp prisoners in that year, with the Ehrenfriedhof am Maschsee-Nordufer set aside as further memorial ground. Names from further back appear too.
The Göttingen Seven, the Carl-von-Alten memorial and the Julius-Trip-Denkmal each attach a person or a group to Linden-Süd, though the entry dates none of them.
Where is Linden-Süd?
Water enters the record only through Leineinsel Klein-Venedig; the rest of what Linden-Süd carries is street, church plot and museum floor.
