About Huckarde
Where to stay in Huckarde
The right area depends on your trip — here's what each neighbourhood is best for.
Huckarde has almost nothing in the way of hotels. Anyone booking for this part of Dortmund takes a room in the centre and comes out to Huckarde by road, which suits visitors heading for Haus Wischlingen or the churches of the quarter. Wischlingen carries its own name.
St. Urbanus and St. Christophorus serve the rest, and a stay in Huckarde means ordinary streets rather than any centre of its own.
About Huckarde
What are the main landmarks in Huckarde?
Huckarde's marker is Haus Wischlingen. The house and the Kapelle Wischlingen share the name of Wischlingen, and between them they give the quarter something other than the churches to look at. St. Urbanus is the third name here, and the fourth on the list is St. Christophorus.
Nothing on the list pulls travellers out from central Dortmund on its own, but together the four fix the quarter's map.
What is the history of Huckarde?
Dortmund rose to be the third-largest city in North Rhine-Westphalia after Cologne and Düsseldorf, and its outer quarters were drawn in as it became the largest city of the Ruhr. Huckarde was one of them. The name of Wischlingen survives in Haus Wischlingen and the Kapelle Wischlingen, while St. Urbanus and St. Christophorus mark the older settlement inside the modern quarter.
Where is Huckarde?
Huckarde is one quarter of Dortmund, a city on the Emscher, and Wischlingen with Haus Wischlingen lies inside it.
