Ottersbek

The Ottersbek is a creek in the Hamburg district Eimsbuettel.

It has its origins at the end of cul de sac Deepenstöcken and flows between the streets " Eidelstedter path " / " Unnastraße " and " Lutterothstraße " / " Am Weiher " to Isebekkanal into which it discharges between oak and Goebenstraße. It has a length of 1.6 km, is said to have possessed a Nebengraben and is today the only discernible influx of Isebek, which was extended to the channel. This led to the Alster.

The brook, still the street name Ottersbekallee commemorates one of the Eimsbüttler Park is today largely piped. Above Slit-shaped interruptions of the tenement buildings in the streets and in some cases can even below the pond guess the underground course. Open visible, only the first 300 m, 200 m more than long, narrow pond in Eimsbüttler Park ( " Pond " ) between the Ottersbekallee and the road in the woods, and also the last 100 m before the confluence with the Isebekkanal. When the hamburgische Senator and later mayor Ascan Wilhelm Lutteroth 1832 Eimsbütteler wood bought out partially, he created the Eimsbüttler Park, including the pent-up fish ponds Ottersbek.
