Named after Dingelstädter Straße, which recalls the Thuringian town of Dingelstädt.
Dingelstädt is a small town in the Eichsfeld in Thuringia, first mentioned in the 9th century; its name points to an old Germanic ‘Thing’ site, a place of judgement. The street, first called ‘Straße 114’, was named in 1927. It is the main axis of a 1920s housing estate that shares its name.
