Tuschen beiden Brücken

The section between Leitergasse and Milchkannengasse was called: around 1440 versus strues lignorum (from the old ash and tar yard located here — burned down in 1449), in the 17th century Alte Stadthofgasse, in 1643 — only the western side — Hinter der Langen Brücke, in 1805 — only the western side — Brückengasse, in 1643 — only the eastern side — longa platea. 2. The section between Milchkannengasse and Kuhbrücke was called: around 1440 tuschen beiden Brücken (between the two bridges), in 1643 together with part of Milchkannengasse — after the hop barns standing here — already Hopfengasse, in the 17th century together with Münchengasse — after the flax scales standing here at the corner of both lanes — Flachsgasse, in 1770 Nonnengasse bey der Flachswaage (Nuns' Lane by the Flax Scales). 3. The section from Kuhbrücke to Thornsche Gasse was only built up after 1440 and was called Aschhofgasse in the 17th century (after the new ash yard built beyond Thornsche Gasse in 1449); by 1643 it was already counted as part of Hopfengasse. By the end of the 18th century the name Hopfengasse prevailed along the entire length of the lane, initially in the form Lange Hopfengasse. Even after the war, the old name translated into Polish was retained.
