Norderstedt (Northern Low Saxon: Noordersteed) is a city in Germany and part of the Hamburg Metropolitan Region (Metropolregion Hamburg), the fourth largest city (with approximately 84,100 inhabitants as of 2023)[2] in the federal state of Schleswig-Holstein, belonging to the district Segeberg.

History

[edit]

Norderstedt was created by the merger of four villages on 1 January 1970: the villages of Friedrichsgabe and Garstedt, both belonging to the district Pinneberg, and the villages of Glashütte and Harksheide, both belonging to the district Stormarn. The newly created city was assigned to the district Segeberg.

Norderstedt is served by the Autobahn (federal motorway) A 7/E 45 via exit number 23 Hamburg-Schnelsen-Nord (Norderstedt-Süd), located on Hamburg territory, in the southwest, and exit number 21 Quickborn in the northwest. Major thoroughfares are the federal highways B 432 in west-east and B 433 in north-south directions.

The closest airport is that of Hamburg (IATA airport code HAM), whose runway 33 extends across the state border into Norderstedt.

However, the north-south AKN railway line A2 operated by AKN Eisenbahn, which runs between Ulzburg Süd in the north and Norderstedt Mitte in the south, services the city. Norderstedt Mitte is also the northern terminus of the Hamburg underground line U1 and an interchange point for a variety of busses. Travel time from Hamburg Central Station to Norderstedt Mitte is 40 minutes. The other two stations of the U1 line in the city of Norderstedt are Richtweg and Garstedt.[3]
