Kehrwiederfleet (explored) - a photo on Flickriver

            Poetisch wird berichtet, der Name hätte seinen Ursprung darin, dass hier die Hamburger und vor allem Hamburgerinnen die zur See fahrenden Männer mit dem Wunsch „Kehr wieder!“ verabschiedet haben, da die Kehrwiederspitze an der Ausfahrt aus dem Hafen in die Elbe hinein lag. Tatsächlich aber ist der Name Kehrwieder in Norddeutschland eine Bezeichnung für eine Sackgasse, und auf dieser schmalen Insel musste man vor dem Bau der Niederbaumbrücke (1880) wieder umkehren, zurück bis zur Brooksbrücke. 
It is poetically reported that the name has its origins in the fact that here the people of Hamburg, and especially the women of Hamburg, greet the men who go to sea with the wish “Come back!” said goodbye because the Kehrwiederspitze was at the exit from the harbor into the Elbe. In fact, the name Kehrwieder is a name for a dead end in northern Germany, and on this narrow island you had to turn around again, back to the Brooks Bridge, before the Niederbaum Bridge was built (1880).
