Norderstedt is a city in Germany and part of the Hamburg Metropolitan Region (Metropolregion Hamburg), the fifth largest city (with approximately 75.000 inhabitants) in the federal state of Schleswig-Holstein, belonging to the district (Kreis) Segeberg.

History

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

Location

The city hall of Norderstedt is located at 53°42′29″N 9°59′37″E / 53.70806°N 9.99361°E / 53.70806; 9.99361. Norderstedt is the southernmost city of district Segeberg, bordering in the southeast on Hamburg and part of Hamburg agglomeration.

Norderstedt is served by the Autobahn (federal motorway) A7/E45 via exit number 21 Hamburg-Schnelsen-Nord (Norderstedt-Süd), located on Hamburg territory, in the south, and exit number 23 Quickborn in the north. Major thoroughfares are the Bundesstrassen (federal highways) B432 in west-east and B433 in north-south directions.
