List of Australian place names changed from German names (original) (raw)

About DBpedia

During World War I, many German or German-sounding place names in Australia were changed due to anti-German sentiment. The presence of German-derived place names was seen as an affront to the war effort at the time. The names were often changed by being anglicised (such as Peterborough), or by being given new names of Aboriginal origin (Kobandilla, Karawirra) or in commemoration of notable soldiers (Kitchener and Holbrook) or World War I battlefields (Verdun, The Somme).

dbo:abstract Die Umbenennung deutscher Ortsnamen in Australien erfolgte vor allem im Verlauf des Ersten Weltkriegs. Das Deutsche Reich befand sich im Kriegszustand mit dem Commonwealth of Australia und im Verlauf des Kriegsgeschehens entwickelte sich eine antideutsche Stimmung. Bis dahin waren die deutschen Auswanderer ein anerkannter Teil der australischen Gesellschaft gewesen und hatten einen bedeutenden Anteil am Aufbau Australiens gehabt. Die deutschen Ortsnamen wurden entweder anglifiziert oder wurden durch Ortsnamen der Aborigines ersetzt wie beispielsweise und oder Namen berühmter Personen wie des britischen Feldmarschalls Kitchener oder sie wurden nach den Schlachtfeldern des Ersten Weltkriegs (Verdun und Somme) benannt. Nicht alle deutschen Orte wurden umbenannt, beispielsweise wurde der Ort Hermannsburg im Northern Territory nicht geändert, ebenso wenig der Ort Prenzlau in Queensland. Nach dem Ende des Ersten Weltkriegs gab es zahlreiche Rückbenennungen; eine der ersten erfolgte im Jahr 1920, als der Ort Townsend wieder seinen alten Namen Marburg erhielt und weitere folgten bis zum heutigen Tage. 1935 wurde in South Australia der Nomenclature Act of 1935 erlassen, der die Rückbenennung zahlreicher Orte auf gesicherter gesetzlicher Basis erlaubte. In South Australia, wo die meisten Deutschen siedelten, wurden im Verlauf des Ersten Weltkrieges 64 Orte umbenannt (nach anderen Zählungen 70); in Tasmanien zwei, in Western Australia, Victoria und New South Wales jeweils drei und in Queensland 15.
