The Ritterbrunnen is a short street in the city center of Braunschweig, in the historical district of Hagen.
Documentary evidence of a "Ridderborn" in the eastern city center area, still within the Okerring, dates back to 1328. A document states: "twe huse de liggen bi dem ridderbornen." The name is derived on the one hand from "Ridder" for knight and on the other hand from the old word "Born" for well. The "Born" was a small side arm of the Oker, which may have flowed here from the Klint in the nearby Magni district along the knightly farms on Bohlweg towards the north. Since this watercourse flowed past the farms of the local knighthood, it was called "Ritterborn." This name was later transferred to the short street that was established there.
