It is one of the oldest streets in Neumünster; one still finds there the typical old-Neumünster development!
The street got its name from a publican who had his pub at the Großflecken and had a quick tongue. Hamlet provost "Probst" Jacob Willms drove with a Neumünster delegation in 1846 to the island of Föhr and lodged a complaint with King Christian VIII because he had 'suspended' the Neumünster bailiff Earl von Brockdorff and pleaded to revoke the decision. But "Probst's" rhetorical art couldn't change the Danish king's decision.
